Manly were cleared of ALL the crazy - False accusations in the media circles over the past 18 months, just as B. Stewart was after being unfairly treated a few years ago....
It all seems a great result to fans that the name of the Manly Sea Eagles is found innocent and almost a relief after much public humiliation....over and over.
Well I see it differently - the lost sponsorship is a Massive unfair part of this circus, but really only the tip of the iceberg...
It effects the players, staff and management
Huge loss of revenue
NOW - It is DEFINATELY a negative effect on signing key players due to 3rd party sponsorships and the fact the club has been tarnished....yes proven to be a load of crap but the mud will always stick.
Its 1 thing for fans to hate Manly - in fact, I enjoy that part - but when its a major play on social media with no backbone its just crazy that they can get away with it - no retribution.
As far as I was aware there are defamation and slander cases here in Neon lights....
This has already cost Manly in many ways and is definately not a positive in signing players and keeping up with the squeaky clean Roosters/ bronco's and Storm who all have actually been guilty in the past but came out smelling like roses ??
Anyone looking as to why Manly struggle to sign players who opt elsewhere can be sure this has played a part.
