Shifty : Tue Jun 15, 2010 6:19 pm  
Linkerty Link

Seems we're not exactly nice in how we treat our players. No wonder not many want to come to a club like ours.

I wanted to keep this seperate from the Catalans thread as this is more aimed towards Shifty than Catalans.
He clearly (in his own words) wasn't doing his job at Cas and that's why we let him go, but we do ourselves no favours in treating players like that. Word will get round how they are treated and players (especially good ones) will not want to be treated like dirt.

In a way I kind of hope he proves some people wrong tonight, however I also would like us to rack up a good win. Someone keep us updated on how he does?

Re: Shifty : Tue Jun 15, 2010 9:36 pm  
after reading that i can see why he was putting in the effort tonight, if a player were to say that had happened at any other club i wouldnt believe it but seeing as its cas i dare say its all true as to how he was given the news. i think they did the right thing in getting rid of him but i have heard rumours we are still toping up his wage that he gets in france, but thats only a rumour (but we are talking about cas here).

Played 80 mins.
Put some telling short kicks in that trouble us.
Looks much fitter than when he was at cas.

Thought he did ok, nothing special tbh.

If he had performed there wouldnt have been a problem, but his boasting about his wages and his lack of commitment ended up with him being off - hired. I hope that this message goes to all players new and old that we will no longer tollerate free loaders.

Listening on the radio they were saying he was nothing special and hadn't done much other than the set up for the try.

Sounded like he got injured too..... Big suprise

It will go, however, they may read it another way that Cas treat players like crap

Somewhere nice.

Re: Shifty : Tue Jun 15, 2010 10:34 pm  
Sour grapes sadly.
When he came to Cas i could see the bloke had class and a brilliant rugby brain. Sadly his body is shot and he has no heart for Cas hence him going through the motions and taking the p1ss out of the club and the fans and his team mates.
Shown the door for good reason and a season too late for me.

Not a nice way for him to be told he's not wanted.

George Bush says 'we are losing the war on drugs'. Well you know what that implies? There's a war going on, and people on drugs are winning it! Well what does that tell you about drugs? Some smart, creative motherfookers on that side."

What would be a nice way to be told you are not wanted, maybe in the style of a west end musical - finished with Richard Wright doing the whole jazzy hands thing?

Getting older is mandatory; growing up is optional.

I thought some of our fans booing him was a bit harsh to be honest, he didn't deserve that.
