Yeah Snodgrass was training that's a fact and the other fact is he did not refuse to play. The club chose not to play him in case he got injured.
Expecting to be offered a new deal six months before the end of your current deal is perfectly reasonable. The exercising of an extra year on the previous terms was always the beginning of the end.
Last sentence. Spot on. How can a club hope to keep professional players when they think they can treat them like the workforce at Allam Marine. Whatever we supporters think players aren't supporters. It is their living. If he wants more money and a longer contract and he can get it who would deny him that. Loyalty only unto themselves and I for one don't hold that against them whatever I think about how much money they earn.
It's his responsibility to not refuse to play under the terms of the big **** off contract he was happy to sign.
I've not personally seen Silva claim Snodgrass refused to train, when are when did he make the claim?
Pictures of him training are rather more convincing for me than some knob on Twitter claiming he refused, but each to their own.
The manager hasn't said he refused to train though has he, unless you've found another quote? I've got a direct quote from the manager about Maguire having to play right back against Bournemouth if you want it?
