i honestly think its his agent which is stalling. I think manu would have signed straight away if the length on contract was right.. but i've read the thread and i agree that its another briscoe fiasco.

fingers crossed he stays

If you've offered 3 years then I hope we don't replicate that length of contract.

Can't see many clubs if any offering a straight 3 year deal TBH for a 32 yr old no matter how good he is.

Think its his agent either trying to get more money or a longer deal, it may now be a case of deciding if a 3 yr deal with us is worth more than a gamble on a 1 or 2 year deal elsewhere.

It would go against your clubs general stance on over 30s. Stranger things have happened though.

How long have we given Ellis?

A month till he gets injured!
Taxi!!!

Ellis is two years younger than Manu. (Ellis is 30, Manu is 32 atm).

our definitions of explosive must be different! Never have i seem solomona take a crap ball n make a 30 40 50 yard break out of nothing with a massive step hand off n back like pace! solomona is Strong,skillfull n amazing offloader but too me quite different to Willi. TP little bit more like manu,but does most of his eye catchin stuff off the back of his sheer size n power,with some great hands!

Wont Ellis be 32 in his first year here?

Just had a text from a mate whos wife works at Sirius who tells me Manu has agreed the deal .. all to be announced!
god i hope so
