* Still let him go for free in the summer?
He signed his current contract in 2020. Were we really giving big wages out then? I’m not so sure.He's one of the "old firm", still here from the days when we opened the wage book.
I don't know, but wouldn't be surprised if he was on a good wack.
He's 29 next month, so might there be more than a few clubs happy to take him on?
Keep him, if he wants to stay
No, but he was at that time seen (by Warnock) as the best player he'd ever managed.....He signed his current contract in 2020. Were we really giving big wages out then? I’m not so sure.
Well we can't ask for a transfer fee if he does leave.View attachment 73982
Paddy McNair skippered a young Northern Ireland side to a credible 1-1 draw in Romania during the opening round of international matches.
Jamie Reid scored just seven minutes into his debut, but the hosts hit back to secure a draw.

Does anyone believe Warnock actually believed that? I’m sure he will have to agree a pay cut to stay but I doubt he’s on the kind of money that means he would need to cut his pay in half.No, but he was at that time seen (by Warnock) as the best player he'd ever managed.....
So I reckon its very feasible that he is being paid more than he is really worth to our squad 4 years later.
Not sure. And I've no idea how truthful he was being when he said it, but I was just really pointing out that 4 years ago when he signed this deal his stock was much higher than it is now.Does anyone believe Warnock actually believed that?

He initially signed in 2018, so to sign a renewed contract in 2020 suggests it was a bigger salary to discourage other clubs and keep him tied to us.He signed his current contract in 2020. Were we really giving big wages out then? I’m not so sure.
