Boris Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Walker appears to be working his ticket, but on the flip side have we picked up players from other sides in a similar way? I suppose my point is that in modern football it's swings and roundabouts. In respect of Walker though, we are hardly knocking back offers with a shitty stick!

Jambos4life Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 I really don't mind him going tbh although I personally do rate him as a player and yes if there's a job for more money then I would leave my job, but 1 his attitude since this came about has been very unprofessional and childish, secondly as a fellow hearts fan I thought we should have had more respect from him i.e. Not trying in games etc. Also is selling to rangers goes back into old ways where they take the piss and think they can take what ever they like.tell them to get to and sell him else where Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky jamboa Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 It's not the end of the world if we lose walker for nothing next season. Look how many players we have signed for free - berra, sow, djoum, lafferty etc. We got ?1m for sow, which cancels out any loss we make on walker. If we lose one for nothing, we'll still have won more than we've lost, and we send out a message to players and other clubs that we wont be mucked about.

MoncurMacdonaldMercer Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 It's also sad that some people think you can just say "got to do what's best for family eh" and it absolves you of any responsibility for any sort of shady conduct. Like some sort of one size fits all get out of jail free card type thing. He's playing for one of the country's biggest clubs. He's paid well, they even offered to pay him more. He's been nurtured and developed from a kid with talent into a first team regular and someone with a chance of playing for his country at some point. Kids get his name on their shirts. They queue to speak to him. Supporters sing his name. Just grow up, get a backbone, stop letting your agent agitate via the media and erode any goodwill you built up, and do the right bloody thing, Jamie. You're hardly being sent down the salt mines every day ffs. a player who has more than earned his money here a player who has a potential recurring injury which could limit his career and also shorten it but he's expected to not try and cash in (before it might be too late in his case) because a few folk sang his name and some kids got his name on their shirt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he can convince Levein he's committed for a season I'd rather keep him than take 500 grand or whatever in instalments which is what it sounds like they are offering.

Fozzyonthefence Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 **** Sevco and **** Jamie Walker. The club needs to take a stand here. If they sell for less than ?1m now it makes them look weak. SSN reporting Sevco yet to make a new bid and wont match asking price so not sure why they're even reporting non news. I reckon they'll come in with a reduced offer maybe up front this time or just wait til January to sign on pre contract (or is it only non Scottish teams that can do that?).

i wish jj was my dad Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 I stand corrected I meant the first team We've picked up 4 points from 4 away fixtures at places we generally get our arse felt, including trips to both sets of bigots, with an interim coach in the dugout. We've definitely experienced a helluva lot worse than that in my time and the not so distant past. Look at the bigger picture though. Yes, Cathro was a disaster but one I and most people on here thought was worth the risk. But he's gone now and we've taken our time to decide what to do nest. After our first choice decided to join an EPL club we've assessed our options and appointed an experienced ex international coach as manager who has a more than decent track record at the club from his previous stint. As safe a pair of hands as we could get I'd wager. We've signed a current Scottish international and the country's best centre half as our captain. Personally, I think he is arguably the best signing we've made in the last ten years. We've also signed two current NI internationalists at the peak of their career and one of them could probably earn 3 or 4 x what we are paying given his pedigree. No matter how much the haters tell me otherwise, I don't feel any turmoil. I'm actually right up for it. Whether Jamie is or not is down to him If he's not, he can clean the toilets for all I care.

Diego10 Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 If they don't up their bid massively then keep him. I think he's mainly suffered from the team being terrible rather than lack of effort. Saturday he was a mixed bag but still probably our most dangerous player. Made a mistake at the goal obviously. If we do keep him then I don't think at all he'd just down tools. Who would be interested in signing him if he did given his poor end to last season. We'd lose money probably but we can't sign a player of his ability for 300k.

