joewarkfanclub Posted April 10 Report Share Posted April 10 11 hours ago, weeyin said: It did get paid, though. Just took longer than usual because it was the first year MLS teams were in the scheme and their federation were trying to claim they were Tier 4 for the purposes of compensation pay outs. So it had to go through all the UEFA and FIFA bureaucracy until it was settled. In the end, when Cadden signed for Hibs, the fee had to be paid before he got his clearance. 'Flow talked about this on a couple of occasions including confirming that it was paid. Also, anybody who gives a footballer any credit for the brains to come up with a scheme like that hasn't met many footballers. Must have missed the fact that it was paid. I do recall Flow talking about being in communication with the US club but there were complications because they were outside the regulatory framework. Ive never thought Cadden cooked the scheme up. Always felt is was down to Columbus Crew and his agent. I hold no ill will towards the player but Id rather we didnt end up in the same situation again. Anyway, my post was intended to be light hearted so maybe I should have used some imojis! 😆😆😆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact they don't even seem to know what day it is makes me question anything they have to say regarding us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Posted April 11 Author Report Share Posted April 11 I remember the Record back in the day when, even if I didn't agree with what they posted, they had actual journalists writing the content and reporting the stories. It's a shadow of the publication it once was. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kmcalpin Posted April 14 Report Share Posted April 14 Any views on Sam Nicholson? The quiet man of Fir Park it would seem. He'd hardly played any football for a while before joining us and has only played a few minutes here and there since. Fitness is not surprisingly a problem but he's looked fine in flashes. Should he be offered a new deal? Would he be a replacement for Blair Spittal? Didn't quite understand his role yesterday as a wing back when he came on.

Nicholson was pretty crap yesterday, but he's a LM and Kettlewell put him at RWB, so I’ll cut him some slack. He’s not shown anything to suggest he’ll be an able replacement for Spittal, but I imagine Kettlewell will offer him a deal anyway. I also thought Halliday was crap as well yesterday when he came on, although he’s confirmed as ours for next season. Davor and Miller are ahead of him in the pecking order, and Paton will likely be as well once back from injury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spittal is leaving and Miller might too. Paton is ok but injured. Slattery - injured but who knows. Davor - flatters to deceive and lightweight. Halliday - not fit but not impressed either. Nicholson - who knows. Tierney - not fancied by SK. Maguire - leaving? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the entire squad needs an overhaul in general. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not bothered about Tierney tbh or Maguire 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
