If they went to the wall this summer Hamilton would probably get pennies in the pound. So must be a personal guarantee legally binding. Otherwise its worthless.

Crystal Palace and Swansea (I think) linked to him, would have paid the fee up front but despite being on the financial edge they won’t see a penny for 7 months?

Walter Bishop Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Said this on Lafferty thread, he will be away imo. Think the whole Lafferty thing is going to come down to money. I genuinely believe we want him to stay and he wants to stay, But the guy has a lifestyle where it would be beneficial if he was earning more money. I dont think we will be hard to deal with if a good offer comes in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep.One of those two scenarios.He'll be gone.Can feel it in my bones.So that's two strikers we will need as going by the Levein interview,he talks of needing one striker while talking of Lafferty as still being one of the squad.

TyphoonJambo Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 One things for sure, it’s going to be an interesting, and frantic 72 hours ( can’t be arsed counting down the exact amount of time left) and with the Lafferty rumour gathering pace, it will have to be productive. Think the next indicator will be seeing whether Lafferty travels tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cl is working hard during this window with comings and goings, has done good business and is bit by bit re-building the squad post -Cathro. I am not worried whether Laff leaves or stays, a good offer will not be refused. A new striker should arrive either way, along with a midfielder and progress will continue, exciting times and back on the rails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thought Police Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 This is what irks me about the January transfer window. If we lose Lafferty we have to instantly try to shoe horn one or two new signings into the team, and hope for instant results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suggesting Lennon to me is ludicrous , be a hibs/celtic select , risk alienating a good percentage of the support etc. Looking around MacInnes is ok but he gets caught short tactically a lot when it matters. After him??? Owen Coyle came to Ross C with an ok rep but hasnt done much with what he had. That would lead to questions about his ability. The best football mind in Scotland has been there done it and is firmly entrenched in our club. Where do you go? The SFA needs a clear out top to bottom , Regan , Doncaster etc are not forward thinking and we fall further behind the ROW. The idea of the Colts shows just how much this country revolves around two clubs not the rest nor the national team. We have too many league clubs as it is , its just a shambles. Managerwise , due to all the above. Clarke may well be best placed to take it on , but if approached he’d see it as the poisoned chalice it is at the moment i think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HMFC THE TEAM FOR ME Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 It’ll be a very poor decision by the club to let him go with 72 hours remaining of the window.. maybe the summer but do not let him leave before then we need to add to the current squad not let important players depart we shouldn’t be in the position to become a selling club!

Beast Boy Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 I think Lafferty will go. I’m not too concerned about the time to replace him thing. It’s not like we would be starting from scratch in trying to buy a replacement, we will have made contact about a few players and much of the work will already have been done regarding their recruitment. How good they are is another matter. Lafferty is harder to replace than Stockton for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HMFC THE TEAM FOR ME Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Of course “ every club “ has a price for a player however I wouldn’t let Lafferty, go for 1 million right now. Maybe 2 mill if somebody would pay that which is unlikely. But our aim for this season should be top 4 qualifying for Europe, Scottish cup run selling Lafferty 72 hours before the window closes probably unable to replace him with similar quality is the wrong descion. Would rather a season of Europe and cup runs than sitting with 1 million that certainly won’t be reinvested into players that’s for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jambof3tornado Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Well I'm glad we don't get all our business done at the start of the window. I much prefer the madness during the last 48 to 72 hours of it! Pretty sure I was moaning at the start we should be better organised!!! If lafferty goes for good money it will benefit the club, he has been a bit disappointing to be honest but I'd happily keep him too, to see how he settles in the 2nd part of the season.
