He would need to look closer to home to apportion blame on that one. Oh well. Who said it was your fault he never got an offer? You've implied multiple times though he lacks ambition when you've directly compared Wigan and Seville. If you accept there was no offer you surely accept that comparison is a wrong one to make? I like Jamie, he's a very good player on his day and we are stronger when he's playing well. But this saga has went on far too long, his form has suffered and it's benefitting no one. I'd much rather see him go down south now for a fee than along the M8 for nowt in the summer. If he goes down there and gets us a bit cash I'll wish him well.

He can go where he wishes. He did a good job for us in difficult times, but a football player must know the game is fickle and develop a thick skin. Derek McInnes went from hero to devil back to hero in 48 hours for example. I like Jamie, I don't think he is too bright though. To be fair his team mates did make mention of it some time ago. I actually feel a bit sorry for the boy, he looks depressed and not that healthy in his legs. This move, if it happens might be his only one.

He has went from being on the radar at Betis to his form completely vanishing and running down his contract at Hearts whilst his agent begs Rangers to come in for him. Not great.

Just like our own Gary Locke when he moved to Bradford ... Harrogate was the choice and is a very nice place indeed. Like most footballers in the North West he will end up in a nice part of Cheshire., 30ish miles from Wigan to Prestbury and Alderley Edge. Would take just over 40 mins in the shiny new fast car his wage increase would afford him. Correct. ---Wilmslow ,Alderly Edge and Prestbury is known as the Golden Triangle where many footballers and celebrities live. Beautiful part of the world.

Hopefully for his own career longevity that is is in some way attributable to his contractual situation. I thought he was atrocious in the Derby last week when he appeared to try everything imaginable to get hooked, or dare I say, even sent off The player who cut in from the left and scored some cracking goals looks long gone. He is blowing after 20 mins of a big game. I'm staggered if those are traits that Rangers will see as something that can improve them I suspect that he will resist Wigan and let his contract run down. If that is the case I hope Levein doesn't play him to the detriment of opportunities for a couple of younger lads Hopefully for the sake of him and his family he makes a few quid somewhere. I really can't imagine him playing much into his 30's We need to move on from Jamie Walker and try something different.

sadj Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 (edited) 9 minutes ago, Barack said: Walker is struggling to displace water these days, never mind a player from another team. Will probably be an arthritic mess by his mid-30’s sadly. Was just away to write similar. Was trying to think where he could go that he’d be a first name on the teamsheet and not just a squad player based on his form the last 12months. Aside from a few of the bottom 6 spfl sides I was struggling. A good way to look at it is the difference between his perceived character/attitude and Pattersons. Shame cause there is talent there maybe he can move on get himself fit and let the talent show through again.

Appeared to be a deliberate attempt to get sent off I watched Walker and McGinn in the Derby last week. McGinn will get some move and probably flourish.
