Oakley Signs New Deal

[Profondo Rosso]

You honestly don't think a player can have a large positive influence on the team and team spirit off the field and in training?

I honestly believe that if you simply want to boost moral off-field through a non-playing vehicle then we may as well employ Roger De Courcey and Nookie Bear.

Strange opinion. Players interact every day if there's certain players who help build a team spirit then they are ones we want to keep, especially when SGE has come out publicly and criticised how quiet the team are and implied several times the lack of spirit in the team.

We have absolutely no idea about individual player personalities or influence on the training ground. I assume, given that SGE has directly said that it is his influence off the pitch that is needed, that he believes Oakley offers a lot in that department.

Can they play right back?

Do you not see the conflict in your statement?

Giving our core players a nice little pay rise might pay off (ba-dum) in the situation we're in. Letting them know that they're key to our future and worth the same money as the new lads could give them the morale boost that is needed to turn our form around. Once king's deal has been sorted it'll mean that all of our regular starting 11 is on a contract negotiated with the new owners, which I imagine will pay a lot higher than one from MM.

Totally agree. How motivated do people feel in other lines of work when there's someone paid just because they are nice or fit in?

Where is the conflict?

SGE has come in and said our team is too quiet, he obviously considers Oakley to be one of the few that isn't. I don't see a conflict in that at all.
