Ive heard a horrible rumour there offering him another year.

In the hope that he will play more games than he did in the previous three.

Over the past few years I kept forming the view that player X ( insert Meli, Wellens, Flannery, Wheeler or Ade) cannot possibly be offered another deal and yet another one once is announced usually longer than touted.

This would win the prize for the biggest folly ever by country mile.

This is real public mutiny stuff. Can visualise Fans pelting him with organic muesli bars as he limps off in his next 10 minute comeback game. Wheeler getting hit by a stray one while warming up which puts him out for another sixth months.

Nothing surprises me with Saints anymore.

The fact they haven't said goodbye to Perry yet has me sweating that we ARE going to offer him a new deal.

I don't think so. As we've got two non-fed players coming in we'll need to be losing two as well. It sounds as though TP will be one of them, so the other one will have to be either Perry or Laffranchi (Meli is exempt, so him leaving doesn't make any difference).

Josh actually fancies rebranding the catering at Langtree, introducing Aussie fare and other farmers goodies. This would open up a dual reg option with Rochdale Hornets another band of happy fans after todays result 48 0 DEFEAT away to NWC

If we re-sign this pudding, I think I will follow Swinton Lions.

I can't wait until the club announces the supposed new contracts for Gardner, Laffranchi and Wellens, I really can't. Saints media manager is already whining on about personal abuse he's getting on the club's official Facebook page, just wait till those pearlers come out.

So you think it's acceptable for people to write personal abuse about an employee at the club who is just doing his job? No doubt that you're one of them.

Does this mean that we won't have to see the drivel that you put on this forum everytime we come on here? When you go to watch the Lions, can you take Saddened with you? Cheers.

I'd much rather have their 'drivel' on here than the sanctimonious attitude of some other posters.

I never said that and no, it wasn't me. Might well be if he tries to wrap the Wellens and Laffranchi contract extensions into some big long blurb about their ability, I just wouldn't be able to handle that.

Has the laffranchi extension been officially announced by anyone other than Boof himself?

Nope.
