Meli is yet to return

Say the rumour Ande posted about him not wanting to return is true, where do we stand on his salary? Is his removal from the books (potentially for gross misconduct) counted for the rest of the season? Or do we have to lose what we have paid so far? Or do we get a fresh start with all his wage?

we lose what we have already paid him, the salary cap is counted on a monthly "live" basis now.

How much 'reliability' is there in the rumour?

TBH I am not fussed about Meli.

He is a liability at times, and his cost was cashed to the premium at the GF.

It was a hypothesis.

I have it on the best authority going that Meli WILL return as soon as the visa issue is sorted.

What i want to know is, how come everybody else can manage to get a visa (for example all those Celtic players), yet Meli can't?

It seems to me that he doesn't want to return.

Is he not in breach of contract in anyway?

Tweet from @martinoffiah 23/08/2011: 'Must admit i did love watching Saints- Cunningham Joynt Longy Tommy then Leon, last classic RL team ever'. Even the dark side can't help but love the rebellion.

We've ushered him into a cupboard and turned the hallway light off more like.

If it was anybody else in a normal every day job then they would be sacked, but seeing as this is RL and we never do anything the normal way then I would say he will be made to do 10 laps of the pitch then be put straight back into the team to satisfy all the people on here that think other fans give him a hard time
