Jamie Lyon to the Titans?

[Garts]

I am in the minority but I believe he asked for a release but was denied. Not that I am really fussed as long as he is with us for 2013 and plays well.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

What team did you jump off when you started following the Titans? Or are you 6?

He started following the Titans when the Wiggles broke up.

PMSL.
Post of the year so far.:lol:

That's our Bones, best comedian not to actually do stand up at the comedy club.

I think if he DID ask for a release he would have distanced himself a bit more and the Titans would be doing more not to make themselves look stupid.

There's a very easy way of finding out the truth here. Just read Rothtools column and believe the opposite of what the clown says.

I hope Manly and Lyon's storey is true but at the end of the day I don't really care. Lyon is a legend either way. However, If Lyon did ask for a release Manly or Lyon will not admit to that, it would be a PR disaster. They would come out with a PR spiel like this saying that everything is sweet. I don't care Jamie wrote a letter, I do not automatically believe it is the truth. You watch the Lance Armstrong interview yesterday when it flashed back to his previous interviews etc? The stories of Lyon moving to the Titans were around before Thursday night.

And if Lyon didn't ask for a release they would come out with a PR spiel like this - we just don't know.

You make a good point but i think if the Titans were sure he was going to or did ask for a release then they would have released a statement to that effect. Instead of just walking away.

Lyon puts egg on Rothfields face

Round 3 Titan man, cannot wait.

Its quite obvious that both Lyon & his manager fielded an offer & the rest of this shameful episode was derived from leaks from within the Titans.

Its quite clear to me that Lyon did not ask for a release and that the Titans have been disengenuous throughout.

And to you Titans Fan, I have a question. You state that you know Lyon asked for a release because you heard it from May himself.

You heard that in person from May or from the May posting on the Titans forum ?

 

[lsz]

I find it remarkable that a "CEO", if that is him, would post like that on a fan forum.

I am all for open communication but that decision was nothing more than someone's ego running wild - an a perfect way to scare off a potential player

Can you imagine Perry posting a similar thread on here? Just remarkable

 

[cava2323]

For what it's worth moley is adamant on twitter that killer wants out.

It was a massive offer

It's all speculation, only killer and admin know what's really going on, if anything.

I disagree that it is quite clear. Maybe I am too much of a sceptic but I just don't believe much of what is said these days. I must be jaded after the last 12 or so months!!!!!

And yes Isz, the CEO posting on a fan forum giving leaks on potential player signings is just crazy.

 

[MadMarcus]

The CEO posting on THIS forum as "Titans Fan" is even crazier...

 

[Phantar]

I thought that was Jamil Idris.

Couldn't agree more. So unprofessional.

So on one hand we have a stupid CEO who unprofessionally posts on a fan forum, along with a substandard hobo journalist called Rothfield.

On the other we have these direct quotes from Jamie:


"I was never going to the Gold Coast"

"At no stage did I approach titans , meet with anyone from the titans or agree to anything at all with them"

"I never ever asked to be released from manly and never did I intend too"

Thats apart from all the other examples of untruths spread by the Titans & the media during this affair. So it isnt difficult at all to determine whats obvious & clear.

Snap out of that jaded scepticism Garts. The season is fast approaching

It's easy to see where garts is coming from. After the 2011 GF the coach told us he wasn't going anywhere. I think there's a few of us who are a bit sceptical after that.
