Edit - another aside, we do realise we're down to five posters now?
In this thread or on the site?

25 people visited in last week, 17 in last day which seems about usual.
It's because there's a buzz going round the forums that two guys on the internet have solved all the contract problems of modern football by aggressively dismissing all voiced objections .

Just up is an amazing non-story on the BBC website comprising of a few choice goals Rohnson Justle has scored in what looks like an advertising highlight reel.

Without the "Monsieur! Johnny! Russell!" goal against Rangers it's a poor attempt.

Russell might go overseas. .

Seems to say all the right things.

Yeah, excepting the bit about, "wanting the best outcome for all parties".
To my mind, that would involve a contract extension, so United can realise the best transfer fee possible, while JR still gets a fabulous contract elsewhere.
It looks like the opening salvos in a PR war, to me.
This is starting to look like it may get ugly.

Exactly, Reeks - Happy To Stay At Club for now = winding down his contract and leaving for free at the end of it. Said in the nicest possible manner of course.

Thinking of moving abroad = FFS Celtic, hurry up and make a bid for me or I'll be going somewhere else.

Well whatever he's saying or hinting he's saying all the right things and we can only wish him well. Its not as if he's done a Scott Allan strop

That's some serious plugging on the BBC website, a little (albeit shite) goals reel and constant publicity surrounding his decision. Jim Spence at the helm?

Seems like Justle's price is around £700k to a Championship club according to Spencey.

FFS Levein!

That's still £1.3m too low

Fell off the radar what with his injury. Would have expected around double 700k for him.

Hey ho.

Anyone take Derek Riordan as a replacement?

Worth a read even if your answer is No.

Even aside from the off field issues, on the field he's not been that good for a little while it seems.

Going to be a few out of work players I think though, so might be able to get a good 5 a side team.

Bid from Derby county rejected but it wasn't far away from what we are wanting apparently

Oh and Basher has signed for Lech Poznan.
