We dont have high expectations here, but cant wait to see his face when he nets his first though. He could have been pushing for closure, as much as anyone, to get out of Aberdeen and avoid the loan scenario. Just fantastic all round by the club, by Wright, Broon, Stevie and Mr Vine apparently. I hope they market the hell out of this. south inch and Steg 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy Posted July 23, 2019 Report Share Posted July 23, 2019 Robert Thomson confirmed the deal, and Matty Kennedy is quoted talking about being excited to play with him. The deals done. Paperwork will be complicated due to his situation at Aberdeen, Robert Thomson also tweeted it likely wouldn't be announced today. Centre back doesnt arrive in Scotland until "later in the week".

I doubt it now, but thats just guesswork. I assume, since its not a transfer, May will have to be released by Aberdeen, with all the paperwork sent to the SFA to make him a free agent, and then when thats processed all the paperwork for him signing has to be sent through and processed. Aberdeen named him their Europa squad yesterday aswell, so that maybe adds another complication as they'll now have to de-register him.

Johnny B Posted July 23, 2019 Report Share Posted July 23, 2019 If all the talk is to believed, he can cancel his registration with one piece of paper in his right hand and then hand over his St Johnstone registration with his left hand. Simple if all the talk of him being released and signed a 3 year contract is to be believed. I am one doubting Thomas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that is indeed the same system that they use when a youth player transfers to another team, I can well believe that it will be a less than rapid process. Would have thought they could fast-track premiership moves mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
