Guest Bluenose80 Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 I don't think Beattie would see it that way. He was offered a contract but chose not to accept. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWeeBlueDevil 0 Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 He was offered a contract but chose not to accept. If that was the case, and it might well be, then why was Beattie complaining to the media that CG pulled the plug on the deal? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

UCF2008 0 Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 I just wouldn't have signed a player over 26 or 27. indeed I'd have gone for 22 ish and under. I don't have lists of who's available like super does but specifics aren't important the overall tactic is. Haven't seen any clarificarition on this but if the registration embargo still doesn't stop us from signing (and registering) under 18's, then I think it makes perfect sense to be focussing on senior players to compliment the youths we have and will be able to add to our squad. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheWeeBlueDevil 0 Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 Has Beattie denied that we made him an offer which he declined? I think Beattie said something along the lines of 'Ally wanted to give him a contract but CG pulled the plug on the deal, and notified him the deal was dead by text. The article was post on here a few days ago . 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheWeeBlueDevil 0 Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 McCoist later put out a statement saying that him and Green are singing from the same sheet and wished Beattie well. Sounds like Beattie was a little bit bitter about rejection and tried to stir some shit. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rbr 1,247 Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 I just wouldn't have signed a player over 26 or 27. indeed I'd have gone for 22 ish and under. I don't have lists of who's available like super does but specifics aren't important the overall tactic is. In other words " I havent a clue, cant think of anyone I would have signed in their place but will slag McCoist off anyway " thats basically your position. Same as your statement about playing Mackay instead of Diuof or Weiss when he was only 15 , aye jog on 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
