Most clubs tend to want tall keepers and he must have been 1 of the smallish in height in our league. As for his wages, signing on fee, club car, club house, image right i don't know what he will get and either does anybody else on here Eh? He’s 6ft 3. He’s hardly a short arse.

Prague Buddie Posted August 20, 2020 Report Share Posted August 20, 2020 1 hour ago, Ayrshire Saints said: Given the salary caps down South I doubt this will be the big payday many think. He might be on better money but if he is it won't be much bigger. The 1.5m squad max covers wages, signing on fees, agents fees and image rights and most "experts " seem to think in will equate to about 1000-1200pw. If he is on bigger money then good luck to him, if he isn't then it just proves my point even more that he isn't as highly rated as some/majority of our fans may have thought Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t mind, but the prospect of Hladky signing for Salford doesn’t prove a single thing you said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point all along was that he was 'one' easily replaceable (Alnwick) and 'two' not as good or highly rated as most Buddies thought (Hence why he didn't get that BIG move). I said it before and I will say it again. I saw him play for years before he joined us and he was bang average. I would say my point has been proven. Unless you can give me some evidence to prove otherwise???? Edited August 20, 2020 by Prague Buddie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "proof" is always going to be subjective.I saw him in almost every home game he played and a number of away games.I still say that on the strength of what I witnessed, he was one of the most talented keepers I've seen play for Saints.Best distribution by a mile.Reliable. Very few unforced errors.I wish him well at his new club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, the times I saw him play in the 5 or 6 years previous was nothing special. So based on that, the year and a bit great form for us didn't tempt a BIG club to make an offer,as I predicted. I do agree with you though, he was superb for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Vaclav has hung up his gloves and hasn’t aspired to anything higher than us. Your opinion of him is based on his time as a bit part player for Slovan Liberec (I’m still unconvinced by how much of him you saw, but will have to take your word for that) and his time with us where you have just described him as “phenomenal”. So I’m still struggling to understand your view of him being nothing special. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In all seriousness and slanging matches aside, I just believe you and the majority of our fans are over-rating him based on only seeing him for just over a year. Yes, he had an outstanding time with us, but I just cannot forget him failing to hold on to the number one spot at every opportunity he was given at Liberec.

Tommy Posted August 20, 2020 Report Share Posted August 20, 2020 Eh? He’s 6ft 3. He’s hardly a short arse. I always thought he was 6ft max. Fair due if that is his height. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

windae cleaner Posted August 21, 2020 Report Share Posted August 21, 2020 The only thing that should be bumped Is his agent many old firm were surprised that he isn't at their club They rated him best keeper outwith their own Far better than Bain For the ones ripping their heid off about Alnwick I remember Kello being impressive at the start didn't last Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsidebud Posted August 22, 2020 Report Share Posted August 22, 2020 I also thought he would sign at a higher level - however if he performs like he did for us I don't think he will be in League 2 for long. I think he will be on a decent wedge so that will soften the blow. A minor backwards/sideways step that gets him on to a bigger ladder 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a major backward/ sideways step, We were his window to go on to a better level. It wasn't just Stmirren fans who thought he was a class player all the other clubs fans did too.. including the old firm fans. Jim Goodwin said his only weakness was his height to play in England..

Jim knows his stuff Fair enough - Its definitely a backward/sideways step - and I thought he would get a better move - I said both these things. My point is that he now has a chance to prove himself in the English leagues - might be too late for him or it might not be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
