If we had kept him on the books, Saddened would have called time on his career long before 23.
He's not played a game for the Rhino's yet some people are calling this an endorsement. In the end we can't keep everyone and sign everyone. You have to make choices. Surely we are not suggesting that Graham, TP in their prime should have been dropped for this guy. People love using hindsight to make judgements, but quite frankly that's a weak call.
If you want to kick up a fuss then it should have been done at the time the decision was made to let him go. Not years hence when you can sit back and just wait for an oppertunity to put the knife in.
I mean seriously until this signing was announced how closely was Andy Yates career being followed by all those who are happy to now bag the club for letting him go?
Unfortunately, thats just what some on here do. Nobody questioned his release at the time, and the fact that he has developed and Leeds now see potential is good on him. Hindsight is easy and is what Saddened and Saintsfan base most of their arguments upon. Unless you can see 5 years into the future, most juniors will be a gamble. Some you win, some you lose.
