dakota7 Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 Disappointed we have missed out on Stevenson I only hope Tommy has better quality coming in or the board are yet again going for the cheap options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barney Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 Can only assume. The managerial situation may have swayed his decision. very much doubt that has anything to do with it. A better offer is more likely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 very much doubt that has anything to do with it. A better offer is more likely. As Lex has suggested, probably the length of the deal with a further option to extend. Given his age, that would appeal to Stevenson. Ah well, another rumour bites the dust. Onwards....

JJ McG Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 Excellent signing for Partick, that's him gone to Partick and Craig going back to Perth, Tommy must really be selling our club well, I'm dreading to see the dross we bring in at the last minute.

flyingscot Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 I doubt it's selling the club. It's probably more to do with the contracts and money on the table. If Thistle are willing to give a longer contract and more money then so be it. We defo need some positive signings soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billyg Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 Not too bothered re Stevenson , and a potentially 3 year deal for him was out of the question imo considering his record of being pretty disruptive at his various clubs. We can do better than him ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can do better than him ! Indeed. There's a decent chance Thistle could go down, the 3 year deal will hurt them then, if not before.

I would agree with this , I would say them , Accies and ICT will finish in the bottom 3 ,Dundee will waste money and be safe and probably struggle next season.

Drew Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 It seems he's only interested in keepers. Given the shambles last time round, I certainly wouldn't be faulting him for focussing on getting that area of the squad nailed down first.

If Thistle are willing to give a longer contract and more money then so be it. We defo need some positive signings soon. Why so be it? We need to start asking the question why we can never beat any other club to the signing of a player!! Even Partick Thistle are now more attractive and offering a better contract than us!!

Even Partick Thistle are now more attractive and offering a better contract than us!! Perhaps we are attempting to hold onto McLean and McGinn - both much better options than Stevenson, in my view. Who knows what is going on behind the scenes. I think we need to settle down a wee bit here. It would be good to get another player or two signed up sooner rather than later, so we know that further progress is being made, but it is early days.

Maybe TC has better players lined up , hope this is the case ,cant really see how Thistle could pay much more than us I think this ones has came down to length of contract.

saint in exile Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 I wish TC all the best in the post, and I hope he brings Saints to new heights. However, I'm worried that he might be more interested in the negative aspects of the game. A bit like wee grumpy's approach - grinding out a nil nil draw is success.
