JK Will not sing for Fife as he has publicly stated he will not "just" be a player again, Suggesting he is only interested in a coaching or player coach role. Personally I cannot see him staying in the UK I think he meant he would not just be a player again as in he won't go from coach to player at Braehead. I think we would all like him here, but I can't see it although I do believe we will get that 11th import. "Krestanovich said: "The bottom line of the whole thing is that Neil wanted to bring in a new coach and for me to step down and continue as a player." "Krestanovich insists the whole experience hasn't soured him from coaching again in the future, but he plans to leave it for a few years at least."

No he said he just wouldn't be a Clan player again, suggesting that he wasn't willing to be just a player but wanted to still be player/coach for them.
I am surprised he stayed that long with them considering how long it appears his decisions have been undermined and then for this to happen behind his back. Would anybody want to be coach under those circumstances?
Its no wonder they have had difficulty getting players to come and stay with them

he could be the diffrence in making our season memorable for the right reasons. Tried and tested a real work horse wears his heart on his sleeve and cares. The two recent games against us he was double and trebile shifting and has a hockey brain. Clans downfall this season was quality of their D and interfearance from above,the latest intervention being the straw that broke the camels back,that tells you he is a proud man, ok he let Simms interview him to quick after a defeat and he let himself down. Hope Bobby C gives Todd his number.....dream on eh, and Captain Kirk no smart comments the Clingons are watching you!!

Flyers should be trying to break the bank to get him. I think he'd love it here to be honest, what a signing that would be.
Caisy, JK, Bobby, PItts and Hoggy that's pretty darn decent

I don't want the Flyers to "break the bank" for any player.

to do this they would have to be pro active and quick i reckon if they have a chance of getting him, the current flyers management are too laid back to even make a move for him.
other elite teams sign players in hours or days. flyers average is about 5 weeks.

Even if we did sign him. He couldn't play until his 2 weeks notice from Braehead were up. I imagine they would also be up in arms about the "gentleman's" agreement which states that a player leaving a club (not cut) in the EIHL, can't play for another club that season.

They certainly would be up in arms about this non-existent "gentlemans agreement" and they would be wanting a player in return from us but that shows how naive they are at Clan in thinking this would hold any water on any level at all.
This supposed "gentlemans agreement" about players moving between clubs has as much relevance as the "gentlemans agreement" about the supposed wage cap and we all know how well that works

Gentlemans Agreement JK constantley undermined from above. He left because he got a vote of no confidence from above bringing in a Head Coach. They should have waited to the end of the season to do this, instead they have personally humiliated him in public.

The management have humiliated Krestanovich and his signings all season.
Maunu, the farce that was Limonell, Tuma, the releasing of Campbell and Chaumont, the signing of Miller.
The first two Krestanovich decisions which never worked out showing poor judgement on his choice of players.
The last five decisions were also forced on him from above, again questioning his judgement. There is no way that the Miller signing was a Krestanovich decision especially with the Limonell thing right before it

Assuming he signed his contract as player coach,Clan are in breach by bringing in a head coach effectivley releaving JK of his authority/duties, saying he wants to leave within two weeks is a CLAN PR stunt, Elite Prospects 18 January he is registered as available at present.

Wouldn't think he can sign until after 2 weeks notice anyway. Also meant to be gentlemans agreement (stretched by shields) so technically shouldn't be able to sign for another eihl team

If a players gassed then they can sign elsewhere. If they invoke their own 2 week notice they aren't meant to be signed elsewhere in the league
