Agree though, all saying they were amazed Sevco hadn’t signed him up already, clearly wanting it to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's different ways of looking at that really It's possible that we couldn't afford the money that he was after, however I imagine it's more likely that we didn't think he was worth as much as he wanted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(For want of a better option) So we're just going to give up midfield....with no ball winner there, our defence is going to be under some amount of pressure....

I don't see how we suddenly have money to pay someone 10k a week when we've still not fully paid for the stand. Is our average wage not about 2k a week?

Levein said something about attitude recently and giving off the vibe that they were excited about playing for us. What we don't need again are players who are just here to pick up a wage and have little or no buzz or enthusiasm about being here. As far as Naismith is concerned the next forty eight hours and we'll know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
