I know that's the case ONFY my whole point is that we as a club make it easy for them to do that.
Our own players where stating in April we hadn't offered them contracts as yet.
My point is we need to take that option away from them if possible and protect our assest. Players have the power now, we all know that but whose to say some loyalty ala Murphy or Clarkson cannot be found.
Don't give them the option to sign and they won't, there heads will be turned and they will leave. Give them the option and the temptation if extra cash and you never know what might happen.
At no point did I say they would 100% sign on the line whatever we put in front of them, I'm saying we need to as a club fight harder to keep them rather than let them walk away.
