James Clare : Sun Dec 11, 2016 9:36 pm  
Though Twitter isn't the best source of information, I've seen a tweet suggesting Cas and Leigh are fighting for his signature. Does anybody have any more insight?

Really hope it's horse poo. :(

It's an article in League Express that says they're interested if he becomes available. Neil Jukes is even quoted praising Clare and says "We wouldn't be looking to buy James but, should he become available, we would look at trying to do something."

Does this become an issue once the new owner takes over and staff are TUPE'd across?

In a word, yes.

LS "Hi Jukesy, if James Clare became a free agent would you be interested ?"

What NJ is saying is that for no fee to be involved you would be in the real deep stuff, Beaumont is on record as wishing you well in getting out the mess so that is something most hope can be avoided. If the new owner has to slash the costs then some players will not accept the terms

The article can be taken two ways really. As you say, one way is simply them looking at our squad, knowing James Clare is one of our better players so start asking questions to coaches and when one says he's good, sensationalise it.

On the other hand, there's every chance it's a matter of once TUPE kicks in, the player intends to take advantage to get himself a better deal elsewhere.

You can understand Bulls fans expecting the latter, largely because that's exactly what happened with Huddersfield and Craig Kopczak. Hopefully it's the former.

Cost slashing has already happened with the turnover of players in the off season. The squad we have currently (about 30 players - of which 6 are brand new academy graduates) is £500k per season cheaper than the squad of 45 we had 3 months ago.

Re: James Clare : Mon Dec 12, 2016 9:48 am  
Doesn't the tupe thing only happen when a new company is incorporated and assets (players) are moved across?

If the new owner agrees to pay off creditors then there won't need to be a new company. So there won't be a tupe.

Or am I understanding this wrong?
