| According to this mornings League Express Atkins has agreed to go to Warrington Wolves from the 2010 season,seen as he has 2 years left remaining on his current contract do you think we'll go for a player swap or money based transfer?.
I know he has had a fair bit os stick of late with his inability to pass to his left but other than Shenton at cas he is one of a few players who looks capable of been a international player for a long time to come.

| I for one am disappointed by this news. I know I've criticised Atkins for not passing to his winger but that can easily be rectified. We have the current England centre and if he goes who are we going to replace him with. As much as I liked James Evans when he was here he is not one for the future.
Very disappoined unless we have something up our sleeve. I've always said I don't care who leaves the club as long as they are replaced by someone as good or better. I'll wait and see who we sign to replace him - if he is going.

the league express has had links on this board a few times recently and so far some of the reports have been unfounded. i certainly hope he isn't going because as you say, who is gonna replace him? if they are as good they will cost as much unless they are overseas or older, neither of which is where we should be headed if possible

Transfer fees aside, I think Wire might be able to get people on relatively cheaper contracts than before as they now have a coach who actually can offer players the chance of winning something, where as before some of their big money would have likely gone on paying well over the odds.
They must be shedding some to be able to fit these under the cap though - anyone know who is leaving?

Wonder if the England boss is abusing his position and offering a little more then a club place?!

| Adam has been dropping hints for a while now about something going on.
Not heard anything from up high - but if the cash / swap was deemed good value by the football committee - i.e. sanctioned by JK - then we would do it.
From what I have heard recently, JK can be more 'hard-nosed' about just how much a player is worth than the other football directors - so wait for the details (assuming there is some truth in it) before hanging anyone for selling our current England international.
I would also note that I join those who would be disappointed to see him go. I believe that we are guilty of not appreciating the value of the assets we have. I was slated for calling MK 'awesome' on Friday - yet his effort was what made the difference in an otherwise dour game. I feel that we have singled Ryan out far too much for criticism of what he doesn't do well, and forgotten about all the things he does do well. Now it looks like we will miss him - now he' going!

| I'm ok with JK being hard nosed. He is keeping us in the black by doing that.
We have to accept if Atkins is getting interest from the big clubs who can pay him the big bucks, we shouldn't try and match them if we can't afford it.
Saying that, I'd still like to keep him if we can.

| right , it looks like Ryan as finally indicated his intentions for next year.
hopefully he can now carry on with the job in hand and play his heart out for the next few months. Maybe with this burden of his shoulders he may just give us a few games to remember him by.
tbf i think we have come as far as possible with Ryan and likewise so has he with wakefield im sure Mr Kear will have something up his sleeve.

he's 23 how can that be as far as we can go?
trb you say jk can be hard nosed about what a player is worth and pay him accordingly but what relevance is that if he is under contract ?

Thought the hard-nosed was more about how much of a transfer fee they were willing to offer (to be spent in M&S of course by Ted) or what player+ cash they were willing to offer in return.
