Im not getting this whole 'we were forced into a new deal' pish, we were in papers saying talks had started with Smith and Clark, we've just got Clarks over the line. I dont see how the sleeping giant had any influence, i doubt his agent would use them as any kind of leverage either, he could have easily signed for a west coast team in the prem for all we know.

McMullan wasnt getting a new deal as he's too inconsistent, rightly or wrongly Mick has used us not being in a position to offer contracts as an excuse, now we have offered Clark a contract it is a kick in the balls for McMullan IMO
