| Quote FickleFingerOfFate="FickleFingerOfFate"Maybe it's time for Agar to admit he was wrong to let Ellis go and re-sign him. If it's true that Wood has signed for Hudds, pride hasn't stopped them re-signing a player that they released or he moved on. If you think a player can do a job for you and he fits into your style of play, it's daft not to try and sign him. And from last year Ellis did both. Or do the club think the top eight is gone and will talk about planning for next season and giving the likes of Cowling, Walshaw and Goulding a go.
'"
I thought one of the reasons we let him go was because he was on one of the biggest contract at the club atm, £100 p/year were what was banded around.
Goulding isn't anywhere near ready for SL, played very poorly in his time at Donny.
Eve if we've got a chance for the top 8 or not, Cowling & Walshaw want to be getting game time.

and if that was the case we wouldn't have brought a guy from the other side of the world, sounds rubbish to me.

| Im not sure where, or how he fits into the Giants first team. I would have thought that he would have a much better chance of playing first team with us. I cant help but think that there is more to this than a player wanting to move to further his career.....assuming of course these rumours are true.

I concur, he has had ample opportunities to impress and rarely did. I was starting to think he had something on Agar given his continued selection in the side over better players. Its a shame this meant Trinity lost a decent hooker as a result. Hopefully Wildie will get more of an sustained chance now to show whether he has a SL future.

| As long as he is ultimately replaced by a better player then he won't be missed. In the short term Matty Wildie gets a chance to prove that man is him.

| Quote FickleFingerOfFate="FickleFingerOfFate"Fair point, but maybe it was pointed out to him that he would not be the starting hooker when Aiton recovered for the start of this season.Possibly then, the decision to leave was Ellis's. Unfortunately the coach couldn't or didn't want to see that you can play both Aiton and Ellis on the field at the same time. Possibly wouldn't want to pay a transfer fee for a player they probably gave the option to leave less than a year ago. Hopefully his contract would have a release clause in it.'"
As I understand it, Ellis was released and we are still paying the last two years of his contract.
Whether that means we can get him back, or if he wants to come back to play for Agar, I don't know.

I hope that is not the case it's crazy still paying for a hooker playing at another club when he is needed at Trinity to adequately support Aiton!

If the above statement is somewhere near the truth, then it's definitely time to swallow your pride and get Ellis back. With the pack we have, we need someone to get them rolling forward to give the halves a chance. If it's true that Ellis was on something like 100k a year, it doesn't make sense to be paying some or all of his wage to play for Fev. Got to weigh up what he is on, to what he will bring to the team in the second half of the season, but more importantly as what has been mentioned on a few threads on here. What impact will it have on next years season ticket sales.

As far as I know, Ellis is now a Fev player. I can't imagine we're paying them for the privilege.
If he isn't, I suggest we get him back.
