[quote="Jake the Peg":1mtdf5os]No idea if its true but someone told me today that abdul only got a minimal payout as he hadn't met the terms of his contract due to not meeting fitness goals. Could be bs[/quote:1mtdf5os] Yes heard the same, he had three clauses regarding weight, fitness and another one and he failed it so got minimal payout

[quote="Tarquin Fuego":2qm8yqqh] Would a player swap work ? For me that’s a yes [/quote:2qm8yqqh] Impossible at the minute because Salford are banned from registering players. Even if that changed realistically don’t think swaps would work for anyone but especially Hull based players. Salford already have the lowest wage bill in the competition and need to cut 800k, contracted players from other clubs won’t want to take a huge pay cut, especially relocating from Hull.

[quote="Marcus's Bicycle":3khv2tou]If the quota exemption is implemented does anyone think we should be in for Lafai? His contract expires at the end of this season so I would guess there's no need for a multi year deal. Hasn't got the pace of Cross but he's a far better player and we were interested last season.[/quote:3khv2tou] Salford have three of the best centres in S/L I would take any one of them above Cross if they became available under an exemption Lafai is a wings dream centre and would be great alongside Martin and Barron.No slower than Hardaker of Chamberlain but we do need some pace at centre so my choice would be Marsters.

[quote="UllFC":1osuwd1f]Are there any other clubs we could look at offering a transfer fee to? The league is near insolvent and being proped up by wealthy owners, surely waving say £100k at a club would at least be considered (aside from a few big names, certain clubs that are also rich etc)[/quote:1osuwd1f] What makes you think that your new owners would want to pay a transfer? They didn't offer one for Liam Byrne did they.

[quote="bishops finger":2nrwvxlf]What makes you think that your new owners would want to pay a transfer? They didn't offer one for Liam Byrne did they.[/quote:2nrwvxlf] Out of interest…How do you know they wouldn’t?..and how do you know they never offered one for Byrne..or even if we actually were in for him.
