    It's strange that we have him up at CP meeting with Lawell before we've even agreed a fee. Seems a bit pointless. It could materialize that we agree terms with the boy but can't sort a fee.

    This is such a mess man :56:

    If I’m reading this right he’s not been paid since February or something so thinks he should be able to hand in his notice and move. Administrators are rejecting that and saying he’s still under contract. Could be a problem if we’ve already had talks with him and he’s been photographed with us but still under contract.

    It popped into my head in the gym changing rooms yesterday afternoon and I started howling to myself. A few people were looking at me as if I was on day release.

    He can walk away to a non English club for a small fee because he is on a scholarship contract

    There is nothing Bolton can do about it

    Boltons administrators effectively run the club until they get a seller. All contracts are valid as the assets are mostly players, so as an asset the administrators will undoubtedly sell him to the highest bidder, same as in any footballing situation.

    Seemingly, Connell is contracted to the English League One side as a third-year scholar and therefore cant leave for a slashed price unless his contract is terminated...which as an in demand player it wont be

    Isn't there going to be a TUPE situation, just like the huns? If the company folds, all contracts fold with it. Now, if the administrators can get something they will, but I think if they stall he goes for free...

    He is a promising player and the type of signing we should be going for, bags of potential and cheap with a big resale potential. It always gives me an extra buzz when we sign a Republic of Ireland player, hopefully he don't do a Jack Grealish of Declan Rice though. I believe he can play left back as well as midfield.

    Seemingly the layer and Celts are taking employment law advise on the players situation so watch this space

    Isn't it a breach of contract, on the club's part, if you're not being paid?

    I'd rather stick with the young lads we already have, like that dafty Haribo, I don't want charlton, Bolton, Luton players, fek dat.

    The only good thing about this link was the poster who made the Yankee Candle joke, that was a belter.

    It should be and most likely is, Celtic or the boy himself will probably have looked over his contract and will know if it isn't or not if it is we can just sign him and apply to have him registered as if he is unemployed.

    Maybe be weird trying to register him though, as Bolton will likely still claim they hold his registration but i'd suppose if the boy took evidence to the FA saying theres his contract and it's been broken and he's no longer with them then theres nothing they could do but give it to us.
