Believe so, and if Blackburn haven't tied him up by now I'd guess they don't intend to. Surely we have a shot at signing him permanently

one thing i picked up from Paul Hornby's interview on BBC radio Cumbria was that we have 11 players tied up for next season not 9;- so looks like as others have said 2 players have triggered contract extensions - and realistically that must be 2 from Hird, Taylor, Brown ... or Harrison (mainly sub appearances) as they are the only ones who have played enough matches I think.

Someone mentioned signing Dan Jones. I think this would be a retrograde step and would seriously damage our team ethic. I don’t regard him as a team player and think his inclusion damaged our performances at the end of our curtailed season.

I believe that Dan Jones remains under contract at Salford for a further year. Dont think we'd be wanting to pay a transfer fee.

I agree. Sadly finished as a player at even NL level. The times I saw him he didn't actually hold the ball up very well and was no danger in any of his sub appearances.

i'm not saying he should get an extension - just wondering if he had a clause that made him entitled to one if he played so many matches - because if he did he would almost certainly have activated it by coming on as sub so many times..

I agree that when Dan Jones came into the side it coincided with a spell were we collectively didn't look as convincing, whether that was part of it, I’m not sure, The balance is so fine.
