Wray confirms Misun yet to sign Town contract
           


  MILAN Misun's future at Swindon Town is in the dark after it was confirmed that the defender has never been under contract at the club, despite reportedly signing a two-and-a-half year deal back in
  January.

This is all very bizarre.

Hahaha brilliant

He'll never play a game for us ::)

End of Misun then!

When was the start?

He must have been under some sort of contract though....WTF? ???

Unless he signed one of those pre-contract agreements so that he agrees to sign when his contract at Celtic expired.

phantom signing.  how utterly strange.

wouldn't be surprised if there is no injury.

It feels like Swindon are reverting to bad old ways,theres something a bit Diamadis about this and theres also something a bit odd about the relationship with Elite Agents.We've gone from a club that refuses to pay agents to one that does all its transfer buisness through one.(thats if their Twitter feed is to be believed)

I'm actually very cautious about this Elite thing. They come across so unprofessional, it's as if they're a parody account.

They are simply just offering players to DiCanios actual agent Phil Spencer. It has always happened just now twitter allows us to see it

Not convinced about that. This is what their Twitter said:

Q: What role do you play as agent if a player #stfc target isn't on your books?
A: We are employed by club to neg on there behalf.

Don't you think they come over a bit amateurish?

hA hA!!

What an absolute farce. I assume we have never actually been paying him then?

What is elites twitter account?

Wouldn't read to much into that though sam.Nearly every club have their own agents who act for them

Milan Misun doesn't exist he is like Santa Claus...but the differance is Santa pulls on a red kit at least once a year

I was 27 when I first realised Milan didn't exist

Cheers

I can't really see what is wrong about it. But then I don't really know how it all works anyway.

Just certain things they come out with. Cringe.

If Diamandis had tried this one we'd have publicly crucified him on the forums!

I wish they'd stop soapy tit wank'ing

Cant believe there is a Swindon fan asking them if there is any chance of Leon Knight coming here

"shame he could be the goalscorer we have missed since Austin left"

And they agreed with him..WTF

Yes and he's not the first to have mentioned Knight.

I'd thank Misun for his time and wish him well in his future career

I wish Diamandis (and in fact Bob Holt) were on Twitter... I would love an insight into Mikes life....

He's a cunt - what else do you need to know?

This is odd as the article claims we paid a fee and the only quote we have from Wray is that Misun has not signed a contract, so who is actually paying his wages at the moment, is he only a week to week deal until he can prove his fitness, have we paid Celtic any money for him, what was the deal with Celtic I think Wray needs to provide some answers on this and on using Elite Agents to recruit players - we supposedly have a scouting network for this type of thing

yeah i heard we have around 15-20 scouts

I think scouts and agents do quite different jobs.

So do Elite agents have any link with Di Canio?

I assume not, and they are just an agency who try to push players in the normal way, and that they may represent one or two of our targets.

Agents do a selling job.
Scouts do a bob-a-job.

I'm here all week. Unfortunately.

yeah

scouts build tents and set fire to stuff

I think they are his agent as well.

That changes things a bit then.

Scouts spend all their time playing with their woggles.

It makes it worse surely?

conflict of interests,its probably harmless but seems a bit questionable to me.

What a hullabaloo

Yes, that's what I meant. Wasn't too concerned, now T*dd memories are flooding back.

Scouts - Like "Which?" will give you a report on whats on the market and how good it is, take it or leave it

Agent - Like "Money Supermarket" will give you information on whats there, tell you how much you will expect to pay and try and get you to buy it so they get their commision

It's a conflict of interests. The agent doesn't care how good his player is or about the club who is buying him, he just wants his player to move so he gets x % commision etc.

Dear me.

You could say that about any agent.

Surely it's up to the manager/club whether or not we sign them.

That's what I'm hoping for, however this agent represents Di Canio aswell which is why I'm a bit cautious on the whole thing.

Let's not forget that Di Canio's reputation is on the line here as well.

Unlike with Colin Todd, Di Canio has to show that he can do the job. That's what he is here for.

Bear Grylls is Chief Scout. Does that mean he goes to a lot of football matches?

So what exactly does Ken Ryder do surely the job of chief scout is to find players and to recomend them and then it is down to the manager to decide if the player fits into what he wants.

The job of agents is to push their clients hoping they get a move and then getting a % of their signing on fee, isn't their a rule though that agents are not allowed to represent player and club

gotta feeling this whole Misun malarky is Wrays way of telling us Misun doesnt want to stay

Wray has no reason to lie though, right? Especially if Misun doesn't want to stay.

This is dumb... They lied!

I shouldn't be bothered. Can they clarify that Di Canio has signed?  ::)

The way I read it, it was Wray's way of saying we bought a crock, but the signing didn't go through because his legs fell off.

It could do with a bit of clarification though, i.e. did we pay Celtic any money and if so will we be looking at getting it back.

Its all a bit odd. Christian Roberts injury odd, no I'm not suggesting Misun is a pissed un!

Official site suggests that Celtic released him prior to "signing".

Hmm yes, bit vague but it does say "shortly after leaving".

I heard he cut his plaster cast off himself.

That is a fantastic word.

Also a small town in South New Zealand i believe.

I know where I'm going on holiday next. It's worth it just for the photo standing next to the sign.

This really isn't as unusal as some are making out. They recomed players scouts end up going to watch these players. The board can't win they are slagged of for not using agents(much) now they are getting stick for using them.

I think it is more of a case of these Elite agents seem to be doing the player search - and that idiot on twitter keeping everyone 'updated'

That's always been the case though. Agents recomend players then the scouts go watch them

I couldn't give a monkeys as long as we get the players we need.

My thoughts too.

Isn't Nicky Forester that cunt that always scores against us?

Nicky Forster is no idea who Nicky Forester is  :D

I hope we don't sign Nicky Forster, I can't say his name to save my life. My mouth knows it's 'Forster' but my brain says, 'Fuck off, its Foster! Do what I say!' and it comes out as Foster.

If we sign him I'll have to have speach therapy our something.

I'm goling to boycott the club if he signs for us. His surname starts in F so he's a fascist. Even if you take OSTs take on his surname it still starts with an F. If I look at his usual Town End name then I won't boycott the club as he'd be a Communist and they're alright aren't they?

What's all this Nicky Forster business about?

He's applied for the Hayes & Yeading United job...

Please god, make this happen.
