Kyle wanted his 2011 salary paying up. Keep him and rot him in the reserves.

His contract with Bath only starts in November, why would he go without pay until then? If the club want him out then they'll have to pay up his contract. Just as any employer would.

As long as he gives his all for the rest of the season I have no problem with him staying, just as I didn't when Lyon decided he wasn't stopping, or any of the others who have done the same.

That would depend upon their reasons for disposing of his services. If he was fired for disciplinary reasons, for example, Saints need not pay him a penny. However, unless he goes on a stropfest ala Friday night then I doubt that will happen. Nevertheless, I still think he should be our backline cover for this season in order to give our young guns chance to showcase themselves while the club are deciding who to recruit as a replacement.

But that isn't the case, and it's very unlikely to ever be. And I don't think 'Walking off the pitch without clapping the fans' would be accepted as gross misconduct in the inevitable tribunal...

Well, I was just trying to grasp some straws!
