Perhaps some have picked up on this interview with GM. In essence the players who wanted to come back wanted massive pay rises, which explains some leaving, whom we would have liked back. There is obviously two sides to this. Is it that NB refused to budge on reasonable requests and wont match other teams or is it that players who underperformed and perhaps could have been more professional in some areas just looked to be greedy.

What GM actually said in that interview is “the players you wanted back” that’s different to saying players who wanted to come back. Christ who the hell did they want back from last year apart from maybe Hughes ? 🙈 |

Seems a bit of a Gary maneuver, shift any blame to nameless players by making them look greedy, without mentioning any numbers.

But if if what he is saying is to be believed then i'm glad the club haven't caved in to players demands as no-one on last years team deserved a big pay rise. If that's what you want you have to go out there and earn it |

Agree, and I didn't personally want many, if any, of them to come back. But it's his style, doesn't really tell you anything in terms of facts (who, how much were they on, how much did they want), but can be applied to anyone who hasn't returned and explain it away as down to their greed.
