Quote: Bulliac "To be utterly fair, I don't think he's actually done anything that a court could find 'wrong'. Taking a different view from your mates isn't actionable and (AFAIK) he wasn't legally obliged to accept OK Bulls as his new employer if he didn't want to. He's just found a legal way out of a contract which he clearly didn't want to be in, so from that, I reckon you're dead right and he's unlikely to be coming back.

That said, [iIf[/i he were to decide that maybe he'd been a bit hasty etc etc, and there would be no problems in the dressing room over it, I'd have him back. He was (when fit) in good form and probably wasn't on megabucks and I'd guess it would cost more to replace him with a non-homegrown player. All in all though, I can't really see it happening and expect he'll sign elsewhere before too long.'"


But his reasoning for why he should be allowed out of his contract is that he's in a similar position to the players at Rangers. Which is simply not the case. They argued that their contract being moved to the newco would be detrimental to them and their careers. That was agreed by the courts as they would be expect to take a paycut, have no European football AND be playing in the bottom tier of Scottish football. Given the Bulls are staying in SL then and being allowed to compete in the CC, which is the only other competition the club is eligible for, Kopout's argument becomes more than a little shakey. So, unless OK Bulls have said something along the lines of "You're only going to be getting half your salary under the newco" there's no real comparison between his situation and that of the players who left Rangers.

That's your take on it my friend. All the players had the same option under Tupe but as the other player's contracts were more lucrative and the offers they were given from other clubs were substantially less they were too afraid to resign. He would have left anyway the season after found it unfair to be on half the wage of platy,nas,Sykes,scruton. Move on and don't be so bitter if bulls are such a big club then kopczak is easy to replace.

Fook me, another idiot who claims personal knowledge of all the players' contracts, offers and even personal fears. Don't you get that you just make yourself look infantile, you muppet?

Really? So you have full access to all the wage details of the Bulls players and are happy and willing to put that information out into the public forum?

That's nice of you. It's a breach of the data protection act as that's private information you're throwing about there boy.

Kearney had signed up with hull kr if bulls went bang! How UN loyal is he..only cares about his massive wage.
Id say koppy is prob being offered way over 100k at new club,
No data protection issues when bulls boys 2011 says he knows wages! Bulls employees used to have a habit of spouting off about confidential information! Wages, dirty secrets etc plus some payers especially the gob e Aussies
Like to brag about their wages

Take me to court then! I have the money where my mouth is don't worry about that. I might lend Omar some. Might be worth you writing to the club to ask the players to keep confidential matters to themselves.

The phrase politically correct is in itself politcally incorrect so should be rephrased politically stupid! If you like old type radio comedy/ dramas etc listen to //pumpkinfm.com/ Statistically speaking you have a better chance of getting dead the older you get! Thank god only when you find a religion that passes the truth test!:13554.jpg

I think they are saying take bull boys 2011 to court as he says he knows Kearney, le'strange and pryce's wages.
A good starting point if you want to know the bulls players wages Is the red headed woman with the tramp stamps, when shes bin on the pop. she was at bulls til administrator binned her and the others off.
Also a lot of players are on here being keyboard warriors! icon_beat.gif icon_frustrated.gif eusa_wall.gif a026.gif
