Proszenko's Article

The more I think about it, the more I worried I am about the recent SMH article. It's clear Proszenko is nothing more than a puppet to Spagnolo, and the old regime would love nothing more than for Steve Sharp and the current administration to end up with egg on their faces over the Foran deal.In an article today:"Foran was fuming and embarrassed at the story. Parramatta officials and coach Brad Arthur were busy on Thursday trying to take the heat out of the story even to the point of saying it may hinder their chances."Rather than the article being written with confirmation that Foran will be joining Parramatta, it looks to me like it's been thrown out there to jeopardise the deal. It might only be a drowning man clutching at straws but it seems to be having the desired effect. I highly doubt Foran would change his mind if he's decided to leave Manly but I can't help but fear that this contract isn't a done deal as we all hoped it might be. I'd love to be wrong though.http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/newslocal/northern-beaches/future-on-manly-pivot-still-not-decided/story-fngr8iii-1227241828477

  • The Orr brothers who look after DCE leaked it
    • Yeh, I don't think the article was ill-intentioned. I know he's been following the story for a long time (I was having lunch with someone from the club when he called to ask about Foran many months ago) so I'm sure Adrian was trying to ensure he didn't get scooped on it, and any journalist would do the same.

    • That's right phil, and BA wouldn't be the only one pissed off, the Foran camp are seething at AP's article ... I hope I'm wrong but I can see this ending in tears
  • It's all shady, with the journalist in bed with DCEs managers trying to get more coin out of Manly and destabilise Foran's deal.
    It seems to have worked though. No longer looking so good...
  • Surely a story that was leaked via an external source not related to either party would have little effect on any potential deal.

  • Mmm getting concerned now but didn't someone say at the handshake deal that for on said he wouldn't backflip?
  • Could'nt it actually work in our favour once the dust settles? The main reason for the big feud at Manly was that DCE is a greedy little jerk and this just reinforces that. His grubby managers trying on grubby tactics to get old long neck a few extra bucks. If I was Foran I would be trying to get as far away from Long neck as I could. Imagine the conversation that Foran and Watmough will be having tonight about DCE and his managers.

  • Yeah I was even starting to think that it could have been actually leaked by a Manly official, good way to try & fek up a deal especially on the manly launch day and also putting a tremendous amount of pressure on Foran at the launch. He looked like the pressure was really getting to him
  • Seems like the liberals are doing that too, Frankie.
  • Here, here Fongster. I agree
