He’s going nowhere until he’s out of contract. I was told on Friday that nobody, including Oxford who he went to last year on loan, is interested in him.
I don't get why the blame would all be on Wilson. Gerrard had a budget in the summer and blew the majority of it on John Lundstram then the minute we went out to Malmo it was obvious that would be our business done unless we could sell a player to generate funds. We only received a bid for Patterson in the summer which was knocked back. With the losses the club has been making during covid as well it was obvious the spending would be reigned in and that's what happened in the summer that's not on Ross Wilson.
Scotland is a bit different from England in that respect. Easier to get one up here
Shows with the flurry of Japanese players coming into Scotland
See this is classic FF , writing off a player before he's even kicked a ball .
He had nothing to do with the signings of Barker Jones or Polster. Ofoborh a bit harsh as well given he hasn't even kicked a ball yet.
It’s not his fault.
What if the heart thing never showed up untill after his medical?
That is nonsense, a lot of heart conditions are hard to trace without seeing specialists and having specific tests done which are far beyond the scope of a football medical.
We won't be paying full wages the insurance company will be paying the majority of it.
It would be but he is definitely just happy to be one of those players picking up a wage he will never see the likes of again, must have thought all his Christmases came at once when 10k (if rumours are true) was offered, nowhere near rangers quality.
Aribo was a marquee signing.
Isn't that why we - presumably - have insurance?
It was the club doctors that traced the heart issue just a month after he signed.
No.
100% extremely strange transfer to say the least. Of course he’s going to milk it as he will end up on 2-3k a week maximum.
The club doctors traced it later on because the symptoms he had probably narrowed it down, who's to even say it was causing him an issue at the time of the medical. They don't do stuff like CTs and echos at medicals which are sometimes necessary to identify any condition.
He can only invest with what he's given by the board. There's more to it than simply buying the players.
Ofoborh wasn't even getting a start at Wycombe last season where he was on loan.
For any club willing to play Barker, and for him to actually do well at that level of club.
No wonder. His performance against Stirling was shocking. He was basically hiding at times and I'm convinced he made himself look injured to get subbed. I can see him leaving once his contract expires and not getting another club
Simpson made 35 appearances in 6 seasons with Bournemouth by the age of 24 before joining us that's a terrible statistic so I don't get what you mean by building up his numbers he's barely played any meaningful Football in his career.
He was injured and then asked not to be played so it didn't aggravate it further putting his move to us in jeopardy.
Pretty sure he was injured at Wycombe mate. Think his first spell there was more impressive.
Any club that gets their recruitment better than 50% is doing very well.
Last few seasons haven’t been great.
Kamara was a cheap punt who did work out. Tav was a cheap punt who worked out. Windass was a cheap punt who, while he wasn't a world beater, made us a great profit. Cheap punts happen and we've made a lot of profit on them either by transfer fees or players being key in our European and league success.
Already debunked, another caskie job.
I live in Birmingham and the only newspaper I've seen reporting Goldson to Villa is the Scottish Sun.
If his loan club paid half his wages from now until the end of his contract we'd be saving circa £100k. If they pay a quarter of his wages we save about £50k. Hardly changes anything we do at the Club or in the transfer market.
That’s totally different though.
