Wonder if he is still on our radar. Whatever the reasoning is behind him failing a m**ical, he might be better off trying one of ours. McGeehan passed one with a broken leg. Be interesting to see how Motherwell play this one now. If we jump in with a lower offer than we previously offered they may feel its the time to cash in on him.
It sounds like either he and/or his agent are a pain in the arse, might be worth avoiding in all honesty.
Reading up on things. It looks like Celtic identified a problem which would require immediate surgery. Therefore gone back to Motherwell with revised transfer terms so Motherwell pulled the plug. Could be way off the mark but it seems Celtic were trying to pull a fast one to get the fee lower. I mean surely Motherwell would've picked up if there's an issue that needs immediate surgery.
He's got to have preventative surgery. Owt could happen there. It could end up like Demba Ba situation a few years back where nobody would gamble on him because of the stigma of a failed medical.
It would be interesting to find out why this surgery is needed. If the club still fancy the lad, I wouldn't mind our medical staff to assess him. Might be another one of these scenarios a few year back where wasn't it Boyd who failed a medical at Forest then went and had a stormer at Hull? or visa versa.
We've signed plenty of players in the past who have come to us "injured". Wonder if the pot on his leg was a bit of a giveaway?
Just been confirmed by Motherwell he's going to need surgery so I cant see us going back in for him. But regardless he's still in better condition than some of our previous signing's.
By some accounts it sounds like his knee was ready to explode which is why he's gone immediately into surgery and will start rehab after.
Chuff me things have really changed at Oakwell...days previously he'd have been signed just because he needed surgery lol
Daily Record reporting that it's his knee. He needs a minor operation apparently. His agent is moaning about it. Could well be a classic case of kneemonia. https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport...all-medical-process-explained-celtic-17263888
Reading today that the London Police Commisioner had advanced several theories as to why there are stabbings and unsolved crimes in the capital. She cites two as being the lack of funds to put bobbies on the streets and an extremely poor criminal justice system. Could well be a classic case of dicktheoria.
