VERY true - - and the likelihood is that players would "not accept" the deal in front of them as opposed to rejecting it in its entirety if they do not ratify.


The players's side has a lot of work to do and a lot of communication to carry out in the next day or so, but at this moment, the ball is in their court.


IF they do not ratify, it will be incumbent on them to explain very clearly what parts of the deal are still in need of negotiation and what other parts of the deal are perfectly OK.
