IMO he simply had more cash offered at salford

Potential bullet dodged if you ask me

Jordan would have left IMO if Carney came through family loyalty. This probably sat uncomfortably with some of the other players. It would have done with me. Then imagine something happens, things like this get dragged up and all of a sudden you have a dressing room in disharmony.
If this is actually what happened, I can personally do nothing but applaud the club for being open and honest with the players and asking their opinion

Agree. Whilst is disappointing a player of Carney's calibre won't be joining us, if this is the process the club took I'm in full backing of it.

We had a similar situation at my amateur club where the coaches asked us whether we'd be happy with a player joining us. 99% of the time a new player would just turn up training and be welcomed into the fold with no questions asked, but the player in question we knew of, he played for us a few years earlier, left under a cloud and pi$$ed a lot of people off.

Before anyone says it, yes, there's a huge difference between professional and amateur sport, but I think the point still stands regarding keeping team spirit and morale. In a sport like rugby league where your putting your bodies on the line for each other, where communication across the line is vital, your living in each others pockets etc, a rift in the team can be catastrophic.

Spot on for me. I've posted something similar on another thread before I read this one.

Exactly. If this is what has happened then I think the club has handled this very well. I know some people were saying when the rumours were floating around about the vote that it was a joke we was doing it but I think it's been the right call as it's a somewhat unique situation and it involves one of our players.

I phoned up a while back and was told that I couldn't sign up for the membership and get the FC Live discount over the phone. I've being into store today whilst I'm up and sorted it though there was another issue that I didn't want to kick up a fuss whilst there and have contacted the club directly.
It'd be so much easier to do the whole lot online just ticking a check box for what you want to purchase and pay directly then collect the pack whenever.

Over 500 passes sold today alone according to someone in the shop?

You have to give pearson credit,spread a bit of bird seed about regarding carney and the pigeons bite.

YAWN,

"When seagulls follow the trawler it is because they think sardines will be thrown into the sea,"

Lets hope the enigmatic "someone" in the shop is more reliable than the narcissistic who supposedly counts Rovers busses as reported by JTP and company. That apart I do reckon Pearson's ploy of not denying the Carney rumours has sold more passes than the "impending" doom posts frighteners.

What? I don;t count buses. WTF are you talking about you dumb fuk?

Evening Cocker. Does it really matter what motivates our fanbase to procure their memberships? With you,Oafy and Unhinged Mary twitching away tonight it clearly rankles.

You know the difference between a noun and an adjective, right? Being a monomaniacal.

Or maybe the price freeze deadline has something to do with it.
Couldn't be that simple, could it?
It has to be some sort of skulduggery by Pearson, doesn't it?
