If his head is screwed on and he is fit he should be playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steelboy Posted January 2, 2022 Report Share Posted January 2, 2022 Player have had their pre contracts cancelled due to injuries. Celtic did it to a Polish player. Martyn Corrigan had apparently made an agreement to move down South before getting injured in his final game of the season and ended up staying at Fir Park. The same thing happened to Richard Brittain when got injured after signing a pre contract with St Johnstone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He changed his mind about going to St Johnstone and Ross County ended up having to pay compensation to get him out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smiddy Posted January 2, 2022 Report Share Posted January 2, 2022 the question is ,,,, if he stays , and we play him, do we trust him in the situation i was asking regards to the 50/50 ?????? personally i dont, nothing to do with him as a guy, only the mindset says , dont get injured, how do you see that steelboy ???????

St Johnstone wanted 50k to cancel but I'm not sure how that materialised as some sources said it was paid some say it wasn't. Motherwell wise, we cancelled a pre contract deal for a Finnish International called Harri Ylonen who signed during Kampman's era, same with a Faroe International who scored an equaliser against Scotland not long after but his name escapes me.

yosemite sam Posted January 3, 2022 Report Share Posted January 3, 2022 Lets be clear, they need him in right now, so we play hard ball and make sure we screw them for every pound we can. If they don't come up with the cash , he stays until the end of the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, a rival club, United, want to sign one of our better players and for us to take 2 of their unwanted players off their hands and wage bill? Aye right!

Agreed,any deal that involves getting a player off them shouldn't be up for discussion.the way the league is shaping up there a direct rival and there's no way we can give them our top scorer and get dross that can't get a game for them in return.i still think we will sign a striker no matter what happens with watt but I can see this rumbling on to the end of the month and him moving on then.

Spiderpig Posted January 3, 2022 Report Share Posted January 3, 2022 I can't believe the club would entertain letting Watt go in January middle of the season your top scorer probably at peak fitness moving to a direct rival for the top 6, Euro places etc. Tell untd to jog on and expect him in the summer having had no game time for 4 months, not match fit and bored from picking the skelfs from his arse from all that time on the bench. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His team rock bottom 10 points adrift Is there any way we could do a deal,loan or otherwise with the TW"fee"wages?with roberts goin back t hearts do we go back in for him or free up his loan wages,parker gone freeing up a minimal wage and talk of bevis going(hope not)looks to b a few quid in the coffers,just depends wot shankland is earning in belgium,could we get close to that,we know wot he can do in scottish football 103 goals in 158 games for ayr n utd As u said lets get the rumor started ; ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
