davenportram Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 True, but my point is that all six were signed and all are now deemed as not good enough, which throws a question about NC's ability to pick out a good un! Or it shows his ability to pick a player good enough to keep us up on a budget but they haven't developed enough to be part of the improving squad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Animal is a Ram Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 I imagine they'll just be released towards the start of preseason if they aren't sold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodruffs Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Tyson will be a nice saving on wages Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inter politics Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 There wouldn't have to be a fee for Tyson, just need a club to come in offering a deal that he will accept without us having to release him and pay him off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodruffs Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 That's true but its going to be expensive for someone if for example he is still contracted to Derby for half a million quid in wages - someone's going to have to commit to paying him at least that (but possibly over a longer period). He's going to want a long contract given his age and appearances / injury ratio. Summary - we'll probably end up paying him off in January 2014.

eranio20 Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 We didn't spend months on end chasing Tyson, was a free transfer so hardly a big risk or a disaster. Dunno how much he'd be on wage wise, but he did more than Maguire; chased for months, paid Aberdeen a hefty amount of compensation and then farmed out on loan to the most skint club in the Country in Portsmouth six months later. If Tyson gets tarred with the worse signing tag, then Maguire and Porter deserve a mention too. Although the latter wasn't to bad when fit. Hope these players find clubs soon, reckon alot determines on them leaving for incomings deals occurring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronnieronalde Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 I'd have to say Nathan has been the biggest disappointment for me, out of all of the "mistake" signings. Martin, Croft, Maguire, Tyson. When we signed him, he had a real buzz about him. He was coming to prove a point, he wanted to play through the middle and we put a lot of faith in him being able to play more than he has. To be our goal scoring centre forward. The truth is, apart from a few 45 minute spells he hasn't really justified any kind of outlay for him. I like him as a lad, he comes across as very honest, but it definitely hasn't worked out for him or for us. I don't think it's fair or right to include Sammon in that group. I do think he was over priced at 1.2m but that's not his fault. He's not a mistake, he's just expensive, so far. He played a major part in our season last year. Of course 8 goals is not a great return for 1.2m but he's played a lot of football for us, he's never injured or crying off, he's played some lovely stuff in 45 minutes spells and at times has been the stand out player on the pitch, from either side. He puts an incredible shift in and never shirks. He earns his money. I don't think Conor Sammon is a mistake at all. I think he's going to have to have a strong character if he's going to succeed at this level, cos he takes some incredible stick, I just fancy he's going to have a storming season.

SuperSheep Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 After hearing that Kilmarnock will move for Tyson if we pay of his contract, I give up and vow to the mighty conor sammon that I will never look at a rumour website again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stedcfc Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Tyson was injured in the Friendly against Villa after he signed. He's had injury problems. Cloughie was lauding him when he signed him and when he did get fit he scored against Sheff Wed 1st game in the season just gone and soon after was dropped. Made a few sub appearances and was sent on loan to Millwall and got injured for them. Could he still do a job for us if given a chance who knows but he's the same player he was when Cloughie signed him. Has he had a fair go with us. Theo is another Cloughie liked him now he doesn't want him why ? Same with Bailey. I'd say both Theo and Bailey were bought o do a job and did it. Now we're moving on to better players. Not everybody is bought with the intention of playing for the club for 5 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
