That would be tapping him up. He's under contract. Got to approach the club first.

Bearing in mind the libellous allegations against our club,thus far,and the fact that Bradford have a special place in the heart of the RFL it was best that the club,under the circumstances,were seen to be whiter than white and purer than pure or we may have had to deal with rlTHISrl and wait for rlTHISrl
With everything out in the open and above board the club can now negotiate with the agent and player if they so desire.
We really shouldn't believe everything we read in the press.

OK then ask permission from Bradford to talk with the players agent first to find out if the player is remotely interested before wasting everybody's time with transfer discussions.

Everybody's time?? How much of your time was wasted during this transfer discussion?

Are you ever happy or do you just like to moan? If so, go and moan some place else please.

We are trying to sign players to improve us. It is not an easy task as we are not fashionable. Even with money! Whether we whisper that we're trying to sign someone or shout it - the fact is we are trying to sign people!!

Where's that facepalm emoticon?

Why have Bradford announced EW will not be joining Salford ? Surely Salford should be the club making the statement.

Hello again Mr Obsessed Cas fan.

And I suggest if you are too sensitive to read honest criticism about how I think the club could have handled the situation more professionally, you may be better some place else. This is a forum for views and discussion, it's not a back slapping party.

Hello again. Care to answer ?

"Unfashionable" what a ridiculous term. All Salford can be accused of is a lack of super league success.

Are you telling me that Warrington were fashionable a few years ago despite having won nothing for years....not a chance. The best player will always want to go to clubs capable of winning trophies and to achieve that takes time. It has nothing to do with fashion.

I would have thought by now Salford would have learnt several lessons about dealing with the media and all the can be accused of (if indeed the Salford are to be blamed) is blowing their trumpet to early and perhaps needs to start going about their business in a quieter manner.

Start winning trophies and the best player will want to come simple as that.

I think we should remind ourselves that the Bradford general manager is the person quoted in the Bradford paper.
He apparently spoke to the French club as far back as Monday,heard nothing since and they haven't met the valuation, as far as I can see.

Here again is the latest press release rlBradford Paper Story am Todayrl

Best just wait for confirmation from our club.
Still some way to go in this,me thinks.
I cannot see a general manager being privy to talks between those now involved;if Whitehead has the courtesy to at least listen.

This is just a wild stab in the dark but possibly because he's still a Bradford player.

Speaking of announcements and so forth, you'll presumably be apologising for your posts about Salford having tapped up Whitehead I guess?

You seem to spend 90% of your time posting about Salford. So just thought I'd welcome you to our board again as you don't seem to have posted on here for a day or so.
