SavageTheBeast Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Are the administrators running the show there still? If so it might give us a better chance of getting him is there a rule stating that if a clubs in admin players can leave for free? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudemedic Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 is there a rule stating that if a clubs in admin players can leave for free?No, but they tend to be available cheaply, especially if they are probably out of contract at the end of the season. There's a rumour going round Twitter via Facebook that Hearts have accepted a £40k bid, but I'm not sure if I'd believe it as it originates via a few people from a "mate" of his.

opinions4u Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 is there a rule stating that if a clubs in admin players can leave for free? Only applies if wages aren't paid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wozzer Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Well 50% of his wages aren't being paid, although not sure that counts as he's voluntarily accepted that. Can't see this one happening though he's a Hearts fan and despite their troubles they're a much bigger club than us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusoe Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 If he wasn't happy with the 50% pay cut then he would have refused it. And the club would either have backed down, or he would have walked then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boys in Blue Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 If he's out of contract in summer then we can offer a pre-contract deal & avoid paying a fee or wages til then. Technically it's an international transfer so we can agree it from January onwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave_Og Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 Bumped: Released by Hearts: http://sport.stv.tv/football/274964-hearts-stars-released-as-new-tynecastle-regime-wields-the-axe/ So the boyhood fan who was in demand elsewhere, accepted a pay cut and pledged to stay even if the club was relegated is released. And still supporters get outraged when a player "fails to show loyalty". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parigby Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 If we were ever really interested is this guy, no doubt LJ has already been onto his agent this morning. Or is that just a little bit too much like " finger on the pulse " for Latics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarryBosch Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 Has Rachubka re-signed? Got a feeling he'll be number one with Coleman as backup. When he originally wanted to sign McDonald he probably didn't particularly rate Rachubka whereas he should do now... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is that just a little bit too much like " finger on the pulse " for Latics. Why say that? Have you anything to back it up - anything to suggest we've missed out on transfers because we havent acted quickly enough? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd sign him, if we have the chance, but he's likely to get better offers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brown is most likely of the three to sign. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HarryBosch Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 (edited) Or the least likely to get offered a better deal.Probably true but he's also probably the best investment of the three for us or another club. As good as he is at what he does Wes is the type of player who will never command a decent transfer fee, Rachubka won't again but, as a pacey, young English rightback Brown could one day go for a lot of money if he keeps improving......

Agreed, of the three he has more potential to be a money spinner for us, but he must keep the improvement going as you say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
