As it goes, I didn't suggest that Cas offered Millward a 'huge' sum of money - just that they offered more than WTW did, which was an offer that they felt reflected his worth. Personally, I'm glad we stood our ground - if he was good enough to make big wage demands, someone else would have had him away from Leigh before now.
Time will tell if Cas' desperation has lead them to take on an overpaid dud, or not.'"
Ok fair enough no link, but how the hell do you know what Cas offered him never mind what Wakey offered, there have been alot of in the know people on these boards recentley and most of them have had one thing in common, they all know nothing.

I didn't say he was - I said time will tell if offering him more money than we were prepared to pay will be a good decision or not.

| I don't know why you think or know that Tigers offered IM more than Wakey did but when you read his recent interview he states the junior development process as been one of the main factors for taking the job.
Anyway - its all guesswork on here - but one question.
If (as some on here always like to remind us) Cas Tigers are skint and Wakey are now the Chelsea of SL (A Glover spending up to the full salary cap/ground improvements worth 500K) why did you allow your "country cousins" to out bid you ?

Maybe because he wasn't one of the 3 to be shortlisted?

I know that Cas offered him more than WTW because I'm a functioning, intelligent adult and I know that these people, like all people, are in it for the money - they go to whomever offers them the most, in all but the rarest of circumstances.
As for the last question, I've answered it twice already; I believe we offered him what we thought he was worth and weren't prepared to go higher - Cas were. The wisdom of both those decisions will be revealed next season by way of results.

Not worth what he asked, just because you have money doesn't mean you just give in to anyone's wage demands, Glover may have money to spend but he's not the Sultan of Brunei.
From what I can make out when Cas offered IM the job Wakey were still interviewing people, maybe he choice to go with the job that was defo on the table for him.
