Must have signed for someone else then!

Yep he no longer has the ban but still has to pay his fine.

That was my thought too!

no..staying with us...from the horses mouth "i am staying loyal!" that is why he turned down hudds! wtf woulde ne want to go to hkr???

His demonstration of loyalty shows a maturity beyond his 22 years.

so glad murphys staying i dont think we can afford to loose anymore players

Is it loyalty, or does he want game time and the chance to show what he can do? I'm not knocking the lad, btw - I'm delighted that he wants to stay with us - but I'm sure he won't be with us next season, and a full season in the spotlight with us will raise his contract bargaining value against other clubs.

defiantly agree not knocking him but does he want to put himself in the shop windown for next year?

New owners. Offer him a renewed contract on dual terms for seasons after this one a sl contract the other a champ contract. That way no matter what happens with franchise we get a fee for him if he leaves as he'll be under contract. Is this possible??

And he can play at the weekend










If he can find his passport?????

Whatever his reasons, I welcome his decision; it's probably fortunate that staying for the rest of the season is expedient for both him and us, but that's not important. Good lad.

yea im glad hes staying at least he adds some super league experience to our squad

very hard to find loyalty in players

do hope we can survive with him

No. As far as I know while you are in SL you can only offer him a SL contract. If you lose your license his SL contract becomes null and void

as he is technically an asset of the club can he refuse to be sold??? after listening to an interview with ferguson today he made it sound like he had no choice in whether he stayed or not

yes he can, you can lead a horse to water but !!!!

well good on him for staying loyal, there's not too many who would have done that they would have looked at their own future and thought they would jump to a more stable ship

Of course he can. No one can force you to take on a job/contract you don't want to take.

Ferguson, like others in the past, will sell it the way they think best. Don't get me wrong, I don't blame the lad for going. He has his future to think of too. For him, this was the best decision. For others, it won't be. I don't care about Dale Ferguson now, he's not one of us. I [ido[/i care about Aaron Murphy. I hope he has a brilliant season with us.

Surely if a players that good he would have stood a decent chance of joining a sl club at the end of the season anyway without jumping ship now

True, but what if he gets injured? What if his season goes down the pan? Who'll come in for him when his SL contract expires and we're playing in the Championship? You never now as a player. Huddersfield had made noises about him even before now, so if he wanted it, now was the time to do it. Not far to drive, stable club, rich owner, decent coach... OK, the jersey looks like a dog's just barfed on it and the fans are crap, but as a wage earner, you'd put up with that, wouldn't you?

nah i'd stay with wakey



seriously though I dont think it would do him any good either sitting in the stands at hudds.

I bet if you asked him that he would not know, I sat at an audience with along with about 200 other fans in the cats bar when he was a guest an every question he answered was er I dont know I've never thought about it, and seemed to me that he is so unaware of things that happen in general and is quite content to carry on doing what he is happiest doing and its no surprise that he is happy to stay with his mates at the club.

Maybe he's a bit shy.

or that he is a quiet person that doesn't enjoy being in that situation?

I don't think he would have been sat in the stands. Right now they have Grix lining up at Fullback.
Much as I like Grix, and would ave him back right now, Murphy is a better fullback.
