tazhearts Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 I was thinking about this the other day. Vlad clearly wanted to keep him but quite rightly wanted to offer him a far lower basic wage with the rest of his salary made up of appearance fees etc. Pinilla rejected this deal as is his right but I wonder how he is getting on finding another club willing to offer him a better deal than that on the table by Hearts. A lot of teams will look at the number of games he has played in his career and will not want to take the risk. I therefor pose the question, if Pinilla can't find a better deal elsewhere could we / should we try and re-sign him (on the same reduced terms he refused when offered by Vlad)? Does anyone know if Pinilla is still in Edinburgh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

portobellojambo1 Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 Could we re-sign Pinilla? And there was me thinking you were going to put up a video showing that he was really Ugandan, and a rising star. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sked21 Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 You never know with Vlad. But I very much doubt it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Old Tolbooth Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 No shame at all, get the wage thief to fek! He would come back and show willing for 3 or 4 games, the pish off back to Chile claiming another broken toe nail, good riddance to bad news and one of the few decent things Vlads done.

Ryan Gosling Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 He went back to Chile late on Tuesday. He's got offers from Portugal but I think he's going to Mexico. We should forget about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wavydavy Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 so will we recieve any fee for him ??? or is this yet another one that has got away ???:confused: His contract was cancelled by mutual consent so no money will change hands if and when he ever finds another club. Remember this is the guy who said his main ambition was to retire from football by the age of 25. What he failed to say was that in the process he hoped to create a world record for playing the least number of games ever by a professional footballer whilst robbing the football clubs he occasionally played for of somewhere in the region of ?12k per week.

Therapist Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 if Pinilla can't find a better deal elsewhere could we / should we try and re-sign him (on the same reduced terms he refused when offered by Vlad)? We've already bent over backwards for Pinilla. His head's wasted. He's never fit. He's a distraction we can do without as we attempt to get things back on track. So basically, Pinilla GTF - waster.
