Raith Against The Machine Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 7 minutes ago, Raith_Raver said: "John McGlynn is a very resourceful manager, and he was indeed already considering the possible options open." I wonder if that means he has a ready replacement in mind or that he has decided how he will rearrange the team once Tait has left.... I took that as a reference to McGlynn's plan to move Musonda into midfield. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Offshore Rover Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 By the sounds of it Tait was likely to go next summer anyway so surly we would want to maximise the fee now rather than essentially a season later. Maybe this isn’t a bad deal at all. Have to laugh at Hibs trying to pull a rangers on us by offering a few jobbers on loan. Good on the board for telling them where to go, we all know previous boards would have said yes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raith_Rasta Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 I’m annoyed a bit. A down south sell would defo get us a saucy sell on fee. Hibs go get bullied like they bullied us since it’s SPL. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do have a significant sell on fee, what this is no one knows but I would imagine 20% or more 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broken Algorithms Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 So we,ve brought an unhappy player back on loanTait, based on what the club is saying, isn't unhappy given the resolution. He's got a move to a top flight team and will have undoubtedly increased his wages. He's happy to remain with us on loan until January while we're short before joining up with Hibs.He'd only have been unhappy had we kicked back on the move, which we initially did because we're so short in central midfield. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think McGlynn was intending to move Musonda into a DM position anyway given our surfeit of CD's. He isn't a like for like replacement for Tait. It's a possibility tho, but at the cost of our fluent attacking play. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovers_Lad Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 McGlynn made it seem if the deal hadn,t gone through we,d have an unhappy player on our books Hes happy to remain at us as hes no choice or deal doesn,t happen To me its made to look that McGlynn brokered/sanctioned the deal,personally be surprised if that was the case Taits a very good player in the championship but unlikely to be vying for a place in Hibs 1st team in January.Expect to go out on loan to some other mob Anyway,hes been sold and thats it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RRFC2711 Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 Tapping up? It’s simple Hibs go to Dylan’s agent and say we want the lad the agent then consults Dylan and explains the offer….Dylan accepts and the club gets involved in negotiations for a settlement. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TxRover Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 4 minutes ago, Cardle is Magic said: Seems more mental that it was 20 years ago. Changed the world forever. More mental is pondering exactly how many “events” you’ve seen and which actually “changed” things worldwide. For instance, for me: COVID-19 - Duh 9/11 - Yep, changed lots Dunblane - Nope, but influential in U.K. Desert Shield/Storm - Yep, repercussions still being felt Lockerbie - Perhaps, somewhat changed air travel Fall of Berlin Wall - Yep, presaged the collapse of the U.S.S.R. Challenger explosion - Nope, only influential in the U.S. Falklands War - Nope, limited influence, mainly in U.K. and South America Shooting of Pope John Paul II - Nope U.S. Embassy evacuation in Saigon - Somewhat, reduced U.S. world stature Apollo moon landing - Yep, changed the world And that’s but a selection of things that jump out. The major items fall about 10-20 years apart. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rover the Moon Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 Five days to issue a statement he was forced into making… and still Sim managed to cock it up first time. McGlynn obviously not happy with the buck passing effort in the original. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
