Scoring when presented with an open goal would help as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for who he supports, or supported as a youngster, I couldn’t give any less of a sh*t. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lubo_blaha Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 From the looks of it we might be demanding 6 figures [emoji3] If JET is out of contract, Livi wouldn’t be entitled to anything, handshake or not. Martindale has said that he hasn’t activated the automatic extension in his contract so he’d be completely entitled to walk away for nothing, whether that’s to a club in the UK or overseas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tarapoa Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 If we do sign Emmanuel-Thomas (naebody JET's me) then hopefully it's no more than a back-up enigma type player, to a couple of more proven strikers. His career is the epitomy of journeyman. Didn't we get Pasquinelli from Livingston? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did someone sound the "compare two players klaxon"? Spoiler Percentage score is how similar they are in style. Blue performance bar means "elite" for that level. tl:dr Dykes do more runny and shooty, JET do more head head and passy, both big and strong. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martindale has said that he hasn’t activated the automatic extension in his contract so he’d be completely entitled to walk away for nothing, whether that’s to a club in the UK or overseas. He's out of contract but has an extension clause that only activates if he is to sign for another club in the UK. So basically we'll activate that extension and sell him straight away. He had an agreement with Martindale that if he went to Asia we wouldn't activate it. 9 minutes ago, Bob Mahelp said: On the Lyndon Dykes-o-meter, maybe the Livi guys could tell us how JET rates ? He's about a 2/10 on the Dykes scale. Dykes was an all round phenomena when it came to strikers, JET is a decent finisher and tricky with the ball at his feet but has zero pace and zero work rate off the ball. Play the ball in to his feet and you're fine, he'll do the hold up play well 6 minutes ago, Merkland Red said: £10k is more than we offered Graeme Shinnie to stay and more than Joe Lewis' current wage.

He's not on a lot of money with us but he was here to get fit basically Edited May 15, 2021 by ATLIS 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tarapoa Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 (edited) Decent interview from Glass on Red TV - saying what I hoped he'd say, rather than trying to embellish it as some kind of hard luck story.....................and making the point that suddenly playing well when 2-0 down and the opponents have taken the foot off the gas is not really a sign of a good side. Obviously he now knows that he doesn't need to keep a lot of these guys on his side any more. Edited May 15, 2021 by tarapoa 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he agrees to sign for another club in the UK, an extension clause is activated. Because the extension clause is activated he is still a Livingston player. However, if the buying club then pulls out because they have to pay a fee, he is then a free agent again? And the pantomime starts again? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd speculate 3 million plus add ons. Good business if it does transpire. The likelihood is Allan Campbell who many believe would be a solid replacement for Ferguson will be off to England himself. I anticipate the signings will be a bit more exciting then Robertson and Jay Emmanuel Thomas going forward. Hoban and Taylor have played their last game apparently.

And the pantomime starts again? Yeah basically, sounds like a very weird situation. I imagine it's maybe a little more simple and the 'handshake' and 'gentleman's agreement' part is us not activating it if he goes abroad. If he doesn't then we extend it and make a club pay a fee. Very weird situation though. Could end up messy if one side pulls out at any point 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
