Quote Ferocious Aardvark="Ferocious Aardvark"Well, we signed him, and then paid him lots and lots of money for not being fit enough to play. He took his case to a tribunal but lost.
Sounds like an obvious stitch-up to me.'"
Well he was never the answer to our prayers was he, though he started off OK and looked to be an asset when he scored, what was it nine tries in ten games(?), even if his defence did look a bit on the insecure side. I do find it hard to blame him for getting injured.
It was, to be honest, unfortunate and something which neither party (club or player) would have wanted. It`s disappointing that it ended as it did with litigation. Personally I don`t want to go down the road of bagging someone who was largely caught in a situation not of his making. Hopefully he`ll get his career back on track.
