If a player is contracted to the club by signing 2 or 5 year deal then they have committed to Leeds for that length of time. They can not be a allowed to walk away when the mood or a higher financial offer is given by another club.

Can you please let us know which players Leeds have been an antagonistic towards or threatened........ Don't say Zak as he brought everything onto his own head and Leeds stood by him for far too long.

You must live in cloud cooker land if you expect clubs and companies to be run without some form of " authoritarian management". I bet you would be the first on here to whinge if Leeds said to Ryan Hall, Kallum Watkins etc, oh don't worry we know you can earn more money at XYZ club, so off you go and enjoy your life.

I agree they wouldn't have risked him in 'formal' sessions, but he'll have still be getting well prepped for the season. His immediate inclusion in the matchday 17 is an obvious giveaway.

he will have been training with Cronulla, probably not in team runs which is more likely to what Maloney was alluding to, but fitness etc.. then yes, i'm personally pretty sure on that. but, as like the fee paid to Leeds, we will never get a factual response on the matter, no point arguing it anymore. Lets move on.

Nobody on here knows either way - pointless d1ck measuring

If the accounts are a fair representation of what has happened the transfer fee will be shown as other income and should e visible - this is Leeds CA&F so its unlikely and it will be July 2018 before the accounts will be out by then this will long forgotten.

How many training sessions did Parcell have before he trotted out with the team - same can be said of Ali aSegyaro himself when Leeds signed them - that is what happens with new signings they don't wait weeks until they get used to the patterns they throw them straight in.

I think that it's only on here & only for a few posters that this saga has been a distraction once we replaced him with Parcell.

I'll always remember the fact he dragged us through the playoffs kicking and screaming last year.

Exactly the calibre of player we needed, just a shame he decided to do what he did (though Eastwood was worse IMO) but I'll be thankful for what he did when we needed it the most.

I think we'll leave this thread here, its had a good run.
