Sounds as though the Egyptians are being really difficult about this whole thing We all know which way this is going. Fifa will refuse permission. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sting777 Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 (edited) If what I read earlier is right, the dispute is solely money based between Coulibaly and his club. Not sure how keeping him from earning a wage is going to help solve the case! He plays well with us the likelyhood is that a far bigger club will pick him up and the money situation might be solved.

I think it's a matter of principle aswell. Fifa won't allow it due to the precedent it would set. If players find out they can walk out on contracts and sign elsewhere with no issues apart from paying back their contract over a few years, football would be fucked for smaller teams. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forameus Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 So when do we think we'll announce that we've given up? Can see no way of him ever actually taking to the field for us. Unless he does the 50/50 draw. "So Souleymane...Egypt are pure bawbags aren't they?" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coach Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 On 12/09/2018 at 14:47, Midlife Crisis said: It's clear from the Chief Exec comments that Archibald is not under threat and has a job for life. Quite incredible that the board cannot see what we can all see. I believe that there is now a majority of fans who want to see change in the management team and if we lose this weekend, it will be near impossible for Gerry or chairman or anyone else not to do that. I have watched the Chief Executive's latest effort on camera... the word pathetic springs to mind. Ger... why dont you listen to the fans and if results continue as they have done - especially a lack domestic wins alone ( which elsewhere would result in the manager being replaced) - clear out the entire backroom staff? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian Madaschi Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Sena signs for the reserves. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coach Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 2 minutes ago, Adrian Madaschi said: Sena signs for the reserves. Came through the Jimmy Johnstone Academy. His mother had problems obtaining a visa to stay in the country, but that has eventually been resolved.. Sena's development continued with the excellent and dedicated coaches at Pollok Under-19s, and his potential was spotted by the Juniors set-up. From what I have seen, his best position is in central defence. Juniors manager Tony McInally has used him in midfield, and he has become a big favourite with the Newlandsfield Park supporters. Can I wish this man every success at senior level. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GNU_Linux Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Rooting for Sena to do well. If he ever goes out on loan we're calling first dibs tah. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuctifano Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 What position did he play? He's played CB for us in the reserve games and and been ragdolled but also been mentioned he's a CM. Obviously still very young and he's got 2 and a bit years on his deal which, along with the actual work permit uncertainty being removed should give him a bit more stability. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CommonSense Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 How long are the Partick Thistle board going to wait, until the team becomes detached from any potential play off slot ? Archibald has been a loyal servant to the club and had a good spell as manager, but seems to have lost the ability to sign decent players as well as not being able to teach the team how to defend. Time to go before he tarnishes all the good things he has done in the past, thanks for the memories, please don't sour it by hanging on by your fingernails. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pie Of The Month Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 (edited) Maxwell said last September the board won't wait around forever for the season to turn around. Since he said that we've won 10 out of 40 league games (including the 2 playoff games) and been relegated. Safe to say the club will wait a while longer.
