C&A not the shop Posted June 7, 2021 Report Share Posted June 7, 2021 Curtis Main signed with St Mirren, 2 year deal. He was always a handful who put himself about and put in a shift. I liked him and I'm sure defenders hated playing against him however his finishing bar a short spell for us was woeful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St Mirren are the new Aberdeen when it comes to "just use Motherwell's scouting" recruitment policy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess that's what he negotiated when he was out injured then. Seems fair and probably why MFC kept everything quit. We get his euro money and he gets the contract extension lifted to let him sign for someone else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Wispy Flossy Posted June 7, 2021 Report Share Posted June 7, 2021 Robbo taken our former reserve team manager Diarmid o something or other. The one who got the Ireland u21 job then never when they found out he’d told a few fibs about his qualifications Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmcalpin Posted June 7, 2021 Report Share Posted June 7, 2021 2 hours ago, texanwellfan said: Compensation? I thought he resigned? Its not uncommon, and indeed may even be the norm I don't know, for departing (resigned/leaving by mutual consent/sacked whatever) managers to continue to receive their monthly salaries, under some kind of deal, until their contract expires. Examples are Owen Coyle and Craig Levein. If they take another job, their compensation or previous salary is reduced or stopped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long and short is he reneged on a deal and he and his representatives acted far from professionally. The Euro compo will be a fraction of what we could have got if he was under contract till next summer. I think Aberdeen would have easily found 300k which would be 4x what we will get under this recobble. Prick is getting booed 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weeyin Posted June 7, 2021 Report Share Posted June 7, 2021 When people leave by "mutual consent" you can't really believe much of the official press releases. If the two parties are still on decent terms, they will agree exactly what will be said regarding how great each other is. If the the two parties fell out, then there is usually a legal agreement to say they can't bad mouth each other, so you get the "no comment" treatment. There is also often a contractual clause that attached to the severance pay that requires certain behaviour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weeyin Posted June 7, 2021 Report Share Posted June 7, 2021 The only thing (slightly) surprising about the whole thing is people are still convinced that the baseless rumours posted on here are fact. Well that, and that they somehow know the details of his contract. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goggles & Flippers Posted June 8, 2021 Report Share Posted June 8, 2021 Almost as predictable as you coming on here to play your broken record on this subject. Why you insist that what transpired is fully legit and all parties are without reproach without written affidavits from all sides and an Mi5 surveillance sting operation is the other side of the coin. What would you need to change these from baseless to believable? The subject has been covered at length in other threads. He agreed on a deal, got a wage increase, changed his mind, tried to engineer a move, renegotiated and contract end date changed. A 10 year old playing Cluedo could put all the clues together for a plausible timeline of events. Essentially his actions meant we lost out on a decent potential transfer fee (however would he have been pursued if it was attached to his signature?). I accept the alternative was having a petulant wean playing centre half till next summer. When it quacks like a duck, floats like a duck, looks like a duck and is called Daffy ...... it's probably a fucking duck. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to the Club's own records his Contract Date end was extended by one month, a month in which Motherwell did not have a game. So that appears to be a fact and certainly points to the duck being a duck. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
