Got something to discuss about RL in general? Then this is the place to post it.

Well if George burgess doesn’t pull his weight, ship him out.

On tonight's show they're saying it's a 5 year deal worth $3.5million in English money it's £350,000 a year over 5 years.
I always knew that I liked this place, you don't have to look to far to find a friendly face, I feel alive when I'm walking on this street, I feel the heart of this city pounding underneath my feet, yeah if the world keeps spinning round and round this is were it all goes down,down,down, THAT'S WHY I LOVE THIS TOWN!.

Hopefully that's all true. I do note we've not had a denial from the club saying they've not spoken to him.
£350k a year is a lot off the balance sheet but we've a lot of salary leaving the playing roster.
The players who may leave to me are Lockers, TL (maybe) Gildart, Escare, Navarette, Flower.
Bateman would take a starting shirt, Gildart's replacement (Bibby) is here, Escare hasn't played much and Nav is at Wakey.
I wonder if a transfer fee is involved?

This whole episode has surprised me. It would be great for the club and us fans to see John Bateman back.
