Thank for the mention Neil - you well know that I am a Harris fan. Any man with the ability he has will surely lead us out of this mini crisis much stronger. Please Follow me on Twitter as I have some news on a very young player already courted by Saints, Wires & the Pies & hope you will pass on his details to Mr Gleeson.

Castleford is a small TOWN in Wakefield.keep it up and we sue .

My thoughts exactly, I feel like we are lurching from from one bad thing to another. Sorry about and for Kevin Locke, he looked class.

It's a strange one this. From what I can read, Locke has tended his resignation... That doesn't mean it will be accepted. I thought if you had a contract, you couldn't just hand in your notice and go and play elsewhere. Or have I got it all wrong?

Looking at it from a purley rugby point of view, I'm not that fussed about Locke leaving.

I think it was always on the cards. It was just a matter of when.

We already have a ready made replacement in Evalds who's younger, cheaper, Englisher and far less injury prone.

All being well, Evalds will have No.1 shirt at Salford for the foreseeable future.

Could this be an unprecedented situation? I can t ever recall a player resigning before.

Salford have to accept the resignation, and doing so (even verbally) will legally nullify the remaining responsibilities of both parties - what I imagine is currently going on is a negotiation between Salford and Lockes representatives, to have a conditional acceptance found (aka we'll accept the resignation if you drop the lawsuit).

Once the acceptance is agreed, Locke will then be free to take up any deal another club may offer him, assuming they don't violate the terms of the acceptance.

At least that is my current understanding on the matter, it is certainly not an everyday issue...

Surely this can't be right. What if Roanldo did this at Real Madrid. If they had to accept it surely the player could command a much higher salary because there would be no transfer fee. Surely the club the holds the registration of the player for the full contract term.

According to KL's solicitor just on the radio KL has "accepted a repudiatory breach by the club"

As I understand it that means he is claiming that the club have breached the contract in such a serious way as to effectively terminate it.

Presumably it either ends in court or with some compromise agreement between player and club

Why would Real Madrid accept Ronaldos resignation? Usually there is no motivation (though they may accept he's not happy and agree to transfer list him).

The difficulty here is the player (supposedly) has leverage in the unpaid salary - and there's the whole business of koukash telling the press he's free to leave.

25-24 to "the village people" tonight.

Seriously it shows what can be done if you build slowly and create genuine team spirit and a good club culture.

Not going to say much more as several Salford posters (understandably) don't like rival fans coming on here with opposing views.

Young man there's a place you can go.

If locke is owed money as he claims, then the club could be said to be in breach of contract and so locke could resign from that contract.

Laughable. We are a joke club. We're not becoming one, it's done.

I think we have been a joke club for quite a few years.
