Hometownclub Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 Rickets News! He has gone... warsaw will take over contract.. end of... and then we have wages to get in another striker... I think thats what would be described as irony, if Ricketts did suffered with Rickets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest oa_exile Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 The News on the grapevine is that he wont be coming back to BP , as a Latics player anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIKI1234 Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 The News on the grapevine is that he wont be coming back to BP , as a Latics player anyway. Doesnt suggest the deal is as signed and sealed as some are suggesting looking at this link http://www.expressandstar.com/2008/01/05/w...rless-over-duo/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jorvik_latic Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 Doesnt suggest the deal is as signed and sealed as some are suggesting looking at this link http://www.expressandstar.com/2008/01/05/w...rless-over-duo/ Probably because they can't afford the fortune he was on here. From the sounds of things he will be released due to the clauses in his contract. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ackey Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 We should make Warsaw sweat on it for a while... if we tell them right away that's an advantage to them. If they don't know they can have him they can't go after other forwards - who we might want! Evil, yes. Business, Yes. Good idea, Yes!

Nice idea but I would imagine that he's already told them he's off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shhhhhh...can't post postives like that on here about Ricketts! Oh sod it....yes, you can... "Me too. rickets SCORES GOALS. simply as that. i couldnt careless how lazy he is, he has a great touch and can finish. all you want in a striker at this level." I'm glad they've got good, honest eyesight down in Walsall. OAFC + RICKETTS = SCAPEGOAT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garcon Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 Without wanting to rake over the coals all over again, I think we can safely say it was nonfootballing reasons that saw his departure. Happily, and oerhaps not entirely by coincidence, our form has improved since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheepfootredemption Posted January 9, 2008 Author Share Posted January 9, 2008 Thanks for the replies. One further question - what clause ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diego_Sideburns Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 BBC Midlands TV has just shown a feature on Walsall players on a bonding day out today go-karting. I didn't spot our loaned player! Perhaps they didn't have a car big enough for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garcon Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 Thanks for the replies. One further question - what clause ? When we signed him in the summer on a 3 year deal, that included a number of clauses. Don't know the precise details, but it does seem to mean we're able to get rid without paying up the three years.

Boris The Blue Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 We must have never been confident about signing Ricketts to have put the clauses that we supposedly have into his contract. I have my suspicions that he was never sure about signing for Latics in the first place. We gave it a go, for some reason it didn't work out, and now we can move on without having got our fingers too burnt. Onwards and Upwards.

spadam Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 Am glad wallsall have found some talent in him because we did'nt. I do not think we will see him in Oldham for very very long time just one of those things some players just don't have a good at a club then go to another and then play great football.
