To be fair to the lads that are never going to get close to training with such good facilities or alongside such good players I can understand why they might want to stay.
It's how everyone who made a bit of an arse of themselves calling for the heads of the best thing to happen to the club in decades sees it.
Na, not for me. There's such a thing as integrity and if you make promises then you keep them (or you don't make those promises in the first place). With the game as it is now, differentiating yourselves to gain a competitive advantage is imperative, one of the ways we've done that is the relationships we've formed with other parties and the way we've conducted ourselves. Goodwill and reputations in the game are a lot harder to build than they are ruin.
Probably not now but that will only be from this summer. He’s still going to be enjoying much better facilities and will probably never get the salary he’s on again even if it’s fairly modest in the scheme of football wages. ( assuming he’ll have had some kind of promotion clause like others have.
I think we probably had an agreement and Seelt was happy with it until he got an unexpectedly good alternative offer. Understand their frustration but in those circumstances we can’t force Seelt to take the poorer option.
There’s a fair bit of speculation there and even if it is accurate then a bit of open communication would have been important to maintain our reputation. You want to be a club that others trust and want to deal with.
We have no idea what was and wasn't agreed to We are a club with a great reputation and that's not changed at all
