BigAl Posted May 28, 2015 Report Posted May 28, 2015 Ok no real grounds for this but here goes. Have thought for a fair bit of this season that this guy had something about him. Never really knew that much about his background but after watching him leaf the line for Motherwell thought I would check and to my surprise found he had been out on loan at Arbroath under Paul Sheerin and see he is out of contract. Big awkward looking guy to play against and had an eye for goal. Given he is out of contract this summer, anyone think he might be worth an approach ? Quote
tlg1903 Posted May 28, 2015 Report Posted May 28, 2015 How old is he al? I thought be looked useful enough tonight it has to be said Quote
BigAl Posted May 28, 2015 Author Report Posted May 28, 2015 How old is he al? I thought be looked useful enough tonight it has to be said Only 21. I believe the victims might be sniffing about though. Quote
manc_don Posted May 29, 2015 Report Posted May 29, 2015 Motherwell do have the knack of unearthing a gem or two. At 21, he would fit the bill in terms of youth but my only concern is he wouldn't be better than what we have in that position. Quote
TheDeeDon Posted May 29, 2015 Report Posted May 29, 2015 The opposition he was up against last night, wasn't exactly great, for me would not add anything to the squad. Quote
BobbyBiscuit Posted May 30, 2015 Report Posted May 30, 2015 I'd take a punt on him. Scored some absolutely sublime goals this season, and considering the utter guff he's playing alongside, that's no mean feat. Quote
thestooge Posted June 1, 2015 Report Posted June 1, 2015 I hope we're strongly linked to him, even if it's just to wind the filth up. Quote
wi_09 Posted June 2, 2015 Report Posted June 2, 2015 Going to sign for Leeds, apparently. I have heard a rumour there is a £500k development fee involved. Surely not Quote
BigAl Posted June 2, 2015 Author Report Posted June 2, 2015 I have heard a rumour there is a £500k development fee involved. Surely not Been at Motherwell since he was twelve so nine years in total. Leeds Utd are a "category one" club so compensation due of £60k per annum i.e £540k allegedly Quote
manc_don Posted June 2, 2015 Report Posted June 2, 2015 Thing is, why would anyone go to Leeds? They are completely fucked and being run by a lunatic. Yes, its in England and you'll get a bit more money, but surely you'd want some sort of job security? Quote

See everyone who signed for Dundee circa 99/00 Hearts during Romanov And of course those lovable rogues down ibrox way. So many footballers are morons and will go wherever their agent tells them to even if it is apparent they could go months without being paid or even up unemployed within less than a season. Quote

Difference being, they were all playing in the top division though I don't disagree with your last paragraph. Quote
tom_widdows Posted June 3, 2015 Report Posted June 3, 2015 I would refer you to Boston United & Plymouth Argyle. Both snapped up players from Scottish clubs only to go into administration and in the case of Boston, liquidation within a couple of years Quote

manc_don Posted June 10, 2015 Report Posted June 10, 2015 Ah well, I'm still hoping we get our signings in before Europe. Absolutely critical. Quote
BigAl Posted June 11, 2015 Author Report Posted June 11, 2015 Not remotely fussed about this guy. In fairness we never officially linked with him, so not like we have missed out on him. Quote
Tyrant Posted June 11, 2015 Report Posted June 11, 2015 Indeed. But I'm just glad that we can now move on from the idea of this uninspiring player. Quote
