Is Mark Brown set to leave?

[RiG]

He's already admitted he talked to you  :016:

[RiG]

Also (DaveDargo reminded me) - maybe if CC didn't keep going about us being a small club in his interviews then he might be able to convince players (and fans) that Falkirk aren't bigger than we are (for some).

He has come across as somewhat hypocritical after all this.

[Harry Chibber]

Broonie Safe???

[Joe DiMaggio]

Think if Brown did go it would be on a pre contarct and he'd be here till the end of the season anyway. So doesnt really change anything :007:

[Scarlet Pimple]

All of this is a bit unsettling. Should get it settled .

Moving to Falkirk will not in my opinion greatly improve his International ambitions. Falkirk under John Hughes are coming on but all it takes is the loss of one player (e.g. Latapy) and the team turns downhill. It's not the location of Inverness that affects the situation it's just that the big nobs down the South will not give credibility to Inverness after they tried so hard to keep them out of the SPL. Aye that's it! :023:

If ICT improve his remuneration too much they risk destroying their credibility of a club that  treats all players on the team as equals as far as pay is concerned.

And Dunco it's not true  about the J.Calder comparison..--I have it on record that  Mark Brown sat on the crossbar once waiting for the ball to come near him... :015:--but he fell off whereas Jim Calder didnae...

[caleyboy]

Sorry SP but I just do not believe that ALL players are treated the same as far as pay is concerned - no matter who tells us so!

[RiG]

I wouldn't mind if he did sign a pre contract with Falkirk provided it could have been kept out of the news. That way we could have no doubts about his commitment to ICT.

Look at Wyness when he signed a pre contract at Hearts. If I mind right news of the deal never came out until the end of the season so no one could doubt Denzils commitment to the club. Shame a similar thing couldn't happen here.

[Kingsmills]

Denzil was fully committed all right but it was common knowlege at the time that he'd committed himself to Hearts.

[RiG]

Never anything official though it was all specualtion and he always downplayed it and got on with the job  :003:

[+CaleyD]

And it's all just speculation with Mark Brown at the moment - what's the difference?

[RiG]

He's admitted he has talked to Falkirk.

[+CaleyD]

And Wyness/The Club had admitted that Wyness had talked to Hearts at the time.

[RiG]

I didn't think they ever did to be honest  :confused02:

Oh well...

[Guest kingkojak]

falkirk have signed a new keeper - kasper schmeichel (son of peter)!! 

surely this means they arent interested in oor broonie anymore....

[+L_G]

They have only signed him until the end of the season though.  that worries me a bit as they could still get Mark Brown on a pre contract.  Can't see it though.  Falkirk is no step up.  Can't believe that they could offer him that much more than us that would make it worth relocating for.  He has bought a house here and seems to quite like living here.  That has to be a major factor.  He had to speak to Falkirk to let ICT know that he is prepared to move if the money is right.  That then gives them a chance to improve their offer to keep him.  I think this is all hypothetical really and I suspect we might manage to keep him (unless a bigger club comes in with an offer he really can't refuse)

[dunco]

we are going to be making an improved contract for brown this week so i can see if he does not take the contract he will not get a improved offer on that one from us and may will leave.

[+CaleyD]

May can leave if she likes, didn't rate her much anyway  :004:

That deal is until the end of the season when Broonie could come in for them...

[Guest 1MORESEASONBLACK]

I hear the Arabs have signed a new striker from Hartlepool.  The rest of the SPL will be quaking at the news!  :015:

.................and we,ve signed marcus patawatshisface (really ambitious)

[Guest MIDGE55]

Aiming high again!  :001:

[Kind of Blue]

So Mildge55, what do you suggest we should have aimed for, how about  Anthony Stokes.  I'm sure there's a spare £2m washing about and we could have matched the wages on offer - yeah right...

[Johnboy]

.................and we,ve signed marcus patawatshisface (really ambitious)

[kencar]

Story in the paper today that we have offered Mark an improved 2 year deal that pays more than Falkirk and would make him the highest paid player in the clubs history  :010:

[RiG]

What paper?
