    Lads clearly got talent....but looks like its either attitude or isnt a team player so where do you fit him in, maybe a bit of both.

    He might be at last chance saloon next couple of months here to save his career, needs to impress or clearly we wont activate the extra year

    After that write up I can’t see a single reason why we would want him anywhere near our club. Sounds like a total waste of space.

    The byline is a little bit naughty - "hooked in a reserve game" is a bit harsh. He played 60 mins as planned to improve his fitness

    I was thinking that, it mentions him being "hooked" and as you say he was out there for fitness and by match reports gave a decent showing.

    His attitude might be a problem, he might not have what it takes to make it but he hasn't had a chance here yet!

    Yeah theyve just used it as an excuse to write about his demise since having a successful time at Celtic.

    He must have pissed someone off, it’s a hatchet job that article.
    He gets the same chance as anyone else on arriving at the club I wouldn’t take any notice of that article personally.

    He dented their pride by not wanting to stay with them

    I don't think anyone would, he proved himself to be unfit for purpose ...

    ... this lad hasn't had the opportunity to do that yet.

    It's a totally different situation.

    So you would be happy with Jack if all that happened while he was with other clubs?
