Stuy_O Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 So after lengthy scrutinising we've deduced that either he can't keep his cock in his pants or he hates Pardew so much he has to retire? The first one sounds more feasible tbf. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 If he decides to call time on his career, realistically what can NUFC do? Nowt. And if a few weeks/months down the line he changes his mind and signs for San Lorenzo? As far as I'm aware he wouldn't be allowed to. We hold his registration until the end of the contract.

Ikon Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 So Colo's option is to start playing in the black market league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pandamninator Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Did it have to be San Lorenzo? Surely one of the larger Argie clubs would've been happy to stump up a little bit of cash as a transfer fee and offer him decent wages for a current Argie international who was just named in the Premier League team of the year?

Ketsbaia Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Instead of everyone throwing rumours about, I think it's best to just wait and see. There's not enough information to speculate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

San Lorenzo are one of the larger Argie clubs. River/Boca are no less skint, it's a league-wide problem. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first one sounds more feasible tbf. Have a think about what you're writing please. Eh? read back a few more pages, i'm hardly stowing up any more controversy. The point i'm actually trying to make is that I can't for any reason this as anything other than serious domestic issue's (of which we know nothing), which he needs to resolve above all else, and nothing to do with his manager or club. The bloke must be having a terrible time of it, I still don't have this trait in his character and something must seriously be up for it to come to this.

B-more Mag Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 If he has a good reason that people could at least understand, even if not fully supporting his decision, you'd think he'd at least allude to it while keeping details private. Just a really weird situation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest TCD23 Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 I've got from the Guardian that he's not leaving, from ESPN that San Lorenzo have dropped yet the Independent claims he's leaving. I have no clue what is going on, we'll just have to wait for the next match to see. That said another CB is needed because Williamson really can't stay anywhere near the first team Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketsbaia Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Out of respect, probably. I know it's unusual for our media to respect someone's privacy but maybe the club have demanded it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 All a bit FUBAR this situation. Either way, properly shocked at the way some people are reacting to this and talking about Colo. Regardless of what he does now he has been a great servant of the club and I don't begrudge him a move now, especially if there is a decent reason for it. I certainly don't like the fact he wants to go and the timing, but some things are more important than football, he only wants to return home, which puts us in a bad position if the other team can't pay for him. We are certainly entitled to get some kind of compensation as a club but things are obviously a lot less clear cut than anyone on here knows. He isn't going to turn into another Michael Owen or like because Colo stuck with us through relegation and brought us up to fourth last season and has been a role model for everyone. We have no reason to doubt his professionalism on past evidence, deserves better than some of the comments on here imo. A quick question, rant aside. If we have turned down his request to leave, what happens if he just fucks off to Argentina anyway. We can fine him his wages until he returns but can we fine him more for compensation?

Quite clearly a breach of contract, it'll be a bit more the fines and more like taking it to Fifa to get a compensation for breach of contract and most likely some sort of ban. You can't just fuck off in football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 I think we just want and deserve to know (to some extent) why he wants to leave. If it is an illness then just say so, no need to say who or what, if it's marital or personal problems which makes his life her unbearable then just say, no need to say why, if it's the club he's fallen out with then just say.

Regardless of his exemplary past, walking out on us without coming clean during a relegation fight and whilst he is captain is still 'Owen'ish. If I cheated on my partner especially when she is in poor health, my past loyalty counts for nothing. Why should it be different for footballers and Colo. Appreciate what he has done for us in the past by all means, but if he walks out on us now, call a spade a spade. He'd be leaving us in the s*** and deserves no respect Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
