Rawlings on Blakey's frustration with his former club: It's not for me to share. His reasons have been alluded to in the media. He clearly loved his time there and loves his teammates. This is a fresh opportunity for him.
Rawlings: I'm very comfortable with the process we went through to be able to put a contract in front of Nick. We've been working through this with the board for some time and they've been very supportive.
