dc-jambo Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 just saying a few things about loss of motivation at Sevco due to 'money'; contasted how psyched up he was on a Friday if Hearts were playing Hibs compared with being at Rangers and they are playing Annan ... indicated players had lost motivation because of this, the sense of disappointment when they arrived ... also useful info about wages, outrageous, and about how they just paid him what he asked, after telling the wife he'd take about half as much Good lad KK imho -- thanks for the memories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stupid Sexy Flanders Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 I read him talking about when he went to sign for Rangers, it was a similar story to the famous Seth Johnson/Leeds one, ie they offered him MUCH more than he would have accepted.

Slevinkelevra Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Listened to this earlier, said his wife had asked how much he would accept at rangers an he said 800 quid..... Got to the contract talks an was asked how much he wanted, he said a figure that he thought he had no chance of getting and they agreed straight away! Was on something 2500 a week. Also said there were players in 8k a week while they were in the 3rd division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Jambo Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 As amusing as it is for us, it does not shed him in good light. How so? It was really predictable that players from higher divisions that went for the money would find motivation hard. Human nature. That was Rangers mistake, but why would a decent journeyman not take the money when offered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is almost like admitting you are a parasite. I am delighted, but from Kyle's point of view, he does himself no favours, though I guess, where he is in his career, it will make little difference.

Agric Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 That video just reminds me of Gary glens miss ! Novi changed the game that day, anyone know where he is now ? Kevin kyles goal at piitodrie also stands out for me, a player with limited ability but makes up with desire. Great signing by JJ and did a good job undercover at sevco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Statto Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 I had no problem seeing Kyle sign for Rangers, he was just coming back from a lengthy injury and needed a club, I don't think he went there for the money, I feel he just wanted to get back playing again.

BIG ECK Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Thx for posting this fantastic clip. I was in the Gorgie, at the far corner, with him heading it in right towards me, and I'll never forget it. There was nothing that he said tonight, btw, that put him in 'a bad light' The only ones in a bad light are those posting to that effect I was sitting in the Wheatfield stand section C 3rd row when big KK scored that goal. Upon his celebrations I saw him heading in our direction and instantly made a bee-line towards the steps and down to the emergency gate at the botton. Thereafter mayhem erupted and the big man gave me one of the best cuddles I've ever received. Most of the other players were in there also and with many fans behind me pushing forwards, the gate gave way and I along with both my sons plus 2 or 3 others ended up on the trackside. The next day I bought 4 different papers with our photo celebrating the goal with the players and I've still got them to this day. Brilliant memories.

Walter Payton Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 And Jon Daly. Contract put down, "take it or leave it", about 3x what he would've signed for. On the flip side of the coin, I've heard stories of similar approaches to contract negotiation while Vlad was here. I'm pretty sure it was Ruben Palazuelos (though I could be wrong) where the agent was contacted for contract discussions, but genuinely couldn't immediately contact the player for some reason (though the player and agent had agreed between themselves that ?x000 p.w. would be enough for the player to sign the dotted line the next day). Unfortunately it seems that while Hearts 1st offer actually matched what the player and agent had agreed they were looking for, we took the agents insistence that the player wasn't immediately available to sign the contract as an indication that they were playing hard-ball and that more money would be required. The contract offer that the agent eventually took away (and was subsequently signed at the first opportunity by the player) was worth far more than it needed to be in order to secure the signing :-( I'm pretty sure that it was one of the shareholder dinners that story was shared at- any other regular attenders may be able to confirm exactly who the player in question was!

Erik Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 I don't think its particularly damning of KK at all. Starting off with an overly high request is pretty much the norm for all these kinda negotiations is it not?!? What it does confirm is that, like we ALL suspected ALL along..... Rangers simply chucked money at this from the word go without any sort of thought or consideration or responsibility whatsoever. And they still wonder how they've found themselves in this position?!?!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
