Faddy to leave

[numpty13]

I think we knew. The applause as he left the field at the final home game seemed to me to be more sustained and heartfelt even than usual.
'Here comes McFadden' yelled commentator Rob Maclean during a Scotland game. We know what he meant.

Indeed we did. Crying shame he never got to shout it at a World Cup or the Euros.

Agree with everyone here. How long til we see the first thread on here entitled 'James McFadden' with speculation whether we will be signing him? Good luck Faddy

I think McFadden one of the most exciting players to watch recent years for club and country. His return was a surprise after a long 'injury' absence and came as a surprise to many. However, it came at a high cost and IMO season 2013/14 was financial drain as often absent thru injury .. we saw the McFadden we remembered in glimpses. With benefit of hindsight perhaps should not have retained his services for a second year and used his wage to attract or retain a play, i.e. Higginbotham. I prefer to remember him first time around as a player of exceptional quality.
