A very good point. The last thing we need is a player leaving us hanging on until later in the year before turning down a contract and leaving us struggling to find a replacement.

Agree with the majority - I'd like all three to stay, if Tickle goes it's a blow but not a disaster.

We should set a deadline date, and then move on.

Agree.....will be a big blow if Tickle leaves....put it this way..if Tickle and Fitz go...we will need to recriut a kicker and Hll is OOC as well.

With Agar saying we have offered Tickle a very good contract maybe suggests he doesnt expect him to stay. That said I agree about the need to know either way as soon as possible because teams are clearly actively recruiting now and good players will soon get snapped up.

When not if

The soundbites were quite positive only a few weeks ago aswell.

If BB is right and we get Robinson out of it, it might actually be beneficial.

Why would we get Robinson though? Tickle is OOC, we don't have a bargaining point really.

I dunno. It's a rumour I like the sound of, so I've chosen to believe it in the face of all the evidence.

Fair play, tbh i'd like it to be the case too.
But we need to be telling Tickle that the offer is only there for a certain length of time, we don't want what will probably be a big chunk of the cap floating around until it's too late.

I still believe tickle will stay possibly a 2-3 year deal,whiting and manu each to get 2 years,just my opinion of course.

However Wolfie we all put great weight on YOUR opinions so thanks for cheering me up!
