Genuine question, as my IT knowledge is a bit lacking on this. Genuine question, does he have to be physically in Glasgow to sign ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe not, but he does have to be physically here to play! I was kinda looking forward to seeing him line up against Clyde.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rid Skwerr Posted July 21, 2019 Report Share Posted July 21, 2019 On Sportsound, heading for the game yesterday, I heard them discuss Austin's signing where they talked about his medical being delayed until he had recovered from the effects of the 24 hour flight. That does suggest that he is in Glasgow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
javeajag Posted July 21, 2019 Report Share Posted July 21, 2019 Turns out he flew in from Australia but your not allowed to have a medical till 48 hours after a long haul flight .....hence the delay 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just occurred to me that his Twitter account might be operated by someone on his behalf - it looks like a commercial operation. Presumably in Oz!

Vinnyjag Posted July 22, 2019 Report Share Posted July 22, 2019 Partick Thistle are still hopeful of signing Mitch Austin despite a hitch in his medical, according to a report. The Australian was in Glasgow over the weekend and a deal was expected to be completed. But bruising suffered in his last game at Sydney FC has held the deal up and scans on an ACL injury are also being studied, according to the Evening Times.

Paukea Posted July 22, 2019 Report Share Posted July 22, 2019 Signing expected in next 48 hours. Medical found bruising around his knee and due to him suffering a previous ACL Thistle want his scans inspected by experts in Glasgow looks like Caldwell is trying to sign every crock going de vita Alex Jones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allyo Posted July 22, 2019 Report Share Posted July 22, 2019 We are delaying a signing on the basis of bruising, to ensure there is no ongoing injury, and that means we are signing crocks? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously talking about the 2 already signed smarty pants. De vita looked done in after only 10 minutes on Saturday Austin would be a cracking signing though so let’s hope all is well and it goes ahead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Dan Posted July 22, 2019 Report Share Posted July 22, 2019 Maybe guys recovering from injury are the market that we are currently operating in? Lets hope that most prove to be worthwhile signings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
