Fabricio Coloccini (now retired)

[ponsaelius]

Of course they're bollocks, man

 

Has anyone met this Crammy lass? No. Are we really to believe that if this lass does exist she's happily watch the rich father of her child f*** off to the other side of the world and not go to the press to earn herself a bit of cash?

 

Someone was showing pictures on his phone the other day claiming they were of the lass, chinese whispers on a grand scale  Or there could be truth in it 

 

Either way I find it hard to believe if there was a serious illness the club would not have just came out and said that was the case. Sounds like he can either sort out a sensible fee for someone to buy him or lump it as far as i'm concerned. I know it is a cliché but he gets paid 60odd grand a week ffs.

 

I got told he'd got a 14, 17 and 18 year old lass from Crammy up the duff in the space of about 2 hours the other day. It's bollocks.

 

If he's got 3 different teenage birds from Cramlington up the duff then this really is a serious situation.

 

Particularly if he's done it over the course of 2 hours, seems like really reckless behaviour.

 

Yep. Impressively productive - particularly on the previously acknowledged 'bollocks' - but certainly not the behaviour you'd expect of a husband, parent and role model.

[Superior Acuña]

Does anyone know if we can sue him for his transfer value if refuses to play? Surely not paying him isn't enough as we still lose out. Is there a precedent?

[TheHoob]

I thought I was joking.

 

I thought it was quite obvious like, main reason most of my posts contain far too many smilies is it's too easy for people to take written text the wrong way.

[Miercoles]

The silver lining of his exit is that we won't have to start Jonas any more right?

Not really that similar once you get past the title tbf. Newcastle matched their bid then they asked for more unlike San Lorenzo who seem to have offered a 50p and a curly wurly.

[David Icke - Son of God]

As far as I see it if this is true there are three options for him:

 

1) he pays off his contract, which if estimates regarding his pay are correct would cost north of £12m and we're under no obligation to accept. Unlikely as he probably couldn't afford it anyway.

 

2) he retires, in which case we would hold his registration for the duration of his contract meaning he couldn't play competitive football until he was 35.

 

3) he goes AWOL and tries his luck in the courts. It would be a massive test case with reprocussions for clubs and players the world over and the chances of him winning outright would be slim.

 

We very much hold the power in this situation if he really is adamant about returning to Argentina.

A sizeable transfer budget for us, that. Be thankful.

Footballers / Agents should never ever make threats to rip up contracts.  It's a pathetic demand.

Aye that situation would have probably involved us funding the buy-out of the clause with a signing-on fee etc. SL don't have the cash.

 

Still - it shows he has previous.

[Guest icemanblue]

This is properly shit, like. Of all the fucking players.

[Stuy_O]

women and cash do things to players.

[Willow]

This is all a bit mental but we should never have to rely on a single player so much really. Granted he's the captain and our best player really but we should always have someone else to step in, if anything goes tits up for a player.

 

I don't foresee us getting another CB really so we'll have to struggle with Mike and Saylor, fitness depending.

 

Ugh, just want this window closed now so we can put the rumours to bed, get to work with our quality new additions and hopefully climb the table.

[bhoywhonder]

At this point, clearly precedent is out the f*cking window:

 

‘Colo, you have to stay. The people love you, the city is nice, the club want you. Sometimes it is not about the money you are paid, it is about the love of the people.”

 

Whatevers happened in Cramlington (!) papa coloccini changed his tune pretty sharpish

You've already forgotten about Yanga-Mbiwa?

 

He's shit Marra, haven't picked up a single point since he's joined.

No we just remembered Taylor (can't stay fit) & Williamson (can't play football)

Nah, talks of Article 17 and it seems it doesn't apply to Colo, now.

 

Article 17

 

Article 17 of FIFA's Regulations for the Status and Transfer of Players is entitled "Consequences of Terminating a Contract Without Just Cause", and is the fifth article of Chapter IV, "Maintenance of Contractual Stability between Professionals and Clubs". It outlines the provisions which apply if a contract is terminated without just cause, and the requirement for the party in breach to pay compensation. Specifically, it states that any player who signed a contract before the age of 28 can buy himself out of the contract three years after the deal was signed. If he is 28 or older the time limit is shortened to two years. Article 17 was introduced in December 2004, with effect from 1 July 2005.[12]

 

He too would need to cough up the cash for the remainder of the contract IIRC.
