He's being sarcastic. Someone asked why he'd announced it before Saints and he replied...

"I had shown the same professionalism and that is why I thanked them now"

So Saints have obviously been a bit naughty somewhere. Very surprised to hear that with KC and Sean Long in charge....

Who'd have thought it ))

nice of him to inform everyone that Fages had signed for saints rather than let saints announce it!

It's like those clubs that allow players to be photographed in the kit of the team they are signing for before they've completed their contract at another club.

You know, how signing with Netflix or Google TV, neither of which are even close to broadcasting live sports yet, would be a better option than the record breaking, recent Sky deal? [/quote]
Sorry....but the rfl were hasty at best and negligent at worst in pushing for that deal to be accepted
Now we did accept it, it makes any future negotiations even more difficult as SKY are unlikely to up their offer by much and the other players who will be prevelant in 2021 will Ben on a bargain hunt. We could end up on a more obscure pay channel than sky if were not careful

I like him, if he hitched his trousers up a bit and started wearing leather gloves all the time he'd be up there with Vincent Tan.
