Of course it is always hard to determine how much truth is in the "compassionate grounds" presented, but one thing it needs to be, is verifiable. One example that comes to mind is Ben Hannant... I don't think anyone doubts his request was genuine. I agree with the principle that a player should not get a pay increase, but on the other hand, that player could possibly get a major increase at his current club if he justifies it and both he and the club come to an agreement. This is something that wouldn't be possible at a new club, based on the above... I have no doubt that both Barba and Milford could get a significant increase on their salaries at their current clubs, especially the latter. [/QUOTE]
