| Quote: Exeter Rhino "Diskin was one of the 'magnificent seven' who signed an extension with Leeds last season, then he signed for Bradford. You can understand why some fans might be upset given the chain of events.'"
He signs a year extensioon.
Then gets told by the chairman that they are signing someone "better" on a bigger wage and so he doesn't have a future.
So he signs for someone else.
Oh yes, what a Judas.
BOOOOOOOOOO.

It's not like he did a Fielden is it?'"
I'm far from sure Fielden was at fault. Given the financial implosion at the time I don't find it too hard to think he was 'encouraged' to sign for the pies, just so we could rake in the transfer fee and make some headway into balancing the books. I might be wrong but I wouldn't put money on it.

At least his transfer brought some much needed cash into the club, rather than our other illustrate prop who decided to run out his contract and leave for our biggest rivals, then belly aching in his book that it was Caisley who made him leave the club, bearing in mind said illustrate fore-mentioned prop said well before leaving us that he was going to end his career over the border at the shed, as well as a stint in the nrl! Not bad going for the player who was 29 at the time!

JP was born in late 1977 so he'd have been around 26, maybe nearly 27, when he went to the dark side. I've always put his loss down to 'Harrisgate' to be honest, but for that I'm sure money would have been found to keep such a talented player who was still very much in his prime. It's a pity the people running the club at the time didn't consider the consequences of putting so many salary cap eggs in so few baskets as, IIRC we still had Robbie on the back end of his mega contract, when Iestyn arrived on another.
Incidentally, there were some pretty scathing remarks made about our former chairman in Peacock's book, which I'm sure would have been brought to his attention, so it seems strange that there have been no calls for a retraction or libel cases emanating from it, which suggests the details were accurate.
Personally, I have nothing but respect for JP. He gave his all in a Bull's shirt and it was sad that he left in the circumstances he did.

What he did in a Bulls shirt is not at question here! I have nothing but respect for him in that area, what i did have issue with is Feilden gets stick for leaving (pushed) while Peacock gets the messiah treatment for running out his contract then leaving, money may well have been found for a player who actually was committed to stay, lets not forget he had all ways stated he was going to join his home town club at some point, plus having a stint in the NRL in between!
I'd love to believe Peacock in his story but it doesn't seem to ring true at all to me, but who am i to question a living legend, and stick up for the devil like Fielden who should be horse whipped through the streets of Bradford for leaving for £400'000!
Apologies for the maths, the wife did the adding up
Sorry for the confusion Bulliac, should have quoted debaser!
