GlenburnSaint Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 Season ticket sales are going well regardless. I don't think its time to panic yet. Brian mentioned the contracts expire on the 30th of June down South. Still very early . Our rivals have signed a couple of players but in all honesty we haven't missed out on much. Decent chance Thistle could get stung offering Stevenson a 2 year deal in the same way we have been stung offering 2 dear deals to duds/injury prone players. All very well saying Partick could get stung but he isnt exactly injury prone. Id like to know what we offered compared to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GlenburnSaint Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 I thought we offered him a year compared to Thistle offering 2 years. Stupid move once more by the BOD if thats the case. He would have just gone for a free next season as we were obviously offering shite wages as usual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kendo Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 Why would you offer someone who has a dodgy injury record more than a year? Let's see how many games he plays with Thistle, he is a bit of a gamble IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevo_smfc Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 Stupid move once more by the BOD if thats the case. He would have just gone for a free next season as we were obviously offering shite wages as usual. We had to pay the likes of Guy, Imrie, Grainger, to name a few to leave early from their 2 yr contracts as they werent up to standard.

FTOF Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 I thought we offered him a year compared to Thistle offering 2 years. 2 years plus a one year option. We've been stung by that before. Glad we didn't offer him those terms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll have offered what we can afford. We almost went out of business chasing a stupid dream, I really don't need to go through that again.

Drew Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 Not sure if Brian would be willing to answer this one, but I was wondering if the club could confirm whether any loan deals had/will have clauses built into them stipulating that the player must feature X amount of times during the season, if fit?

faraway saint Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 I will ask those questions mate. Please don't all bombard me with stuff though, I'm supposed to be working :-) Not sure if Brian would be willing to answer this one, but I was wondering if the club could confirm whether any loan deals had/will have clauses built into them stipulating that the player must feature X amount of times during the season, if fit?

I'm sure I read that's it's against temporary transfer rules to do so. The parent club can't demand the player plays every game, certain games min games etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not using him would probably rule out future loans, though I'm sure TC could smooth things over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not 100% sure, maybe BC via Div can clear it up but I reckon such clauses aren't allowed to be "written" into the contract. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
