midds Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 according to statement coming out of Tynecastle. Been on the cards for a while now by the sound of things. Quick question - if he's now a free agent, can we sign him and should we sign him? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 33years old? Only as a short term fix until the end of the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 Can't see why we couldn't. Not sure if we should sign him but if he is the same level as more in terms of ability then yeah it wouldnt be bad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 You can garuentee that he was on very small wages at Hearts. I see no reason why we shouldn't get him on a month to month contract of at least give him a trail. He was also their captain we could do wit ha bit of experiance.

Optimistic Nut Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 If he's now a Free Agent, get him in now until the end of the season, especially with Moore & Bramble injured. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 He's now definitely a Free Agent. In that case, get him in. We need cover now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cajun Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 Any chance he can play Right Back? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinmk Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 Any chance he can play Right Back? definately not, hes not the quickest since hes 32. Good player though, for a free transfer and low wages i wouldnt turn up my nose at him until the end of season. I think he will be a very good assistant/manager when he retires also.

Ashley17 Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 If we sign him now he can't play till Jan 1st, like Keane and Celtic if you remember Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest thepigofbishop Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 rather we gave a youngster a chance rather than signing a past it centre half playing in a poor poor league. Remember Caldwell looks like a world beater up there and that lad was shocking. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

geordie2000 Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 If we sign him now he can't play till Jan 1st, like Keane and Celtic if you remember Keane was injured when he signed for Celtic, that was the reason he didn't play until jan 1st.

toontownman Posted December 10, 2006 Share Posted December 10, 2006 Depends on how they have severed his contract and if there are any clauses. If he is un-attached then im sure we are allowed to play him. Might well be a good guy to have around the club as cover, whether he could handle the premiership this late in his career though is debatable.

jackyboy Posted December 10, 2006 Share Posted December 10, 2006 He'd be at least as good as Moore, probably better. Quite strong in the air and in the tackle. Worth taking on until the end of the season to see how he shapes up Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
iklgizmo Posted December 10, 2006 Share Posted December 10, 2006 has he been linked to anyone? I would have thought there would have been quite a lot v speculation but i havent heard anything Could he play in europe? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted December 10, 2006 Share Posted December 10, 2006 has he been linked to anyone? I would have thought there would have been quite a lot v speculation but i havent heard anything Could he play in europe? Read an article on Toontastic saying 5 clubs were interested but it didn't say who, also said he couldn't play until January the first so I assume although he has left the club he is still getting paid until then.
