Peebo Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Can't help but laugh at the last few words.. Aberdeen, Barnsley, Bristol City and Minnesota United are all interested in snapping up the forward. And Rangers could face an anxious wait, as they allow Nicholson to decide on the next step to take in his burgeoning career. Burgeoning means to develop quickly or rise rapidly so it's an odd way to describe someone whose career has, at best, stalled. The standard of writing in HITC is generally even worse than some of the stuff that appears in the Scotsman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maroonnicky63 Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 You never know in football they both may stay but I doubt it perhaps they both need a change as they have been at the club for around 10 years I think but never say never especially in football.

Bauld Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 If I were Sam I'd be dashing towards Bristol or Barnsley as fast as I could. There's an opportunity there to get into English football at a decent level for a young player go get regular games and grow. Frankly if you're offered that and you have any ambitions at all to reach a higher level you have to take it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maroonnicky63 Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 it's game time for me that is more important and that's why I don't think either will go to Rangers as they are still young and developing. I think they will choose to go to a team where they will get game time, Rangers is not the answer for either of them but you never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Treasurer Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Those saying "game time" is the most important thing, would you choose job satisfaction over doubling your salary ? Doubt many would so why do you expect football players to be different ? Only players who are 100% confident in their own ability to make further progress will choose to take the smaller club, smaller wage route. Whether Walker or Nicholson have that confidence remains to be seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucille's Thirsty Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 We've let too many players go already and haven't replaced them if we're taking this season seriously we need to keep a hold of our best players and that is Walker. We shouldn't be selling our players to either of the old firm that should be a rule in our club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watt-Zeefuik Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 I wonder if he went to Minnesota with some idea of what an MLS club looked like and got a rude awakening when he got there. They're a well-run club with one of the best supporters groups in the US but sitting the bench for the fourth most popular professional team in a mid-sized US city where it's cold enough in the winter to watch soap bubbles shatter may not be the big move he had in mind. If he moves within the UK I hope it's down south and not to Ibrox, but I'm also not 100% convinced he won't change his mind and sign a new contract with Hearts.

Haken Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 I think if Sam really wants to take the next step, he needs to have a serious think about the conditioning aspect of his training regime. At the moment, he could hardly knock the skin off a rice pudding and English Championship level defenders wouldn't find him much of a handful. The same goes for Walker, to an extent. It's comething that Paterson seemed to realise and took action to address. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luckydug Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Just get the two of them sold and get replacements who actually want to play for us. Walker's not a bad player at SPFL level but has to be treated with kid gloves because of his injury history. Nicholson i don't think we have a cat in hell's chance of getting the full development fee. If they are the standard Rangers are looking at they wont be winning trophies any time soon. The thought of giving Walker a new contract just because Rangers may not want him is wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJGJ Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 If Sam goes to Aberdeen then questions need to be asked of his ambition If he goes to Rangers its for financial reasons If he goes south then he can at least make the excuse he's moving to improve himself though many of the clubs mentioned are not at the top end of the championship. It would put him in the shop window.......but his injury record over the last couple of years has impacted greatly on his career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

socrates82 Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 I can't see any club paying over 200,000 or even close for Nicolson. He failed to establish himself in our first team so it's very much a Jason Holt situation. I'm sure we'll settle for 50 grand or so from whoever will take him. Wouldn't be surprised to see him at Aberdeen. Walker is a different level of player entirely and we should hold out for top whack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To go to Aberdeen, play is a half empty shithole, train in a field.. Sure they were better than us last season.. Not exactly been the pattern for the last 30 years and highly unlikely to be sustained. Saying that.. I think hes pretty shit.. Vanishes when the going gets tough..
