Here we go again - 'Talks can wait'

[howdydoo]

What players have to realise is that goose that lays the golden egg doesn't always work out,
by signing for another club for more money.
Smith playing well in a settled team, family settled & kids have their school mates, but leaving
Rotherham would mean settling into another team, family moving perhaps, all depends which
part of the country they would move to.
Rotherham United, Michael Smith & his agent have to sit down & come to a agreement, which
benefits both Michael Smith & Rotherham United.

If you're 30 years old and out of contract, selling yourself to the highest bidder (within reason) is absolutely the right thing to do.

Someone will offer him a 3 year contract on good money. So what if it doesn't work out? If the salary is considerably higher than Rotherham will pay, it's a no brainer for him. That's the golden egg. it's reasonable to assume, this will be his last big contract.

He's travelled up and down the country to ply his trade. I don't think moving would phase him and if he doesn't want to move his family, there will be takers within a 60 minute commute anyway.

His only obligation is to his family.

Good luck to him. Hope he stays.

Didn't he buy a house in Huddersfield? If so he's an hour away from a couple of dozen clubs.
