I have no doubt Ayoub tried to blackmail the club but Tedesco was a bit smarter than the grub and told him where to go. Unfortunately a lot of players don't have the balls to sack Ayoub when he clearly is not representing their best interests.
The contradiction is a bit of a concern "Teddy is his own Man" and "he was pushed by the grub Ayoub".
Another scenario is he chased the lime green bucks knowing the next injury could mean his last game, That Ayoub was doing his job as a good manager should and negotiated a great deal with the Raiders.
He chased the dollars in Canberra because their offer was likely significantly higher than ours. He was mad not to take it.
Ayoub is still a grub either way, and that predated all the crap with Farah.
He chased the money but he and his family were bitterly disappointed with how the WT's and in particular Mayer handled the contract negotiations
When people just flat out don't return phone calls in regards to the contract , you know there is an issue
Happy, Im confused. Weren't you saying that Teddy was angry that Farah tried to force him to stay with Ayoub last year? Not that Teddy was annoyed that Farah forced him to stay with the Tigers the year before last?
This club has a strong history of dominant players trying to force other players to sign with their player managers. Old Rocks & Diamonds used to do it all the time and caused a lot of problems around 2007/08.
