Struggling to understand the logic of not giving a 30 year old a 3 year deal but giving a 34 year old a 2 year deal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is that wages were the main stumbling point. Especially given the rigmarole we went through in January with Livi. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you really suggesting that Murphy will be on less than Mullen? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diegomarahenry Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 I wasn't convinced signing Mullen was the right thing to do. He was either inconsistent or he just chose to play when he wanted, he was good in the first few weeks, turned up again when he was looking for a deal and then phoned in to games. He never bothered his arse in the play-offs and left days after. Is that someone you want tied to for three years? I'd have been ok with him staying but I'm not upset he left. Murphy is older, with experience, like McGuire so he comes with a risk. He's an upgrade on the wide players we have regardless. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mullen was contracted to a team who just finished in the top six. Murphy was out of contract with a team who spent all season staring at relegation, and is two years older. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there’s a presumption that because he’s come from a higher level and he’s a bit of a name then he’s going to be on big bucks. I’d say he’d be on roughly the same as Mullen if not a bit less. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyrExile Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 I have no doubt about Murphy's ability and attitude it's more if he can stay fit. Think he's had a few bad injuries during his career that stopped him going places. Would say a 2 year deal is more of a risk than a three year one for Mullin all things considered 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know something, I’ve been one of the few who’ve spelt it right all along but I’ve seen it spelt “Mullen” so often I have now been brainwashed into spelling it incorrectly. Thank you for calling it out though as it drives me nuts. See also, Luke McGowan and Chris McGuire. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There should be a law against that. See also Morton signing Darragh O'Connor. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
