Please note this is not a criticism of him!!!! ![]()
I agree. No one is guaranteed a place in the 17. But as you say he is a great asset to the club and that should be said more often.

| I have to admit to being a bit disappointed by JD on Sunday!!
At the "Audience with" last week they spoke about Try Celebrations, I was expecting much more form JD after what he said at the evening.  |

didnt hear the full interview on radio leeds, but did hear Jd say that the tronc and brough situations cuased problems in the changing room and that his opinion was that tronc wasnt very professional in his attitude. i.e had made his mind up that he wanted to leave and this reflected in his play and training. his opinion was that tronc as a proffesional should have seen the season out and allowed wtw time to get a replacement
also said that DB had turned down offers to stay and that in his opinion club did the right thing in letting him go
hopefully this will bring a closure to the episode of these two players and stop peiople complaining about the performance of the club re.them

| This more or less puts that to bed. All the criticism at the club for LETTING players go
is now put in perspective. Well said Captain.  |

I think you're missing the point a bit, and since everything in the garden is now rosy, now is probably not the best time BUT - I'm sure the criticism wasn't just about letting those players go, but the manner in which it was done and the apparent lack of like for like replacements. That's been done to death however, and Sunday's win has settled nerves on both sides of the argument.
Regarding JD's interview; there were comments very similar to these from him several weeks ago (can't remember where) and I posted on here at the time that it was good to see him say what some fans were thinking, without the political smoke and mirrors that club officials are compelled to use. He does seem to have a very honest and affable persona - you'd think if he does hang up his boots, he'd be a shoe-in for some punditry work.

| Well said JD, glad someone has come out and made the fans aware of the situation. We only want players that want to play for us. |

No - it is YOU who is missing the point. The right time to let a player go is when they no longer want to be with you / they won't play well for you / are costing you money and/or you can get money back from them.
You then try and get the best replacements you can with your resources - someone who wants to be part of our club - you accept that there will be a 'bedding in' period and you get on with it.
THE POINT is that the club made the right calls for the right reasons - that doesn't mean to say that we are happy with it all, but the club have done the best that they can FOR the club.  |

At the risk of going off on a tangent, and repeating something that has been done to death, could we have done better from the Tronc "deal"? Accepted he didnt want to play with us, and its almost pointless in making him do so. Am i right in saying we got nothing in return for him from the Bronchos? As far as I can see we held a decent hand, but on the face of it got nothing in return?

Go back to JD's comments - what we gained was the riddance of a 'cancer' that was creating friction in the dressing rooms. We also 'gained' the balance of the contract monies that would have been spent supporting a player in a lifestyle he wanted out of.
As there are transfer fees between here and Aus, this was the best deal alround - in fact I'd have got shut of him 3 weeks earlier! |

Accepted - but we got no actual "payment" for the player? |
