Thaumagurist* Ian Royal Equally their offer wasn't declined without the player been consulted.
Yeah, it wasn't accepted or declined. That's what I've been trying to say.
Ian Royal If Lita had wanted to go he'd have gone. There may have been a bit of further haggling over price, but he would have.
I never denied that.
Ian Royal So to all intents and purposes a bid was accepted in principle.
I'm sorry, but I still disagree.
Its quite simple really Spacey - IF the bid had been unacceptable to us, we wouldn't have bothered telling the player as we wouldn't have sold the player at that price.
Are you seriously suggesting that the following was a realistic hypothetical scenario?
RFC "Leroy - Sheff Utd have made a bid for you. Interested in moving?
LL "I am as it happens. I'll probably start every game, and they could get promotion"
RFC "Well tough. we aren't going to accept the bid"
If you honestly think that RFC would have behaved like that, then you are the most cynical "supporter" of this club who posts on this forum!!
