    If any of that is true then I'm supprised at how maungy Steele appears to be. Everyone knows Butterfield was leaving sooner or later. The "very good" contract offered to Butterfield was just an incentive to re-sign so that we could then get substantially more for him when he was sold on. Even if he had have signed a new deal I'm sure he would still have been gone by the end of January (assuming he made a full recovery that is). To sum up, not disrespectful to Steele, just a short term plan to get more for Butterfield.

    Luke Steele is hardly maungy! Always seems to have a smile on his face whenever I have seen him.

    Definitely doesn't seem maungy at all.

    I'm sure I read somewhere that Steele still has 'unfinished business' here, which I guess means he want so stay.

    I think we should be trying to keep him (if we can afford him) rather than trying to replace him.
