Simon's Church If this is true can we finally put to bed all the 'special club' 'everyone wants to be here' nonsense that's always spouted by the PR team and admit it's all about the money, even for McD£rmott? Let's face it, if he wasn't given the big pay increase by the new owners he'd have ditched us like a shot for a brief stint in 'the promised land'.
Can't say I'm not disappointed, I thought better of him
Sadly it is beginning to look a bit that way. This must be very unsettling for the players and it would have been nice to have seen McDermott publically rule himself out at an early stage.
The fact that Wolves wanted to talk to him, together with our league position should have left him in a strong position to negotiate for a better contract at RFC, without all of the uncertainty this is causing.
Would have accepted him going and wished him well had the old regime still been in place with regular player sales forced upon him. However, in the new world I think he should have acted quicker to reaffirm his often mentioned affection for RFC.
