Stevie Aitken's Love Child Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 New manager in place but still the same cryptic messages about Shimmin. All sounded positive a few weeks back when it was reported that he was back in full training, and now this. Other than that, some pretty positive news there. Almost a full squad again, although I imagine that MacFalane, Masterton and Walker wont be risked this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dom_Dom Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 And there was me saying Shimmin might be back soon on another forum. PIE ON FACE ! : ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpmil Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 I don't want to say "I told you so" but I told you so! I don't think we'll ever see Dom in a Morton Strip again. The only thing which disappoints me is that his contract is until June whereas I had thought that it finished in December (more money down the drain)!

Colkitto Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 I also stated we would never see this charlatan in a Morton strip again. The guy is a fraudster and I for one cannot wait to see him gone from Cappielow ! Don't blame me I voted Yes!!!! - We tried to tell you !!!!!

TonInDublin Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Some people on here were very forthright in their condemnation on a few people when we said months ago that Dominic wouldn't play for Morton again. The usual "name your sources" shite. Good to see that the realisation is hitting home. Short of a major turn of events, we have seen the last of Dominic Shimmin in a Morton jersey. Once more, for the record, he is fit to play if selected. He won't be. There is fault on both sides of the argument, and things are at an impasse - probably the best result for all concerned to be honest.

big B Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 If and it is a big if if there is nothing medically wrong with him why do Morton not terminate his contract due to him breaching it. Then again he is probably pulling the wool over the medics eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shimmin1874 Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 i no there is something really wrong here but is it just me who will be happy to see him back playing if he does, he's and absolute solid defender , but if he comes back a few bounce games may be needed for him to get back to grips Fouad Bachirou The Next Claude Makélelé Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BishopTon Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 This is surely clear cut. If he is breaking is contract by not playing then he should be sacked. If he is not going to play, pay him off and get rid. If he has said something then he should have been fined. Why is he still here if he will not play, this is pointless.... the wage may be wasted but we hold on to his registration and send him back to London... The club owe us an explanation here as he clearly the most talented player on the books and its not like we are holding out for a transfer fee, if he is injured then thats the answer, if he refuses to play and is fit, then why cant the club just come out and say it..

If he is putting in a certified "sick note" there is not a lot the Club can do about it. If the Club pay him off he will have quite a few grand in his tail and could find a new Club in January. I would keep him here till the end of the season and make him come to training every day, fit or not. Don't blame me I voted Yes!!!! - We tried to tell you !!!!!

Dom_Dom Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 but wasn't it utterly obvious that something was amiss? Nagging injuries can happen and keep people out of teams. I don't really trust "I heard from a mate", so it stands to reason that I wait for more obvious hints, and they have certainly come from James Grady. : ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would keep him here till the end of the season and make him come to training every day, fit or not. Yes there is. As with any other employer long term sick can allow the club to ask for an independent medical assessment (if they have the option in place). If he is pulling the wool over the clubs eyes this may go some way to allowing his contract to be torn up. Take the chance of a tribunal, if something is being hid the player won't want to expose himself to that. But then again.... We are a MEAN diddy team!!!

The Naitch Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Grady's comment all but confirms (if that was ever needed) that all is not right with regards to Shimmin. Whatever it is, at least it'll all be sorted by the end of the season when Shimmin's contract expires.

Bez Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 I was a big fan of Shimmin when he was playing for us however my patience is wearing thin. I have heard a few stories and the guy sounds like a chancer. What annoys me more is the fact that his monthly wage probably costs the club the income gained from about 100 adults paying £15 at the gate at twice a month.
