doggystyle Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Didn't Keegan notoriously quit his job and take on an agent for all his media work? Personally think Ulugia would not look out of place in SL but keeping him fit is the challenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9' oller Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Lots of rumours circulating about keegs. He seemed pretty well grounded but who knows the effect of a media and minor celebrity status. He is our club captain and thats a gig in itself 'Shaw cross juniors, Birkenshaw, Mirfield, Heckmondwike Panthers, Stainland Stags and then the Heavy woolen donkeys...

phildog Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Agree Morley, bit off that is. I think Bradford would be wrong also in considering Diskin as he has a contract to honour. Forget all the talknof no written stuff a shake is a contract and considering that KN was praising Bulls General Manager over the process, they too should honour that appointment. Purely selfishly I would say that the board needs to (probably are) making strenuous overtures to everybody to lay the coaching position to rest and look for some loyalty.

Wouldn't it be much more straightforward if Batley just gave coaches a written contract like all other clubs? Sport, amongst other things, is a dream-world offering escape from harsh reality and the disturbing prospect of change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Blues Ox Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 I can never quite work out how these pre contract deals work as obviously you would need permission to talk to a player under contract before the deadline but what happens if that player then goes on and get injured. Fev have similar with one of their players who is off to Humberside and agreed terms for next season and now does not seem to be performing on the field.

9' oller Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 Broke his arm early doors but they retained him. Not sure if he plays more reserves grade 'Shaw cross juniors, Birkenshaw, Mirfield, Heckmondwike Panthers, Stainland Stags and then the Heavy woolen donkeys...

greavesy Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 Wouldn't it be much more straightforward if Batley just gave coaches a written contract like all other clubs?As you know BSJ contracts nowadays are not worth the paper they are written on. I have to say I like the way Kevin Nicholas does business where the handshake and trust in the integrity of the people involved has worked very well at Batley Bulldogs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to say I like the way Kevin Nicholas does business where the handshake and trust in the integrity of the people involved has worked very well at Batley Bulldogs A glib statement Greavesy but completely untrue. Ask any solicitor what the value of a proper contract is and I'm sure he would tell you that it can be watertight if written correctly. That costs money, of course. I still don't understand the value or logic of doing it the "Batley way" other than, frankly, a touch of arrogance; not something that I would associate with your club.

Then we will agree to differ on this one BSJ. There is no arrogance at the Batley Bulldogs only a club always striving to improve on and off the field.
