The African Posted March 23, 2018 Report Share Posted March 23, 2018 I used to love international football. The World Cups of my youth, Argentina, Spain, Mexico, were periods of great joy where nothing mattered except the football. Now? I cannot bring myself to give a toss about it and cannot see this changing. Perhaps it is just me? I have changed and it is my fault? Or maybe football has changed and I should be more than satisfied with EPL and the Champions League? Perhaps I could support Man City or Spurs or Real Madrid and get with the programme? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livivoice Posted March 29, 2018 Report Share Posted March 29, 2018 Still on the ` Scotland Call Up ` thread [ and unless its previously been mentioned by someone else]I dont think it is unreasonable that Aldred on his current form could be an outside bet for a call up for the upcoming matches in Mexico and Peru. Yup, Mc Kenna and Hendry have done well and Mulgrew is a shoe in. But there is no guarantee Celtic will let Hendry go on tour. As for the others I think Hanley has dropped down the pecking order after the Costa Rica game. Martin meantime may now have missed the boat whilst Berra and Souttar werent called up. Our Tom is a nice age and is proving to be a reliable no nonsense type of centre back. He`s worth a shout in my book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ONeils4oyarder Posted March 29, 2018 Report Share Posted March 29, 2018 Hanley will be in the squad if he is available...I doubt Aldred will be in Ecks plans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobey_Dosser Posted March 29, 2018 Report Share Posted March 29, 2018 Hendry, Souttar and Hanley will likely be the options for right centre half. We could be doing with some experience though to talk the young ones through the game, particularly if we go for 3 at the back. While Cadden hasn’t developed as much as we’d have liked this season, I think he could play his way into the Peru/Mexico trip with some good performances in the upcoming high profile games. While Budapest showcased some of the talent we have at our disposal, right wing back is one of the few areas we lack any genuine depth in quality.

Has he signed a pre-contract with the OF? Because that's the only way he's gonna get a nod. Murphy is a shoe in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scoojy Posted May 4, 2018 Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 Heard on a podcast this week that Murphy's contract has a compulsory purchase clause. Not sure how true that is, or what other conditions are attached to that clause, but it seems it was 'you will buy him once you've got season ticket money' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DunnyMFC Posted May 4, 2018 Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 Didn't know such a clause could exist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knowing Rangers, however, even if it was a requiurement, they wouldn't hesitate to break it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al B Posted May 4, 2018 Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 I had always taken it as being a "compulsory sell" clause in that they couldn't sell him to anyone else, as opposed to a compulsory purchase. I fully expect Rangers to have mysteriously decided against it for some reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fully expect Rangers to have mysteriously decided against it for some reason. I said at the time of the initial transfer/loan situation I'd be amazed if Murphy was still there next season - based purely on my expectation there would be a new manager with their own ideas about personnel (and no money to spend on Murphy). Then again, I thought there would be no way Gerrard would be stupid enough to believe the stories he'll be spun about transfer kitties and war chests, but it looks like I'll be wrong there too. I already saw the first reports about the Board begging for more investment so they could by more players. (I'm wrong so often, I should be a professional pundit).

Wellfan1984 Posted May 16, 2018 Report Share Posted May 16, 2018 In loan contracts there is a compulsory buy/sell contract that can be attached. I remember hearing about it on the European Football show. Basically player goes on loan till x date, while agreeing terms with loaning team to officially join on y date. The player had to play in 15 games before the clause would go through Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeyin Posted May 16, 2018 Report Share Posted May 16, 2018 Regardless - clubs break contracts all the time. Sacking managers, and ditching players are the most common examples, but Rangers have many more examples of breaking contracts recently.

Al B Posted May 16, 2018 Report Share Posted May 16, 2018 In all fairness you can put whatever you like in a contract as long as both parties agree to it and it's legal (I know.....I know....). Who knows what that basket case of a club would suggest/ask for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richie Posted May 17, 2018 Report Share Posted May 17, 2018 Chris Cadden has now been called up to the (full) Scotland squad for the Mexico/Peru games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ONeils4oyarder Posted May 17, 2018 Report Share Posted May 17, 2018 If Mcleish is struggling for a wing-back, then Tait is his man...if hes struggling for a central midfielder then Campbell is a better option than Cadden. Best of Luck to him though, and I hope it gives him a wee boost ahead of Saturdays game 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeyin Posted May 17, 2018 Report Share Posted May 17, 2018 Is Ryan Fraser not a winger? I thought Cadden was brought in as an option to play wide right, rather than wingback or mid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burn_Broomfield Posted May 17, 2018 Report Share Posted May 17, 2018 I would prefer him not to head across the World for these ludicrous friendlies with such a shambolic, rudderless squad. He would benefit, both himself and the Club, with the summer off for a change. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
