palmy_cammy Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 That is far more depressing than El Bakhtaoui leaving.Falkirk are causing us more problems in League 1 than they did last season. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would have been a great signing but as soon as Falkirk got involved we had no chance . On our budget it is very difficult to sign players our best hope is to get 2 players in on loan with the hope that the parent club will pay most of the players wages .

Made 18 appearances, played over 800 minutes in total, contributed absolutely nothing and was a waste of a shirt. He's one of those players that will no doubt become Messi by the end of the season since it's an area of the pitch that we have to play Sean bloody Mackie in, but he was largely garbage. Can see there was a player in there and he showed wee flashes from time to time but he can have no complaints about being moved on tbh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might happen, but it would finish me Can I ask if you supported Queens before they went "full time"? If you did support them back then what's the difference that would stop you supporting them if they returned to part time? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fae_the_'briggs Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 I'm a bit disappointed rather than gutted that Todd hasn't signed for us. Understandable that secured a permanent signing at Falkirk rather than a loan here. I hope we don't have the usual suspects claiming we didn't try hard enough to sign him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Todd had the option of coming back to us on loan but wanted a permanent deal to cover the remaining 18 months of his Dundee contract on much the same money we could not get anywhere near what Dundee or Falkirk are now paying him . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you state yourself, QoS didn't try hard enough to sign him. Falkirk certainly tried harder and got their man. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example. Figures maybe wrong of course but you get the drift !!!! I would also imagine Dundee would have had to pay him off from his current contract. So all in all Todd has done well out of the deal. Pay off, similar salary, 18 month contract, happy days 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
