Spotted at Odslum this morning

, Why would he want to take a step back in his career ?

Probably the same reason that Jamie Peacok did, more money.

No such place. Grow up.

Typo corrected!

JP won two CCs at Bradford. And the MOS. And three WCCs. And three SLs. And a LLS.

No, more Money. He wanted more money, then he was told he wasn't getting it and then decided he would get in a paddy and join Leeds.

IIRC He said he was told by the club that there was no more money available, he said he'd stay anyway, and the club then proceeded to buy Iestyn Harris. I think I'd have been pretty annoyed too.

That's what he clearly states in his book also,either way your loss was definately our gain!!

I know he did but he could see what was coming and thought it'd be best to go where he could win trophies without them being tarnished by caisley cheating the cap!!!!!

And meanwhile, back in the present day, are we to believe that Brough is signing for us or not?

Yeah so he left because he wasnt gettingthe money he wanted.

I haven't got a clue mate,if the best young british coach in the game is keeping his job then the thorman stories are more likely to be true rather than the brough ones plus he;s still under contract next year and i suspect he'd cost you a fair whack.

He was promised then told there wasn't any!!!!

Yawn. Only six more weeks til school starts. You looking forward to big school?

Yeah, there wasnt any to pay him what he wanted, so he left because he wanted more coin and because he wasn't getting his own way.

Its between you and Saints.

How do you know Emma?

Do you work at GCHQ or do you have a hot line to the man himself?

Those are not coded insults btw, I'm just interested to know.

Apparently. I can't imagine why he would ever choose Saints over us.

Me neither. It wouldn't surprise me if the Tomkins brothers felt a bit enamoured towards a career at Odsal after yesterday.

I have a VERY good source.

I assume that paying players these offshore payments doesn't count as "cheating the cap"?

Until anything is proved or we are found to have breached any cap rules then obviously not!!

dont think he was refering to leeds but if the cap fits....

Seems to have touched a nerve there

Never suggested you did. Was just wondering if you thought it counted. You've obviously thought about it with regards to your club though eh?
