    We wish James well in the future, & I hope to see him this week @ the Coventry GUKPT.

    He's playing all of UKOPS, too, except UKOPS 1 He might just get the lot, too......

    amazing how they let their best player go!! just won the main event as well! got to question sky here for allowing him to go.

    I hear on the grapevine the deal was quite insulting to a player of his calibre 

    good luck to him!

    Good luck to James. Quality player - I am sure we'll see plenty more of him on the live circuit too.

    Probably be best if we don't get into comments like that.  That "grapevine" was not Sky Poker, as only 2 people, Rich Milner & myself, were party to the conversations with James. Which begs the question where did they come from, if they existed at all......

    James had a 12 month Contract, & it was fully honoured by both parties. The Contract Term has ended.

    He was offered an extension on broadly similar terms, taking everything into account, & after some thought, he decided it was time to move on, so wrote & told us. His note was polite, deferential, & showed much gratitude.

    We accepted his decision not to accept the offered extension in good heart & spirit, & James wrote Rich Milner & myself a really lovely note thanking Sky Poker for everything, & suggesting he would remain "onside" with all of us here @ Sky Poker. We (Rich Milner & myself, seperately) replied in kind.

    So "the grapevine" is a little mysterious, to be honest......

    People come & go, in their jobs, & in poker. It's the natural order of things. There has been no war, James wants to better himself & decided to move on.      

    We absolutely wish James, (& indeed all the Swindon Massive, you included), the very best, wherever he plays his poker.

    The new Team Sky Poker line up will be announced in the next 24 hours, including permanent Members, Wild Cards, & Qualifiers.

    It'd be preferable if the Thread concentrated on wishing James well in the future.

    fair point, you know rumours they spread like wildfire!! There was once a rumour that i was the best looking guy in swindon (I started it) 
    I guess my post rules me out taking the Free slot on Team Sky Poker? fml
