MK is what he is. I don't think that the PC was a car crash at all. Certainly not compared to what I was dreading.

Not a great deal of news with regards to the playing side of things but a very honest appraisal of what is actually going on financially. I can see why he did it, in that it must be frustrating not being able to counteract accusations that ultimately weaken certain aspects of what he wants to do. Not helped by journos who print every bit of gutter talk on social media.

I'm no MK fanboi, but it's refreshing to see someone in such a position prepared to not lie down and let others wipe their feet on him.

no mention of the 2 world class props?

No mention of any signings, other than the need to not "go for names that just take the money and p*ss on the club" - one of his more eloquent moments . . . ..

This could be a reference to a number of our players.

what specifically did he say? All the reports I have seen from hte press conference say that SRD have accepted Locke's resignation - which would make him a free agent...

Also, what role for Goulding?

Sheens appointment is great news,looks like he will have the final say about Goulding.Marwan should take a back seat now and let Sheens get on with the job.

If everything the Doc said re loans, advanced payments and CSA enforcement then Locke and a few others would seem to be on very dodgy foundations. How a player can take to anti social media and say the club is scum for not paying him when the club have been instructed by the CSA to deduct money from his wages is incredible, does make you wonder if the players who have sort legal advise on this have been entirely honest with their legal counsel.

A little to much swearing for something so important but you get the impression that the Doc has now drawn a line in the sand and will fight all accusations against him/the club.

More should be made of Tim Sheens coming full time, a master stroke for the club and possibly the game as a whole in the UK.

Pretty sure the Doc will be less prone to public brain farts and that Vickers will either shape up or face the trap door.

Harris also to progress massively as a coach, for me our best performances this season were when Sheens was over and I doubt it was a coincidence.

Has Marwan bought St Helens? Sorry has Marwan bought St F***** Helens? I must have missed that part.

A lot of bluster,how long will Sheens last as Director of Rugby because Koucash will not keep is mouth closed,and let him and the coach do what he pays them to do.It seems to me that our owner has to be the story.

That's one opinion.

So you take the best part of the announcement, make it negative then tell us how much you dislike MK?

My sense for sporting bipolar is tingling...

Really? What I heard was Salford has accepted Locke's resignation and that MK hopes he continues in SL but would be setting his legal team on him (amongst every other person he's ever come across) in respect of damages for his resignation.

I don't see how who he plays for from this point has any relevance on him offering his resignation and it being accepted?

So that's what I heard / wanted to hear, what did you hear / want to hear?

That’s how I understood it. Locke is now free to ply his trade elsewhere. However, the club will be pursuing him for damages i.e. compensation for his worth in the market had he been placed on the transfer list.
