I was thinking about Aston this morning, then i wiped my ars£ and carried on my day.

Does anyone else think that "Rotherham Fev Fan" has too much to say on this subject?

Is he Mark Aston in disguise???

get me posts up!! - behave!!!!

For reasons I don't want to disclose thus far, I have a particular interest in this case!!!

I'm neither pro Fax or Sheff as you'll see by my posts. I'm objective and have an interest - that's why I've contributed more to this thread than any other on here.


Get my posts up indeed!!!!! Gerraway wi thi man!!!

and as you say, this is a risk he will have to run. He obviously thinks it's worth taking!
He may well look a right @rse throughout all this to everyone in RL barring Sheffield, but he's looked an @rse afoore! It'll not stop him.
Now - the possibility of losing money on an expensive law suit - that will make the rotund one stop dead in his tracks - trust me!!

daft sod!

To think clearly on this you need to take the result out of it! Sheffield only let Barlow leave for Fax on one condition... That was broke and Sheffield are entitled to take action (also based on rest of season since he left) Aston is a muppet we all no that but that's also due to having his CEO hat on aswell remember!

If only! I'm a nurse Bob!! completed all the studying I need some years ago! My masters was my last - sod that at my age!

I just have an interest in this case. I think it will die a death eventually - cost and prep will be massive and I don't think he'll take that on unless absolutely certain - or daft - or both! Just a hunch like!

Everybody's jolly knowledgeable about Sam's contract!

And has no one heard of no win, no fee lawyers ?

I suppose Sheffield are within their rights but it is sad they are taking things so far.
Like I have put before it seems RL is a world of kicking your rival club whenever you can and very publicly.
Thats the bit that annoys me, RL needs good news stories not bad press.

I guess you have all the documentation to hand? Remember Halifax & Sam haven't denied this deal and his 'celebration' eluded to a contract being broken!

In terms of playing him Fax dud the right thing by going directly to the RFL but on a legal matter it's very quiet... Maybe waiting until Sundays outcome before throwing Aston a bone?

I do say, you seem to be taking this matter rather lightly.

Imagine if the situation was reversed, you'd take it as far as possible as well.

I'm no legal expert, the RFL stayed out of it as the contract was agreed between the clubs and player.

If Halifax win, no harm done.

If Sheffield win, the RFL will be forced to step in as it will be proved Fax played an ineligible player (again).

Worst case scenario is a points deduction for 2011, most likely Fax will get a fine and the player a ban.
