[QUOTE="dullonien, post: 535409, member: 13739"] According to [COLOR=#1C1C1C][FONT=arial]Richard Holland, the Blues chief executive,[/FONT][/COLOR] the Blues offered him [COLOR=#1C1C1C][FONT=arial]"an extremely attractive" offer that would have made him [/FONT][/COLOR][COLOR=#1C1C1C][FONT=arial]the "highest paid player in the Blues squad, and arguably in the UK". I wonder how true this is? Not doubting he would have been the highest paid player in the Blues squad, but highest in the UK, that's an interesting claim. Should the Blues even be offering one player money like that when they have struggled to bring in anywhere near the quality needed in other positions where they lack any quality at all? I imagine that the deciding factor for Roberts was the fact that the Blues region is now a joke. Things need to change, or all the Blues big-name players will be moving on when their contracts expires! Hewitt and Gavin Evans to be Blues first choice centres next season?
