Callum lives in Haddington so Spartans is half of the journey to Perth. His business partner is James Craigen, who also plays for Spartans and encouraged him to sign. Spartans paid upfront cash for him to Saints and are making up some of the rest of his wages with appearance fees, goal fees etc. We have already covered his wages for this month and more… He is basically off the wage budget if he stays fit Edited January 13 by R.B.B:- Adz Havana Saint 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R.B.B:- Adz Posted January 14 Report Share Posted January 14 How would we feel about Jephcott returning south and Marc McNulty coming in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it's pretty clear Jephcott isn't in Levein's plans so if he has alternative options he should be allowed to go whenever he wants to. Not convinced we actually need to replace him at all unless it's for someone who has an exceptional CV and is too good to turn down. I don't really know anything about McNulty but he doesn't seem to fit that description. With Kimpioka, Clark, May, Kane and DJ in the squad, I'd say we have enough strikers/forwards.

Yes, I’d assumed that Kimpioka was Jephcott’s replacement and it was only a matter of time before he was off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be that we're paying such a small amount of his wages, that it's just not worth sending him back. I imagine Brown, May and Jephcott are being offered around. Doubt anyone will want Crawford, but Queen's Park on loan maybe or back to Hamilton? Looks like we'll just to pay MacPherson until the end of the season due to injury.

Downside is that he is playing. Plus side is he’s having a stinker and also they have signed Luke Chambers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FIFA regs. state a player can register with 3 clubs in a season, but only play for 2. Strange I know, but doesn't rule out his return.

RandomGuy Posted January 17 Report Share Posted January 17 2 hours ago, templeofsaints said: 6 goals and 2 assists in 16 games isnt a bad return from a midfielder. 2 free kicks, and hes played as a winger. Also worth mentioning Scunthorpe are in the 6th tier down there now, and Jacob Butterfield plays in the same team and has 7 goals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
