We need to demand answers from the Club. They have no choice than to explain themselves. 

They already answered this at the meeting. it was a financial decision Cox was on 90k a year Blake will be on half of that.

Thomas and Henderson out!!

You can’t sack Thomas ffs. Misjudgement by the club of a player loved by fans but Thomas is the best coach we’ve had since the 90’s. Turned the club around. Henderson on the other hand…

But he said he volunteered two pay cuts, I bet they didn't mention that. If it's purely about economics we could pick up 11 Mohammed Rizvi's and probably turn over a handsome profit. 

 

Cox has value beyond his pay packet. He barely drops anything, is our second top scorer with the bat and is popular with fans. What kind of message are they sending out with this decision?

I know he said he would take a pay cut but it would still be way more then what the club would want to pay..Blake will be around the 40k mark.Agree they should at least have opened some dialogue.Not the first-time they have took.the cheaper  option they get rid of Nobby O Brien who was one of our best players when he was around the same age as Cox

Think it’s just the wider optics. Cox is incredibly popular with supporters and like others have said, his value is way more than his salary.
