Thank you

If you were about to take over the role of player and assistant coach at a championship side...
Wouldn't you make it your concern to learn a little about the championship competition before hand and perhaps something about your new clubs main opposition ahead of the coming season?....DOH?



He aint going Widnes

Paying a transfer fee for Sinfield [iand[/i Myler!... Not made of money are we? Or will we be knocking on Morans door with a bunch of flowers and puppy dog eyes again?

Are transfer fees part of the S CAP?

No dont think so anyway

I don't care about the individuals we will/wont sign and how good they are, so long as they all play as a team for one another.

I am fed up of Wire signing world class individuals who can not play as a world class team............but, in TS we trust.

I read somewhere that it is deemed part of the salary cap, but I could be wrong

no it aint


It is what it says.....'SALARY cap'...not 'buying out a contract including players salary cap!'

My post does look harsh...i guess it was a little patronising. For that i'm sorry gogreen.

I'M sure wigan were penalised on the sallary cap c/o fieldens transfer fee!
not positive however, mmm interesting!

It wasn't his transfer fee. It was the fact they just stopped paying all their players so they wouldn't go over.

tells you there

that tells me they deferred payment of wages and were penalised for that, nowt was said about why they tried to defer payments apart from exhisting contracts, does that include fielden?
stop hitting me on the head it's irritating

I don't think we will let Briers go. We can't win without him. An international coach will see this.

i heard that moran had taken myler to watch oasis as part of a concerted effort to lure him to warrington. i really hope we get him. we have been lacking a really talented british half back for years!! he would match up to burrow!

with offiah being his agent just makes me feel that he will end up somewhere else.

York 79

Moran = Brown nose!!

Surely this was mentioned in another thread the other day?????

Can't see that mate...............I love where all these rumours are coming from though its becoming funnier and funnier

Not really. I don't know if you have a job but people are often nice to people that they're trying to recruit/do business with.

Speak of SJM, he was on MTV's flagship show 'The Hills' last Sunday night.

Agents are all the same....its not about whats good for his client...its about what percentage the agent can make out of the deal.
Just because Offiah played at Wierdnes and the Pies doesn't mean he will have his client play for them.

First thing is that that Salford have his contract, not Offiah.
Myler doesn't have to leave until his contract is over, but not too unlike Gleeson, once his contract is over, then he's off to wherever he wants and the club gets in respect peanuts for him.
It would probably be in Offiah's intrest to get Myler to see out his contract, it certainly wont be in Salfords!
Trust me, Salford want(or have) a settlement, they don't have the money to arrange a contract extension.

Offiah's cut will come from a percentage of how much he can negotiate a contract for Myler and any merchandising.

O rly?

Trust me the signing fee for Myler's contract is already agreed. The figure Salford want is £250,000. It's thought Warrington have agreed to pay that, Wigan however have not but have shown interest. Concidering that Myler only has less than a year to the next contract tampering date then that is a big price.
The Gleeson deal was only £100,000 and he had almost two years left on his contract.

It's nothing new that Warrington have paid a big fee before, remember that Warrington have already paid £220,000 for Gleeson when he had only a season and a half left on his contract.
In that deal, Warrington became the first club in almost two years to sign a player for a fee!

The daily noises coming from Offiah at the moment is because he wants clubs to thrash it out so he and his client get more money.
As I said Salford want to sell, and sell fast, but they can't get a deal until Offiah is sure that he has run this course the full distance and has gotten every penny he and Myler can get from it.
