Devonte Redmond signing going to tribunal
 

Apologies if it's been posted anywhere else, but I hadn't realised the Redmond signing was due before a tribunal.

I only noticed as it's stated in the most recent board minutes that the hearing was supposed to be held recently but has been postponed.

Hoping we get a better return on investment than we've had so far if we do have to pay a fee for him.

It's one of those signings I was quite excited about at the time.

Can we get our money back under the trade description act?

Re: Devonte Redmond signing going to tribunal
 

The man who wanted him has left the club as well .

Re: Devonte Redmond signing going to tribunal
 

Is this the reason why he has not been playing as much?

I wouldn't have thought the amount of appearances he's made would have any impact on the compensation due as surely it's based on his value at the time of the sale? Could be wrong though.

Shrewd move that.
Look, he isn't that good, hardly plays. Not worth anything, we were shafted m'lud.

We pay a lower fee.

Re: Devonte Redmond signing going to tribunal
 

Cant we just return him, was there not a cooling off period?

I have to agree that I was also excited and agree that he has been very disappointing.

Re: Devonte Redmond signing going to tribunal
 

I still believe there's a good player in there somewhere but he hasn't been good enough for us so far. Only seen brief glimpses of what he can do.

Probably right player, wrong system.
As per usual.

I'm fairly confident he'll have a good career at a higher level. I'm also fairly confident that he won't achieve that here, like so many other players who fail here but do reasonably well after they leave.

Too many player have fallen into that bracket here for it to be coincidence.

Re: Devonte Redmond signing going to tribunal
 

I cant see how Salford can argue they have developed him much though - wasn't he only there for 6 months???

I would be surprised if it is more than £10k

They got promoted? Integral part of the team?
I'm sure the class of 92 are putting their own spin on it right now, and everyone will believe them, the darlings.

:D;)

Pretty much my feelings too. He needs to develop a bit more as at present he does not influence games enough (if at all!)

I said this about Akil Wright a few seasons ago and look how that turned out...

Re: Devonte Redmond signing going to tribunal
 

With some decent coaching he might improve, unfortunately ....

Re: Devonte Redmond signing going to tribunal
 

Cant we just let them have him back

Spoke to a well known ex footballer and manager on Monday. He was pretty sure where the problem was with us, and he also commented how negative a certain person at the club was.

Re: Devonte Redmond signing going to tribunal
 

Tell us more Dixie

Re: Devonte Redmond signing going to tribunal
 

Without doubt there is a player there.

Needs some confidence and playing in his right position and he’ll come good

Re: Devonte Redmond signing going to tribunal
 

He has the work rate of Dom Vose and a tenth of the ability.

Re: Devonte Redmond signing going to tribunal
 

hes the marquee signing, and plays like he couldnt give a shit,mind you if he thinks Mctominey of Utd is the hardest player hes faced, god help him

Can only see him going one way during Keatesball. He'll be off in January.

You Know What , that seems to be the case with a lot of our signings,We pick up players with good reputations and turn them into Mr. Useless :confused: Wonder if its something to do with the coaching :(

Re: Devonte Redmond signing going to tribunal
 

Don't write him off just yet. He has ability but lacks application when it gets physical.

What I've seen of him for a young lad he seems to lack fitness and interest, coming from a big club like United to a struggling non-league club has probably hit his confidence to.

This is exactly how I see it JND - blaming tactics or coaching for a complete lack of interest IMO is stretching a point. We can only hope that the new regime are able to tap into the alleged skillset and use it.

Re: Devonte Redmond signing going to tribunal
 

Guarantee after he eventually gets loaded off by us he goes on to have a decent Football League career.

Sell him, spares or repair - no wonder Salford got rid.

If we have to pay a fee for him it just takes the biscuit - how long was remaining on his contract at Salford before he signed for us ?

Be surprised if it is as much as that! Signed for Salford on 31st January so only been there for 4 months of the season.

Salford need every penny. Obviously struggling financially. ;)

Re: Devonte Redmond signing going to tribunal
 

I am sure Salford will try and squeeze as much money as possible, at least that stupid tweet would of helped things.

He was quite a “cheeky” signing by the looks of it!

If they ‘got rid’ there wouldn’t be a need for a tribunal. It’s because they offered him a contract that we’re in this position.

I agree with this on the times I have seen him.. he actually makes some good off the ball runs but I’m not sure he’ll ever get picked out playing the way we do.

But agree he needs to do more as do pretty much every single player in that squad !!

Re: Devonte Redmond signing going to tribunal
 

We could make out a good case for Salford paying us for signing him !
He can be half decent if there is no opposition player within 10 ft of him. He definitely doesn’t do physical.

14 days by law, can only return now if faulty and proven that the goods were never fit for purpose.
