The links broke what did it say

I think the word "indicates" means he hasn't got a clue.

“That’s a joke son, I say, that’s a joke.” “Nice boy, but he’s sharp as a throw pillow.” “He’s so dumb he thinks a Mexican border pays rent” “ “Son… I say, son, some people are so narrow minded they can look through a keyhole with both eyes.”__ Forhorn Leghorn

But if Steve wanted Roy, I'm not sure why you'd be having those chats in mid June.

If Roy was first choice, you'd have the conversation towards the end of the season. With a view to having it all wrapped up early.

Lets be honest, there will no other clubs interested in Roy so its not like he's going to be weighing up lots of options.

How do you know it wasn't done then, and it is all signed and sorted, Parish and Hodgson like playing their cards close to their chest.

Maybe you are not seeing this from a two way negotiation that it is. Parish may well want it all wrapped up early. You might do too. Problem is, if Parish wants Roy to do another year and Roy says I've fulfilled my contract and I now want a holiday. If you still want me when I'm back I'm happy to talk then, not before. What then can Parish do other than stamp his feet, look around for an alternative or hang his head and say OK Roy, have a good holiday.

Brilliant achievement,our Roy is a proper gent, weather he's here nwxt season or not he's a club legend.
