Lord Pityme Posted July 17, 2019 Report Share Posted July 17, 2019 With the news that Heaton is to be released, which will involve a payoff. How much have this board paid out on getting rid of players, managers coaches etc..? feck me I bet Goody would love to have that budget to bring in a wee bit of quality like big Verheydt. Maybe thats why he cant get them in as the money has been spaffed on pay offs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly I don't see the early payoff regime ending in the near future, i think we are in the money-go-round fraternity, where almost everyone involved gets a cut of the deal in one way or another.

FTOF Posted July 17, 2019 Report Share Posted July 17, 2019 How much? Nobody knows, but I'm sure someone will make up a figure to suit whichever agenda they have. Also it's "paid" not "payed", unless your working on a ship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like Tansey is next in line for a pay off given he's been frozen out like Heaton. well he was a resounding success for Gus's "Money Bollocks" strategy! Signed for Eighteen months, on the back of a long term injury, manged SIX, yes SIx appearances. Got injured ( really) and now looking like he will be let go with A YEAR's wages in his sky rocket! Yip this MoneyBall thing has definitely worked a charm.... for Gregg! Good luck to you mate! Hope tou get fixed up with a club soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We waited long enough to get a decent return on one of our players (J McGinn) , and in the space of a year that looks like it's been wasted. Terrible mismanagement of the clubs funds.

Kearney was owed two years wages. it doesnt take a genius to work out that Goody will be likely working with the lowest budget in the league, and probably lower than some in the championship too! I bet managing Alloa will seem like those long, long summers we used to have, to JG now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That aside though, it really has become an unhealthy habit and one that as you suggested, can only hinder our chances of being more competitive.

Guest TPAFKATS Posted July 17, 2019 Report Share Posted July 17, 2019 Did we really need another thread on this when so many others already have debate and discussion on budget and staff being released /paid off?Particularly when the original post is adding nothing new.

Ayrshire Saints Posted July 17, 2019 Report Share Posted July 17, 2019 Players have left us by "mutual consent" since the day I started supporting Saints. It's nothing new and has gone on for decades. Amazingly this also happens at other clubs too, it's a fact of football life. It will continue to happen for decades more too. Some transfers work out, some don't and it has always been the case. Idoubt if the percentage is any higher now than it was 5, 10. 20 or 30 years ago.

We need to plan for the championship now and a level we can actually compete financially in due to the total mismanagement of our club. The current squad couldn’t win League 1 never mind stay in the premier and I don’t believe 3 or 4 new signing will change that. We need a whole new team.

I would argue strongly that we hardly ever previously 'paid up' a players contract, especially when they either never, or hardly made an appearance.

Yes we still dont know who and when we will sign so difficult to forecast how we might fare. The genuine worry amongst fans i think is with two weeks to gontill the league campaign kicks off, we are threadbare and run the risk of being quickly detached from the pack if we start off as we are. personally i am not worried about the league cup, it's basically pre season to me, an opportunity for the manager to get his strategy over to the squad. And their chance to hit peak condition, and bed in new recruits. At present, given the evidence of who finished the season in our first team last season! There are a few players in our current squad that wont/shouldnt be seen as first team picks. after tonight we have two games in a week to build a team to compete. We will be playing catch up all over again, the only difference maybe who with? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nowhere whatsoever does it say anywhere that Tansey is surplus to requirements and been told to move on. Heaton is not owed two years wages. As far as I am aware, we have told him he is free to find another club. I also believe (could be wrong), the transfer fee of £75k was not paid in full and was broken down into installments/milestones depending on certain criteria. Kearney is not owed 2 years wages.

Do you get the concept of a contract? If its for 18 months, 2 years or 3 years.... if onebparty wants to break it (i.e, telling Heaton he can go) that party still has to honour whatever financial obligations they entered into i.e. Paying the remainder of the contract, or perhaos compromising based on said player getting a similar or lower paid gig elsewhere. So Heaton will get a pay off, as will Tansey if reports of him being frozen out are true. As did Oran! you honestly think any player, completely dropped by the club will say "oh... i am free to go, ok then dont bother paying me the remainder of my contract, i'll just sign on" the club hope he can get a paid gig elsewhere, have to say that doesnt look too likely!

Jrok Posted July 17, 2019 Report Share Posted July 17, 2019 It is true that Tansey is training at a rugby club alone!?What has Heaton done that he had to find another club?Oran is another example of issues at the club regardless of blame.Yes players come and go, mistakes are made.None of this puts our club in a good light and surely someone is responsible and should be held accountable.The affect it has on the team on the park and the results in future will show how these issues reflect our league position.

I'm sure at the end of last season there was talk that if his rehab went well he might be back in full training before the league campaign began and begin his own pre-season a few weeks after the other players.
