Seen enough of him in Scotland to suggest he aint a PL player. The embarrassing cheating antics don't do anything to elevate his reputation either. Just think we'll see another loan in the Summer. To where, heaven knows?
A fair question, but that depends on if we're willing to sell him for £5m and take that considerable loss this summer.I don't see us trying to push the PSR limits in the Summer though, we'll have survived our potential issues and be trying to break even (although that might be the rules anyway). Obviously is someone will give us £2m for a 12 months loan and pay all his wages, then we potentially gain a bit, but is anyone paying a £2m loan fee for a player valued at £5m?
Yes, fair enough. If someone will cover £3m for his wages, pay a £2m for a loan fee and still offer to buy him for £10m in Summer 2025 then I'm all ears!A fair question, but that depends on if we're willing to sell him for £5m and take that considerable loss this summer.
From club's POV, a loan fee of £2m with an option to buy for £10m is more attractive than taking a loss.
Taking a loss for the sake of getting him off the books just seems unnecessary to me, but I suppose we'll see what they decide to do.
Like a fish out of water!Hooked. He was rotten.
Biggest waste of money since the KLF burned a million quid live on tv
I have a wide-brimmed white sun hat, a la Stuart Broad, with the signatures of the Warwikshire cricket team from the 90's, Ashley Giles, Dougie Brown, Brian Lara etc. From a charity cricket match.you think we can afford to write off a £35n player that easily?
Would you give it away?I have a wide-brimmed white sun hat, a la Stuart Broad, with the signatures of the Warwikshire cricket team from the 90's, Ashley Giles, Dougie Brown, Brian Lara etc. From a charity cricket match.
I value it at £1m and hate to think that one day when I sell it I'm going to have to take a hit on that value.
Brian Lara might be the athlete whose mastery I most admire. I think it was here they had a video of him in australia batting against simulated pitches from modern bowlers (machine). Even in his 50s you would swear he could go for 100 in a test match.I have a wide-brimmed white sun hat, a la Stuart Broad, with the signatures of the Warwikshire cricket team from the 90's, Ashley Giles, Dougie Brown, Brian Lara etc. From a charity cricket match.

Lol sure we will have clubs interestedor sell them for under book value, and lose money still.
Indont think either has a future, but it’s not as simple as selling a player for the hundredth time.
Shame he couldn’t do that for us
Well, it's a bit ****, doesn't suit the rest of my clothing and it does keep topling over.Would you give it away?
No it doesn't. There's another 6 league games (5 post-split) plus Cup games left.Their season ends in a few weeks.

Fabio is being slagged rotten by both sides of the Uglies after today's game. I didn't watch any of it, so can't comment, but he's done well to thoroughly **** off both the Sellick and Sevco fans

I saw a bit of Scotsport earlier and it is funny to see a Blue Nose behind the goal clearly gesturing to Fabio to get up and stop diving ......... Seconds before John Beaton is told by Nick Walsh to go and have a look at the screen.
Do you support Celtic by any chance?

People just don't realise how much effort it takes to throw yourself to the ground that often.
If Fabio had dived in front of Muscat he would have got his head kicked in.That's a serious point, it takes practice and pre-meditation.....so there is an intent to cheat.
I feel exactly the same way about him as I did when Dougie Freedman played for us, he made me feel dirty just watching him and I was happy when we sold him after 1 season, top goalscorer or not.
* we won a competition once to attend as matchball sponsor in a game v Norwich, which meant we got to choose the MOM.
Freedman scored a hat trick in a 5.0 win, and we gave the MOM to Kevin Muscat .
Muscat had to come up to the box in his kit and socks, looking totally bemused.
I doDo you support Celtic by any chance?
If Fabio had dived in front of Muscat he would have got his head kicked in.
No, he touches the ball, but Fabio is still going to run onto the ball after that and then he catches him. So the idea that he 'plays the ball' and therefore it isn't a penalty is wrong. The idea that the contact is minimal and Fabio throws himself to the floor is completely correct though.

It was a good game for the neutral.I do
Podence and Hwang at least contributed a little to the team. Silva hasn't got anything about him that says he's worth persevering with.That is ****ing embarrassing!!!!!!
He should ashamed of himself! That is not how a professional sportsman should behave.
Looks more like a toddler having a fit in Asda because their parents won’t let them have a new toy…..
We got annoyed by podence and currently by Hwang when they rolled/roll around, but that is on a whole new level.
I think there are two ways to look at the finances , ffp numbers and real money.A fair question, but that depends on if we're willing to sell him for £5m and take that considerable loss this summer.

I broke my tib and fib playing football and when it happened I never reacted like that.

Embarrassing.
He was an embarrassment yesterday, total disgrace.
Just ain’t suited to UK football is he. Portugal and Spain where the game is more adaptable to his style of play. Probably feel more at home.Have to credit the majority of Rangers fans who are rightly calling him out for his antics yesterday.
I also don't understand why he's doing it though. He was never that bad for us, was he? He would throw himself down a bit, but not to this degree, and the rest of the Rangers team aren't as bad as him, so I can't say it's coming from them.
From his hugging the Ipswich players to crying at Sheffield United and all those theatrics yesterday, I think emotionally and mentally Silva is nowhere near where he needs to be.
He won the penalty, which I don't care what anyone says, whether hes going down before is touched is completely irrelevant, is an absolute stone wall penalty.Have to credit the majority of Rangers fans who are rightly calling him out for his antics yesterday.
