Didn’t see that coming, but of course I’m glad he’s away from the club for now. You could still be paying a percentage of his wages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael W Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 I am shocked* he has returned there after the (justified) flak we took over the signing. *Not really shocked. More surprised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broken Algorithms Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Happy he's away from the club but at the same time, we'll no doubt be still covering part of his wages. The article mentions he's expected to re-join Clyde in the summer. What a stupid fucking saga this has all been. We've paid a fee for him, gifted him the easiest payday of his life, pissed off out supporters, sponsors while looking completely inept and tone deaf, only to loan him back to Clyde a month later. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That'll be a given, likewise for Raith though you'd think the percentage that Clyde are covering, means that it costs Raith less than paying him off. The state of some Clyde fans is enough to make you lose hope for football fans, what a vile bunch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's been a reality since he signed his contract. There wasn't really an "honourable" way out for the Rovers after that point, it was always going to involve giving a rapist quite a lot of money. I don't imagine anyone feels particularly good about this move today, but selfishly from a Rovers point of view it's at least going to reduce the financial liability. I don't think it's any better or worse, morally, than just paying him up. Clyde, though? Wooft. Why invite this grief onto yourself? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paco Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Clyde, though? Wooft. Why invite this grief onto yourself? I genuinely don’t mean this to embolden the ‘where’s wee Nippy noo, eh?’ brigade but I find it unlikely there’ll be much backlash. World events will mean that senior sports journalists simply won’t be racing to Broadwood the way they did to Stark’s Park, and any political journalist with the First Minister in front of them surely won’t be wasting questions on a third-tier football player. They’ll get away with it. The Scottish football bubble will be annoyed for a little while, the majority of Clyde fans who had no issue before will still have no issue and that’ll be that.

I know some Clyde fans like to jump to the ah but he did nothing wrong pish, however using a Tinie Tempah song is surely proof enough never to have him back.

Nightmare Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Clyde had the perfect chance to rid themselves of the Goodwillie circus forever, but instead of just trying to put the whole sorry affair behind them and attempting to regain even a modicum of respect as a football club, they’ve only gone and doubled down. A truly deplorable wee outfit. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