I certainly haven't seen it confirmed anywhere. No i'm not. I can't claim it as fact but it's not a huge leap. I'm happy for you to treat it as speculation if that would make you feel better. Jon daly has done well and deserves praise - were you at the games tho? it's difficult not to be happy with the point at rangers but they really were dire Wasn't at either OF games and I know Rangers are dire. It boils my pish that we aren't wiping the floor with them but I'm not going to have a go at Daly for that. anyway the main period being referred to was from the Rangers 4-1 game . most of that was under cathros reign and in your words was a disaster - so you're judging a player very strongly on a period you have just described as a disaster. that kind of has some flaws in it. He'sarguably the best signing we've made in the last ten years I agree Cathro was a disaster and as much as I desperately wanted him to succeed I had a horrible feeling at Starks Park and it never quite went away. On balance I think the club was right to give him time but hindsight will probably prove otherwise. I really wanted to break the mould but my instinct is to be pragmatic and maybe that;s what we need right now. On Jamie, I don;t have much sympathy. As much as I never got above amateur I worked with coaches who were out of their depth and some I couldn't stand but I never gave less than 100%. I don't believe Jamie can honestly say the same. I also coached and I'm sure some of the guys I coached felt I was crap but I still felt entitled to expect 100% for me I thought Cathro was worth the risk - it didn't pay off Agree I'm happy with levein as manager. Agree I'm happy with most of the recent signings - hopefully get 2-3 more (funded by Jamie's transfer fee if need be) Would suit me fine but I'd rather take the hit than let the huns think they can get our players on the cheap if all they had to do is turn an immature laddie's heid. I was stood corrected and revised the statement to the first team was in turmoil for the bulk of period in question - you described the same period as a disaster . No I didn't. I felt that this era doesn;t in any way compare with turmoil we've experienced in the last 45 years. Hagart, Paton. Ormond, Tony Ford, players about to go on strike at Cappiellow, Kenny Waugh, unable to get out of Div 1, yo yo years, crawford boyd, alfie Conn, peter marinello, chucking a 2-1 lead away to lose 5-2 at home to Dumbarton, 5-2 , losing to Forfar at home in the big cup, being unable to pay Dundee Utd, Andy Watson, player revolt under Jordan, 6-0 at Brockville, two seasons where relegation was avoided on don last day, McLean, another player revolt, captain smacking centre half in friendly, Robinson v JJ, SMG, ?20m+debt, selling players like Naysmith, Niemi and Cameron for a fraction of their value, Murrayfield, Cala holmes, best chance of winning the league in 40 odd years getting blown, coaches not picking the team, vlad flu, Rix, Malofeev, Riccarton 3, Shaggy, Nade the only striker, Witeveen, Obua, Kurskis, Barassa, Kucharski, players not being paid, McGlynn, players not being paid again, fire sale, Lockie, losing to St Liedown, ICT at Fester, admin, points deduction I've commented on your various points but how does that look for real turmoil over the last 45 years, bud?

busby1985 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Nothing has changed from Hearts point of view, it's pretty simple stuff. We have a player that doesn't want to be here and a player we are willing to sell. Unless I have missed some big news at Rangers, nothing has changed with them. I don't see us lowering our valuation, I don't see us accepting low range instalment payments that add up to the figure we want. Hearts have made this very easy for Rangers, they can't afford him but can't be seen to acknowledge this for fear their fans will revolt, we are the people and all that.

Spencer Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 This instalments stuff is a nonsense. Does anyone have intimate knowledge of how the average transfer fee is settled? Some appear to wish to have intimate knowledge of the clubs operational cash flow The reality is that most of not all transfer fees will be paid in installments. Clubs in Scotland in particular simply won't have the Financial wherewithal to settle such transactions in full at the outset. There is some real puffed out chest pish spouted on here. Whether we like it or not, Hearts are going to have to work with Rangers to get a deal agreed here for a guy desperate to leave this club. Getting worked up about how the transfer fee is actually physically paid borders on hysteria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
