    I think when you score first, especially if you do it early, it has an adverse effect because players can say, 'job done'. We knew that was far from the case.

    I was privy to all the information in terms of the transfer deal and the offer made to the player by Leicester City. He turned it down. He was 100 per cent prepared to stay at Dundee, and take a reduction in wage. Not only were they offering him a considerable amount more than what he was contracted to be paid here, he was actually going to reduce it. In effect, he was going to pay us to play for us!
