I asked him on twitter today and he was pretty honest, just said he had not yet received an offer from the bulls, and he's not accepted an offer from elsewhere yet. He's one of the players i would definitely like to keep - try scoring machine!

Given that Khan and Sutcliffe only got the word we were in SL on Friday, I wouldn't think ANY of the OOC players would have received an offer yet.

I'd expect many of them, including Ainscough, to be getting offers next week. We obviously need to sign more players up ASAP, so I expect some announcements pretty soon

I was quite surprised that he/other players have not already committed themselves to other teams, they must have been nervous about what they would do next year.

I thought we would be in a position where all the OOC players were already signed up elsewhere. Maybe we can keep the team pretty similar next year.

I'd sign all of them (Nas/Sammut to be sorted, of course) as they are a decent set of players who have shown commitment last season and I doubt we'll get better players from elsewhere. Not that I glean all the papers to see who is and isn't available, but Id guess any 'bargains' or top quality guys ooc at other clubs would probably be sorted by now.

I did think there were stories about Pryce having signed elsewhere for next year, was it not true then?

Mr Khan is very aware that he needs to show that he means buisness as an owner and if the rumours are to be belived they may even make one transfer where a fee is paid.

That's a rumour I've missed Red! Does the rumour go on to specifics...

Re: Rumours 2013 : Sun Sep 16, 2012 1:53 pm  

Something keeps nagging at me that Wigan might look at Lulia. They need to replace Carmont, Super Keith has had a great year and the Pies aren't afraid to put their hand in their pocket if need be.

Rumours down here is that, Widnes have signed Nick Scrutton on a 2 year deal.

Scrutes hasn't played much this season. He had a bad illness which laid him low for months, and to be honest, he hasn't been the same player since he returned. Don't think he was off contract anyway, but I could be wrong on that.
