Topic: JCM
41. Author: Indiapar1 Date: Thu 7th May 2026. 22:40 I wouldnt speculate about player salaries. Like everyone else who earns a living the salary is a private matter.It is about the market rate and what someone is willing to pay set against the perceived benefit. The other consideration of course is the amount of tax you will pay on higher salaries based on the tax thresholds in Scotland. Tax thresholds are higher in England so any player moving would be likely to keep more of their money. It may be a consideration if moving South. There also daily travel and accommodation costs to consider. G Wardrope Post Edited (Fri 08 May 10:38) Reply

43. Author: veteraneastender Date: Fri 8th May 2026. 08:28 "Paying that sort of money just about killed us for 5k a week he can fk right off" Indeed - living above our means resulted in the 11th April 2013 mess. Fortunately I`m confident the new administration will bodyswerve a similar cavalier approach. Reply

45. Author: Bandy Date: Fri 8th May 2026. 10:25 I think this thread should be closed. Speculating about player salaries and their perceived `worth` isn`t productive at all. It risks divulging sensitive personal information that isn`t public, nor should it be. No good can come of it. Reply

We`re in the middle of our best season in a decade yet some still feel the need to have a go at one of our best players, based on unsubstantiated Internet crap.

48. Author: DRreturns Date: Fri 8th May 2026. 13:51 Closing a thread about discussing our most valuable player and what we should do to keep him?? It’s an open forum exactly for this type of discussion. In terms of me knowing for a fact come from a friend who works for Livingston and informed me about Robbie Fraser signing for us prior to us announcing it. It’s nothing to do with someone pretending to know something, it’s someone sharing information they’ve been given by a reliable source. I better not mention the salary we offered Martin Boyle before he signed a new deal with Hibs, it would end up with people calling for .net to be closed indefinitely !!!!. I’m here to take over!!

49. Author: Bandy Date: Fri 8th May 2026. 14:18 I didn`t mention anything about people pretending stuff. I said it`s not productive to share unverified personal information in a public forum. In fact there`s laws against doing so. I`m not a lawyer, or data protection expert, so I can`t give the nuance, but we`re definitely in a grey area. I`d rather we`d stay out of it. Reply
50. Author: wee eck Date: Fri 8th May 2026. 14:27 It`s a huge leap from knowing what Livi offered Robbie Fraser to knowing what we`re now offering JCM. And Martin Boyle hasn`t re-signed for Hibs. They didn`t make him an offer. Reply

Your friend could probably do with losing his job in fairness. In my line of work I used to deal with quite a lot of high net worth individuals, many of them professional football players, and knew the sort of money they were on at various levels, even seen some very interesting contracts. Wouldn`t dream of divulging that sort of information on a public forum or even share that sort of information in an informal chat. Totally unprofessional. I agree with this thread, probably this sort of speculation does nothing but harm and would be better off deleted Reply

56. Author: P Date: Fri 8th May 2026. 19:10 Why on earth would someone who works for Livie have the inside track to what Pars are offering players, not like they are going to be in the running considering their position Post Edited (Fri 08 May 19:26) Reply
57. Author: Hoolie Date: Fri 8th May 2026. 20:29 It’s a Forum where we all can talk about the club/plYers. Why would anything get deleted regarding players wages etc as it happens on every forum? And just to mix it up how much of a wage do you think Fraser is on as he was 2k plus bonus a week at Rangers? Mehmet has been stealing his 1.7k a week since signing for us..no wonder he’s happy until his contract expires. Mullen imo is in the 5-7k a week bracket and will be going back down south if we are still in the Championship. Reply
