Not a rumour mate. I literally have the WhatsApp’s. It came from me.
My wee brother, also a ST holder used to work with one of Chris Kane’s school pals and is still really friendly with him. It’s the only reason I never posted them anywhere.
I’m sure Barry G will show you them if you ask, I sent them to him.
On the day he signed his contract, my brother got a message saying “playing with us again tonight, will probably be injured again next season hahaha” then there was one a week later saying “lasted 10 mins and had to go in goal after getting injured”.
Before an injury had been announced.
I’ve known about him playing for years. Always thought it was sketchy, but to do so after the club have backed you through a 16-17 month injury is gross negligence in my book.
