[QUOTE="Which Tyler, post: 990046, member: 73592"] From a Bath perspective - I don't get that. Not the signing, as it's decent enough, albeit overhyped. But paying 6 figures for immediate release (half a prem season), in a position I'm not aware of us having an injury crisis in... Surely we could have waited until July ETA: Ah, from the article: "Redpath was in the second year of a five-year contract" that explains it then; and if paying a release fee, then no need to wait. Of course, I still don't like the buying out of contracts, or making loans to get around inconvenient ones; but then it looks like Sale were no angels in that respect this time either " The club have reluctantly agreed to accept a six-figure transfer fee to release Cameron from his Sale Sharks contract after unsuccessful negotiations with the player over the past couple of weeks. Redpath was in the second year of a five-year contract". So he's not even half way through his contract, and Sale were actively trying to change the terms... ETA2: Of course, it could be that Cameron was trying to renegotiate terms having been name checked by Eddie, so I'll hold fire there. One of them is in the wrong, and I'm not fond of Bath sticking their oar in (again) [/QUOTE]
