Redbaron2, Loyalty, it does go both ways between club and players you are correct, but the clubs now are run as businesses or should do, I will get slaughtered for this but its my view that the traveling players would jump ship immediately if a club closer to home came in for them with either the same or higher offer, and to be truthful who wouldn't, the players have a short playing carrier as a pro or semi pro, yes they love the game or they wouldn't be playing, but its a paid job to them also.
