I saw someone from up there post that yesterday.AOS59 to Teeside
Ed Waldron spoke about this earlier on in the season.
Talked about trying to make it harder for other clubs to know when players out of contract i.e. not just being able to google a signing announcement.
Not sure how much I particularly bought into that reason, given the amount of chat that goes on between agents, players etc.
It's never too hard to find out from people within the game.
This is barely news. That ship is unsinkable.I have also just heard that the Titanic has struck an iceberg and is in trouble.
Was Dale on it? Heard a rumour he was about to signI have also just heard that the Titanic has struck an iceberg and is in trouble.
I can't see that happening.Was Dale on it? Heard a rumour he was about to sign
Neither could Stevie Wonder....I can't see that happening.
I'm very rarely itk, but I can assure you that kaleb a) is nowhere near rich enough and b) doesn't give a flying f#@k about footie.So if they have Ryan Reynolds' money (with Hollywood's attention) and Robbie Williams wants to do the same with Port Vale - who should we be looking at? Thom Yorke? Kaleb Cooper?
Perhaps their affections will fade and they'll be back to square one.
It's almost as if there is a significant event that will happen in June 2026 that the club don't want to commit anything beyond at the moment...wonder what that could be.Neither can i. That was the point. Odd that we are commiting to substantial transfer fees but not really protecting our investment beyond 2026, save for a few 12 month options on a couple of players.
It's even more strange that the club are not now divulging the length of contracts. Anyone would think they were trying to pull the wool over our eyes.
Is it possible that it's a little bit of both?With respect to Waldron, that is complete BS imo for the reasons that you have given.
If a player is interested in a move or simply wants to put the feelers out there towards the end of his deal, then that is exactly what his agent will do.
I have little doubt that the reason for the lack of transparency, relates much more to the possible stadium move/ground share/liquidation (if no agreement) is found, rather than football clubs googling players contract lengths.
How?! Until it's official, we can still screw it up!@greatunclekip got it wrong - WOW!!!
