Let him go but at the right price no point in having unhappy players at the club, we're in desperate need of a number 9 as tomkins is going back to wigan and nowadays you need speed round the ruck!

With the Neil Barker tweet seemingly preceeding the transfer request,the intended destination originally intended for Sneyd
cannot be established.

It probably indicates that his agent thought he could replace Green at Wigan.

Maybe his agent doesn't enjoy him being at Castleford.

Saints and Warrington may be interested.

A bit of a guts-kicker for those like Alan Hunte who have assisted in his development.

Doesn't surprise me in the slightest and we have no one too blame but ourselves. Why would he want too come back here and be played out of position when the likes of Wigan and Wire would probably play him in his preferred position regularly.

We (Hull FC) will take him and I am sure our chairman will be prepared to pay a fee for him, we put in a massive offer for Dobson (which you beat), so we have the salary cap for a halfback.

Unfortunately a think a few others (and more successful clubs) will also be in the running.

Re: Sneyd asks for a move : Wed Jun 18, 2014 7:24 pm  

Reading the dr latest tweet I reckon he will let him leave for a fair fee which is only right that you get something for him.

Re: Sneyd asks for a move : Wed Jun 18, 2014 7:44 pm  

I don't think anyone can deny him the right to request a fee, this should not exceed the value of his contract though.

Re: Sneyd asks for a move : Wed Jun 18, 2014 7:50 pm  

I was pleased last week when it was announced he was coming back next year. However, if he's changed his mind and doesn't want to play for us then get shut but not for a penny less than 125k or a decent swap deal.

It's simple he's an asset and an emerging talent that's contracted to Salford Red Devils. I can't believe some of the Cas fans on twitter who believe they should get him for free because he wants a transfer.

Let's assume another scenario. Sneyd went to Cas this year but played poorly and didn't make the team. Sneyd contracted to us is told by Salford he isn't required and we won't be honouring his contract. What do you think would happen? Sneyd and his agent would take legal action against Salford. It's crazy these contracts can't only work one way to suit the players only.

That's upper rubbish. What about all the years investment and development Alan Hunte and the club put into him.

I'm not surprised Marwan is upset, He's spent the last month or two telling everyone how much Marc wants to stay and that he's going nowhere. I'm sure the Warrington's, Wigan's and Rhino's of this world will be willing to offer an amount that will change the good Doctors mind.

He will be absolutely fuming like any boss would if a prize asset wanted to jump ship just when things started looking like they were falling into place.

You can understand that now Marc has shown he has the ability to perform and mix it at the top level that he wants away. Why should he show loyalty to a team that we willing to loan him out to what was thought to be a relegation dog fight. I'm sure Marwan will learn from these mistakes and will think twice when sanctioning such a loan in future.

Wouldn't sniff the Wigan starting lineup.

I was using their star studded bunch as an example.
