Why did we pay Carlisle $$$ ...
... to elect not to play against a key forward in our most important game of the year?
The dog looked at me !

The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?

Re: Why did we pay Carlisle $$$ ...
Should we routinely ask players for permission to play them?
They get paid huge money to play about 50 hours of footy.
They shoukdn't be allowed to opt out.

No he's not. It's a valid opinion. I've expressed the same sentiments during the week. Done now. Not interested in raking back over it, but certainly can't invalidate the view just because you don't agree with itIluvHarvey wrote: ↑Fri 09 Oct 2020 10:29pmI know we are all hurting right now but you are making a fool of yourself.Doug Booth wrote: ↑Fri 09 Oct 2020 10:28pm Should we routinely ask players for permission to play them?

Re: Why did we pay Carlisle $$$ ...
Christ! Its family. I'd kill or die for my family.
The job, yes THE JOB, is important but family is #1 .
Any person puts his or her family first in the face of criticism and loss is a fecking hero to me.
Well done Carlisle. We wont give two sh1ts about you in 2 yrs but you'll always have that sweet sweet memory of holding precious bubs just minutes old and your missus knows what matters most to you.
Fecking father of the year right there lads!!!

Re: Why did we pay Carlisle $$$ ...
If the club didn’t have a problem with it then why should supporters?
The club hasn’t given him a contract anyway so maybe Jake isn’t feeling the love.
It probably wouldn’t have made a difference anyway.

I know I’m right anyone that’s been around sporting clubs knows it. They won’t come out and say it because the Caros of this world would get in their high horse

Re: Why did we pay Carlisle $$$ ...
They were probably hoping he would play but hard to be pissed with him if the club hasn’t given him a contract.
At the end of the day, players are basically employees and can be cut in the blink of an eye.
All the loyalty stuff is for the supporters and the marketing department.
