It doesn't matter how much money you're earning, where you're living or who you are with, being homesick as a young man is brutal and can lead to depression. only being at home until you can sort it out in your own head can sort it. At least it did in my day. Correct. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems a bit weird to me that in a club the size of Rangers, in a big city, that high earning young men are fucking off homesick. A player's Dad is sick and he wants to be home with him and suddenly there is something wrong at the club?! Surely everything is right at the club if we're not putting pressure on a young man to play if his head is not in the right place. graeme_4 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FSM 20,892 Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 is homesickness actually a real condition that makes you feel sick? Sounds like a made up illness tbh, like M.E. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least it did in my day. Thats fair enough. If thats the way the guys are feeling then no you cant criticise them I agree, my point was more that you would think a big club like Rangers would have staff in place who were qualified to help with these things and see any vulnerable young guys through it. Have never really gone through homesickness on a stressful level myself no. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was commenting on the homesickness rather than any sick relatives tbf. Of course it is understandable that you would yearn to be with a close relative who is ill.

It's also a couple of months or so since he started getting dropped, so not playing would add to his low mood. Hopefully it's just a rumour though. plumbGER 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMB 14,167 Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Declan John had an issue with a family member last season and was allowed time off from the squad to attend to it. If Katic has a sick father and wanted to return to Croatia I think he would’ve been allowed to do that. If he doesn’t like Scotland and would rather play his football somewhere else I suppose it’s a case of waiting until January and getting him a move. Jake Cooper was the one the manager was after during the summer and we’ve still been scouting him in recent weeks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TopCat 4,511 Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 It's a real pity if true that he is missing home so badly he can't concentrate on his football properly. I really like and rate the guy highly...... hope the club can help solve this problem to the benefit of both the player and the club. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gman36 3,455 Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 These things happen. Be as well to move him on if he would rather be back home. Seems like a good player so as long as we get our money back or a small profit he can go with everyone's best wishes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
