Just on the most basic “not wanting to be a shitty person” level - none of the parties mentioned are public about that aspect of their private lives. Presumably not by accident. Don’t know why anyone else would decide it’s their place to make it public for them.
I get it, and I shouldn't have contributed (albeit about a different player), sometimes it's difficult to defend the club about player's leaving in any depth without alluding to possible reasons beyond the club's control though. You can be vague, but questions will inevitably follow. Any time 'personal reasons' is mentioned, people are going to want to speculate - see: any post in this thread around when Upton left.
Are we even certain she’s going? The amount of times the media have had KP leaving us over the last few years only for it to be bullshit gives me some hope.
I reckon she's about $1.001 to leave, which sucks. Not even anything to do with personal reasons either. It's depressing and incredibly frustrating to think about but at this point it's like, why wouldn't anyone? $$, constant chance to win competitions, basically guaranteed rep jerseys, chance to be full time (though Jesse probably already is), better players on your left and right.
To top it all off Braith Anasta is her manager.
Can't think of a single legitimate reason that if she was staying it wouldn't have been announced by now, either. Our best player re-signing for the club is hardly a distraction before a final given all the noise around her leaving. If anything it would be a massive boost to say she's sticking with us and not joining our direct opposition that are about to put 40 on us.
She's gone. But I hope I can quote this post later to laugh at the egg on my face.
