RandomGuy Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 Take the money but wondering of this shows our aspirations as a club to be just staying in this league still, no more than that.Getting rid of your exciting players does not entice people to come and watch, although wondering now if the speculation has affected the entire team as well as him. Anyway after that interview, he can go F&£k and f&£k off.... wee nyaff!Hopefully onwards and upwards for Saints, and either Brian or Tam remind him of who he used to play for next season...Nothing Saints could've done, players confirmed in his interview his head was turned at the start of January and he had absolutely no interest in playing for us after that. We;ve done well to get £500k. mainstand 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldPoster Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 So how much did we get in the end? and it that an official number? (source) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueheaven Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 (edited) The fact that there appear to have been no other bidders is very telling. Saints have taken the money and ran, because the guy's head had already been turned and if he'd carried on playing as poorly for us as he has been since this stuff all started, it'd be the last big offer we'd ever get for him.As much as I don't want to see us doing business with cheats like Sevco, on this occasion the club has done the right thing. Our success has been built on having players who want to be here and will bust a gut for us on the pitch. MOH no longer fit that description (if he did, we'd maybe be looking forward to a Cup final right now), so cheerio. Onwards and upwards.

croc Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 wouldyou get 500k for him?He hasnt asked me to punt him yet.! You could be right about selling our "Best Ass et though.! p.s. you are entitled to think he was our "Best Player" looks as though he has found his spiritual home at last.!

mainstand Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 Find that interview incredible.He said he was happy at Saints he wanted to try his hand down south etc etc all a load of push which makes you wonder how much of that you can actually believe.Got to be a question mark over the way Rangers handled this as he seem to know about this before the press speculation.Well done for the Board getting £500k for him given that he has made it clear in the interview that he was not interested in playing for us once he knew about the interest. Meh was interested in Saturday.akes you question how much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluesaint Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 The fact is we cannot blame the lad for taking what is essentially a higher paying job at the end of the day, everyone of us on here would more than likely take a higher paid job if we were offered... It's just the way it has happened that's annoyed us, wish he had went earlier in the window and we could have fielded another player in the semi final who actually wanted to play.... Zippy should have been playing that is a cert, enough said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andy rhodes fancy watch Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 Great bit of business, well done Stevie,Tommy and all who were involved. Now get 2 or 3 in to freshen it up for the rest of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denzil Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 Just another Orc shitebag. It's not going to end well for him there and the fact he can't see that illustrates just how thick he actually is. Onwards and upwards with players who actually want to play for us. To hell with the rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cagey Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 Would have been nice if he could just have thanked Tommy from saving him from obscurity & turning him from a headless chicken into a half decent player.Telling that there was no other interest.Four & half year contract is worth feck all in administration. myDarlingBeefeater and Havana Saint 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure he was going to go at some stage, but where he has gone is the issue. A club who have contunually failed to address their internal club and supporters bigotry against those of a particular faith. I find the whole thing very strange.

Center Half Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 MHO is no the sharpest tool in the box, he would have had someone shouting that interview out in his ear for an hour beforehand but as soon as he had to do the interview he would only remember a few words he had been told, Just ask Tommy and Callum! anything above £300K is a great bit of business by our Steve any more and we would risk getting a visit from the serious fraud squad.

croc Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 (edited) Cant believe he got played on saturday ahead of players who see their short term future at least with saints and would play in a cup final if we progressed.! there is no way he would have risked breaking a toenail ,if it meant his dream of moving to a club that is surviving on immoral yearnings would be compromised.! Hell mend Him.! and Inchcolm.!LAUGH OUT LOUD who I heard is in the frame for the the Youth Coach...! ...... Once he passes his PSV test.!

HOODLUM65 Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 MOH has been playing for weeks, as if he did not want to get injured. Remember the game at McD when he took a knock and signalled that he did not want to continue.Young Thomson should have been playing since the speculation started.

I find the whole thing very strange.so do I to be honest yea ok take the more money but I do agree he could have and should have thanked saints in that video, it was cringeworthy to say the least, I still say we can't blame him for taking more money but it's the way it's happened, who he has joined because we hate them, and it was just apparent he couldn't wait to go.

Gas Monkey Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 Don't care what becomes of him now. Showed either a complete lack of professionalism or weak mental character since beginning of January. Disappointed in TW now for putting him anywhere near that semi final squad, was not interested and hid to avoid injury. I hope Tommy apologises to zippy and others. Anyway we move on and I no longer care what becomes of him. SaintJet and jazzsaint 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
south inch Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 I presume the "undisclosed fee" bit is for Sevco's benefit. Whilst I have moved into the "shut the door behind you" camp I hope Steve hasn't let them off with too many installments or too many conditions. Can see that lot not wanting to cough up the final payment until he has seen out his 4 year contract. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We;ve done well to get £500k.Was there any mention of St.Johnstone ; did he thank the manager and the fans? No fvcking way am I watching that interview Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
