[quote="ComeOnYouUll":mq3q7c52]Is he in effect doing what James Clarke was doing - wasn't he doing both roles?[/quote:mq3q7c52] Seems so and that didn't end well. It's not great that Richie will be approving contracts he's drawn up himself, a good CEO would at least be asking the DOR some questions to sense to check that club aren't yet again entering a bad player deal. Do realise that sometimes a Head Coach will demand a certain player regardless of what the DOR and/Or CEO think though.

Maybe Thirkill will be a little more hands on in his Chairman's role than we originally thought.

What’s also written in the Mail is the concept of Swap Deals as it’s pretty damn obvious that Salford need a playing squad !!! That got me thinking real hard ! Lane Fash Sao - surely we can swap these guys out !! Didn’t I read on here someone suggesting Lane as a Marquee signing ? I nearly internally combusted ! Surely we can swap some bang average players out and create some more cap space The League suggesting we can take on an extra Overseas signing if helping Salford and extra salary cap. Interesting to say the least Off load Sao Fash and Lane and get 4 forwards lol

[quote="RockNRolla":2huxlsi0]I'm probably in the minority in saying i wouldn't be too disappointed if we miss out on Sneyd. We already have an organising 7 in Sezer. Would prefer Nikorima for a season and go all out for Will Pryce for next year.[/quote:2huxlsi0] Wouldn't Pryce potentially block the pathway of Charles?

[quote="weaver93":1tm6p7kz]Wouldn't Pryce potentially block the pathway of Charles?[/quote:1tm6p7kz] I’d think they’re different enough to think that long term could be great partnership but from what I’ve seen Pryce could end up playing fullback also. With Pryce though I think it sounds like he’s still got a future in Aus and has impressed in parts. He’s not established himself as starter like KPP but think he just has to work on defence a little, can’t see why he’d want to come back he’ll get opportunities at Newcastle don’t yet have a settled and established first choice 6 and 7.

They are also very keen on a new halfback. I'd like to think if we signed him (which I don't think we will), he would play 6 and Charles and Kemp would be looking to replace Seizer. We definitely need to keep an eye on the Salford situation, it's sad what's happening, but other clubs won't hand around.

In regards to Myler and him being appointed CE and still being the DoR, having worked for and with a few self made millionaires they do not appoint people just because they are family etc, they only appoint people they know have the skills, mindset and ability to do the job. The money comes from hard work they put in and none of the ones I've with have ever thrown it around as they know the value of it. What's clear to me is Thirkill and Hood want/need someone they can and do trust at the club on a daily basis, Myler ticks that box. There'll also be more to the decision than just that, AT & IH will know more about Myler and his skillset than any of us and their judgement in business seems to have served them ok so far. Had it still been AP as the owner then I could see why fans would be concerned about things, its still very early days and no doubt there will be changes going on for some time until the club has Thirkill & Hoods fingerprints all over it and this is just part of the process in doing that.
