How do we know they don't have someone lined up subject to the passport? Seems like that is holding everything up at the moment.

They may have even lost out on someone due to the waiting. I think Agar is pretty transparent, and wouldn't have said we would arrange replacement even if it hasn't come off.

Come on Chris you know full well Agar has said many times that we had a replacement lined up & had numerous options we were talking to.
Granted im sure he said it may not be the same position as Merrin but a replacement was promised.
The Martin passport thing came later once again big starements re-recruitment have been made & not carried out.
Of course Rhys Evans was a must its not like we have young lads who deserve a shot over a 27yr old has been with "experience".

I don't ever remember Agar saying we had a replacement for Merrin lined up. I do remember Agar saying Prior wasn't Merrins replacement.

No more signings before season starts and Martin and the passport thing has not yet been sorted. This is still ongoing, these Pacific islands don't do everything at 100 miles per hour, they have quality of life not quantity.
Look at the start of last season and look at the squad now, a huge improvement on last year. We may not win anything but I expect us to play a lot better and be closer to the likes of Saints and Wire. Its best to have cap space available as opposed to having an empty wallet when possible signings become available. Lets see where we are after the first half dozen games then we can start to kick come booty LOL.

Leeds could be using Martin’s visa as an excuse not to sign anyone. He may have already obtained it but easier for Leeds to say he has yet to receive it to give them more time to make a signing.

This is from the horses mouth of Sam, to mutual
Friend. ‘He isn’t finished playing just yet.’ He is undergoing extensive rehab with pioneering surgery.
This isn’t a rumour!

No id like a top signing like Agar promised or Merrin wouldn't leave. So far we've signed Rhys Evans. Nothing been mentioned on Martins passort for the last month so I'd expect the much covered 22 shirt to he vacant a while we continue to cut costs.

Who would you like us to sign? Tell me who is available, prepared to come to the UK and would make us significantly better
