"The board have reached a limit on their offer and Rio and his people are not going to get another penny - it's a great offer I wish I was being offered it.

"We have shown great faith in these players when we sign them and we have shown great faith and loyalty in Rio and we would like some of that returned.

"We’ve been told that his agent is out of the country but Rio needs to make a decision one way or the other because we’re going into a final and so we need to get a decision. It’s important for the supporters because we’ll have 35,000 of them going to Cardiff wondering if Rio is committed to the club or not. The offer is there for him and it’s a great offer. I wish I was offered that kind of contract."
