He's said so little there, you're forced to read between the lines. Basically he's trying to hold Mills to account just in case we don't lend them our best players when available, and say something decent about Ellis so he feels accountable, too.
I think that's a bit harsh, that's not Kevin Nicholas' style at all (and I'm not a Batley fan). I think it's fair to say they have been treated a bit poorly by DR partner clubs in the past (eg players being on DR with Batley then allowed to go on loan elsewhere rather than offered to Batley) and he will know that plenty of the club's fans will be cynical about DR arrangements as a result,but to me that statemennt was really positive about Wakefield. I'd take it at face value, Nicholas doesn't strike me as someone to try and play mind games like that at all.
