You clearly didn't read my comment. We've been forced to play him (Hibs game) and it annoys me we have such a pish squad that it was required. It's no secret that Hearts are a better team without Jamie Walker in it. To be fair it was pretty well kept secret in 2014/15, 15/16 and the first half of 16/17. He has way more end product than Milinkovic yet some think he can replace Walker. I’m ambivalent about him leaving as he clearly wants to leave but the fact is we’ll very probably struggle to find a consistent 7-12 goal a season midfielder anytime soon, unless Levein really has got his recruitment mojo back.

EIEIO Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Played for us during difficult times ie admin and relegation. On his day our best attacking player lately not his day very often. Hope he goes now rather than close season though. Will wish him well and remember the good times and save my bitterness for rantic and the vermin.

Watt-Zeefuik Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 I am glad he is moving on (pending the medical) and his form is clearly off but I think he should get a bit of a break given that he came through the club in the middle of admin, the Championship year, and had to deal with Cathro (when his form really went south). At his best he's a tremendous player -- up to him and his knees now if he'll ever achieve his best on a consistent basis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gizmo Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 54 minutes ago, Spencer said: They have done it to us when they have genuinely wanted one of our players. This is bordering on the stuff on here that Celtic wouldn't sell Scott Allan to us as we are a "rival" You really think Rangers have sought to unsettle Jamie Walker just to shit stir? If you've paid attention, particularly pre Sevco days - not that the current zombie reincarnation are any more moral or honest in their dealings, you'll be well aware that Rangers used their cheerleaders in the press to tap up and unsettle players. Do you think it's a coincidence that the huns interest in an opposition player so often drops in the press the day before they play that player's team? Rangers are absolutely happy to either take a player for a derisory amount* or at the very least, unsettle a player they see as a threat to them. *or in The Rangers case, not only a derisory offer but installments over a preposterous repayment period.

It's a shame that he's leaving under a bit of a cloud and him moving down south is probably the best outcome for both Jamie and the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Macros Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 (edited) Jamie has always been a bit of an enigma. I remember the game against Falkirk at home early in the 14/15 season when we were 3 up at half time and Jamie, Billy King and Sam were brilliant but that turned out to be a false dawn. I think Jamie is the type of player who wants the ball and to be involved when you're two or three up but isn't the player to get you two or three up, especially against the likes of Hibs, Celtic, Aberdeen and Rangers. If he's away to Wigan all the best to him, glad it's down south as I don't like players coming back to play against us regularly.

He's been a fantastic player for us but since his long term injury, he is now slow, injury-prone and (if recent appearances are anything to go by) clapped out.

amadjambo Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 I don’t think Rangers showed an interest to just unsettle Jamie, more to try and appease their own fans and show that they were looking to sign one of the brightest young talents in our game. Obviously, the way rangers go about things can unsettle a player which they’d be hoping can drive the price down so that we get rid of an unhappy player. Good luck to Jamie. A move to Wigan isn’t the worst move in the world. If he knuckles down and fulfills the potential he once had he can be a decent player for them. Right move for Hearts and Jamie, especially if we get £300k for him to reinvest in the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't see what all the fuss was about when the huns were after him, as you say he's "clapped out" now. They are no force to worry about if that's the standard of player they are after.

So Make Some Noise.. Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Getting sick to death of folk on here chastising fans who show discontent towards this guy. Decent prospect who looked to be finally showing his potential last term before spitting the dummy out at a new deal which would have made him highest earner in the team. Linked with a call up to the Scotland senior prior to this incident then like playing with a man down post incident. Summer antics (including very unprofessional social media) and a piss poor injury hit first half of this season, it's little wonder folk want rid of this pre Madonna. Take the money and run.

Texia Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 I always found the comments Don Cowie made about him interesting, basically said that if he could bring himself to knuckle down and make some sacrifices he would be a sensational player but he didn’t think he had it in him. Walker definitely came across that way, rakes of natural ability but lacks the dedication to be a great player. Wish him luck either way even if he is a wee bit of a hun.

Jodami Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 He has been rubbish for the last calendar year but we have had decent service before that and I wish him well. The whole scenario has been a bit of a shambles and there needs to be lessons learned by the club so we manage these situations to better effect in the future. Signing new contracts and selling at the right time is important and we don't seem to have a strategy that works. The Walker social media postings should also be used as an education piece in the academy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky jamboa Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Sorry to see him go in a way as he was a good wee player for us and always a goal threat. Unfortunately, his antics in the summer, trying to engineer a move to the huns, will leave a sour taste in the mouth. Good that it seems we will get some cash for him and gets rid of a player who doesn't want to be here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manny1874 Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 If the deal goes through and we get the £300k then he will go with my best wishes and I hope he does well down in England. While the last year or so has been troubled he has contributed a lot in his time at Hearts, though it is probably best for both parties to move on now.
