Why can't the club keep things private, get the deal for a player over the line, then give Paul Davis the story first, every ones happy, by not letting another club gazump us.
Tell the players agent if there's any spouting about a deal to other clubs, the Millers will pull the plug on any deal, the agent then looses his money.
How things are conducted at the club, I think nearest thing to a Scout was Tonto's hoss.
