lol ok... go over to our board and ask if it was only because of salary cap lol
But anyway he seemed like a good bloke and it showed by how many players got around him as opposed to polec after the game.
Hope he does well!
I think you make a fair point. Pittard had run his race at Port and needed to move on to re-ignite his career. Happens to a lot of players and works out some of the time. The salary dump was just a bonus.
On the popularity thing, it's pretty well known that Polec is a bit of a loner, so he wouldn't be interested in the post-game hugs and back-slapping. That was nice for Pittard, but to me, what was even nicer was Polec drilling that set shot goal from the boundary. He's there to play football and not to make friends, and the guy can certainly play football.
