Yeah it's a bit rich calling the nix out for trying to get around the rules (though I do believe they thought he was a free agent, if anyone is pulling a swift one its Wee Mac and his agent) when CCM are using this to try and get around a rule that you aren't allowed to pay transfer fees between A league clubs - while not wanting to pay Wee Mac until January.
They don't want wee mac, wee mac doesn't want to be there - usually an A league club would release the player unless a club from asia or europe offers them some money, which there has been no indication of this being the case. Instead they're holding his career to ransom (and his livelihood since he isn't getting paid), in order to get a payment from an A league club that is against the rules.
