Nope.

I wonder how many people work inside the JJB stadium, must be around 2,000 because every other person knows someone who walks the dog of someone...

Wouldn't worry too much. Appears to be contradiction in your tale - how can there be ANY politics between incoming and outgoing owners?

Noble may well be frustrated over possible new signings, but until the takeover occurs - he like everyone else, will have to wait for monies to be released.

IMO, if he did leave, what possible change of fortune as regards signings etc can possible happen, as most clubs will have already targeted their potential new recruits, or even have signed them already. So his "predicament" would remain.

The new owners will be in power in a week or two and DW will be gone. Why on Earth would they have a big row about it at this late stage?

Possibly it's going to cost us the Chev Walker signing because maybe there was a dispute about the transfer fee, but if it does, it's hardly the end of the world.

On the same subject, does Brian Noble threaten to walk every time he doesn't get his own way? If you believe everything the 'insiders' say, he's threatened to walk four or five times this season already, yet funnily enough he's still here. And where is he going to go to - the dole? No-one else in SL needs a coach at present.

To my way of thinking there is no way DW will spend on WRL for a trans fare fee, if its a contract that would not matter as it would pass to the new owner , that would clearly explain why Coley has been signed and his name released as he is out of contract so no money needs to be paid , It could however explain the hold up in the Walker deal as the RU want a fee and maybe HKR are in a better position at this time to sort things out , he is a good SL player but not a world beater if it happens its a decent signing if it falls through not the end of the world .

I agree and if he signs for HKR then good luck to him but he's not the type of player we want. We want players who want to sign for the team and not money being the overriding factor in their decision
