Not good for us and his performances for rest of the season if his future is not settled soon.

Roberts needs to buckle down and at least deliver a bit of value for money. No more excuses.

Plenty of people do tougher jobs with a lot more on their mind.

I see your mental health advocacy comes with strings attached.

You are playfully (and unhelpfully to the cause of raising awareness) making the mistake of diminishing serious mental health disorders to that relating to moods such as being "home sick" and "not settling" and "having things on your mind". They are not mental health disorders. You don't get prescribed Lithium, SSRI, SNRI or Electroconvulsive therapy because you are "home sick". If, as you imply, Roberts is suffering from a mental health disorder then I would hope he is getting the support he needs.

I don't know what Jacob Millers contract situation is at present but feel he would be good replacement, attacks the line, dynamic and has that little bit of x-factor and unpredictability, he is young player and seems to have settled in Britain as well.

He signed a 5 year deal last month.

Because, as we all know, contracts mean nothing.

That makes it more likely he'll be on Wires target then.

Contracts don`t mean nothing though do they? They are a legally binding document are they not... Of course it does not mean that he wont be leaving the club for the next 5 years but it does mean it is at our clubs discretion to release him from his contract which I am sure would demand a fee from any club that wanted to take him.

So in response, no contracts do not `Mean nothing`.

He has already been on your list twice, He spoke at our forum the other year, when he last signed an extension with us saying that he had the option to join you before you signed Kevin Brown, the club initially turned down an offer and then they allowed you to speak to him and he turned you down himself saying that he was settled here and did not want to move. Obviously things change and if the right offer came in he might want to take the move who knows.

That is the reason behind the story I heard of TS being ousted...
We seemingly kept losing out on players regardless of how much we threw at them once they spoke to TS.
But no....contracts mean nowt ar Warrington.
