I will strive to repay them throughout the rest of the season

Now there is a loaded sentence if there ever was one. Does that mean he's staying to the end of the season and going for nothing or am I reading too much into it?

That's what I thought, although he may just be saying that as he isn't sure if hes going now or in November yet.

If he does stay it'll be difficult for him to get the trust of the fans back based on recent antics. The only way to change the fans mind is to perform well on the pitch and even then, the damage may already have been done. This whole situation has become farcical and it needs to be resolved in the next few days one or the other.

As mentioned by other people already, Monday is perfect. We're in Catalonia for a week so he'll have minimal worries there as the knuckle draggers that were abusing him won't own a passport let alone enough money to pay for international travel.

Royce seems to have given him the kitchen sink judging by some of the comments attributed to him today.

Its this simple for me? Kyle signs for us and plays or sits in the stand until he leaves. We move on and stop this circus act thats effecting our season.

Exactly my thoughts Rommel.

If he were to stay, fantastic. We can kick on from there. If on Monday he announces he is leaving now, again that is fine as we can then spend a whole season mercilessly tapping up some gun replacement, or sign Luke Gale.

What I was wondering is if he announces he is going at the end of the season because Bath aren't willing to compensate Saints, what would people think of moving him back to centre? I hate the idea of basing your side around a player who is leaving, but playing centre requires far less focus and we could utilise his pace much more easily from there?

Fair play.

All players leave eventually, Long in his last season would have been the starting no7 for every game, except for injuries. Pryce will be the starting no 6 in his last season. If Eastmond is our best option at 7, he should start, regardless of our feelings towards him. We play to win every game, next seasons games will look after themselves.

I dont consider myself as a "knuckle dragger", I own a passport and have the money for international travel, so where do you get off with comments like this ..... you really are saddened or are you ( looks over shoulder in case KC is about ) an agent
