MDV on his way back as well - could have done without his wages/success ratio!

I suppose we have to trust RK on the Tiatto deal, obviously sees him as backup? but i cannot see MDV figuring in plans - takes up salary we could use for getting someone else on loan or freebie

Which bit, Tiatto or MDV 
What we have to bear in mind is what the figures are that constitute our reduced terms offer.
For instance if Danny is currently earning say 5k and we have offered 2k, he may feel the offer to be derisory and move elsewhere. However maybe RK feels for that the money on offer to Tiatto that he would be hard pressed to bring somebody in to replace him for similar terms.
As for MDV, lets hope Butcher goes to Sydney and Motherwell replace him with Levein, and you can be sure that we will see the last of De Vries.

Tiatto. Three goals in nine games is actually quite a good return for MDV, which surprised me as I was sure for some reason that he'd not done very well out there. Offering Tiatto a new contract seems to just spell out what next season is going to be for us, another boring, depressing mid-table contest. When he's not injured or suspended, he's not even a very good player. I guess I knew we weren't going to have any money to spend, but I'd hoped that maybe Kelly would work some magic with some free transfers or something...

Personally I think this a good move by RK; although he isn't the greatest of players, what is in his favour is he can play a number of positions and is committed (albeit over the top at times), he also took some very good corners in the last few games he's played (something which Williams seems unable to do!). Good move IMO and he still might yet decide against the new terms offered (for those that are opposed to him staying on).

Leicester City are set to make defender Paddy McCarthy club captain for next season.
The Irish ace had an excellent run of form when he was given the armband towards the close of this season, and Rob Kelly appears to have been suitably impressed.

He is reckless, but maybe RK believes he can work on that, also he is extremely versatile offering cover in 3 positions, and if we can secure his services than maybe RK feels for what we are paying we will get value for money.
I think RK has shown in the last 3 to 4 months what he can achieve with players who are failing to play to their potential, so who is to say he cant do the same with Tiatto, he obviously feels he is a player worth keeping hold of. Lets back his judgement and draw our conclusions from Tiatto's performances next season.

Reading between the lines of this article I believe it has been released with the intention of forcing the issue as to whether Tiatto will sign or not.He was probably made an offer before he left the country and the club have asked to be kept up to date with his thought process in order that they can make alternative plans should he not sign.Sounds to me like we the club havn't heard a thing from the player as originaaly agreed so have made a conscious decision to yesterday the news about the captaincy plans for McCarthy yesterday to see if that triggered a response. Its seems more than just a co-incidence to me that the following day i.e. today we get an article about Tiatto from the club.
