scott herbertson Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 24 minutes ago, It should have been ten said: That would show the measure of the man then. If after everything the club has done for him from when he joined the age of 10 he'd feel he wouldn't want to do his best for us in any negotiations it would only reiterate what many of us mean by his stinking attitude. Also he hasn't exactly wanted to do his best for us for a long enough time. Glad the whole saga is over and we can all move on. We would go round in in circles with this for ever. But I agree it’s best over now and at least he didn’t go to Rangers and we got a bit of dosh for him. Time will tell whether he’s a busted flush or still fit enough to return to form.

Buffalo Bill Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 A talented player who scored a lot of good goals for us. Good luck to him in future, unless he ends up at Rangers. I'm glad he's moved on now though. I hate the idea of any player in maroon not wanting to be here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maroonnicky63 Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Just now, It should have been ten said: Why though? Anything said on here he's brought on himself with his piss poor attitude. Glad to see the back of him and the whole saga. This is utter nonsense and you know it, I can understand fans being disappointed in him wanting to leave and I can also understand fans coming on here and saying how disappointed they are that he is going, some have been way over the top with there comments. Jamie has been with the club for around 14 years and does not deserve some of the disgusting comments on here. I hope he does well and I am sure he will but perhaps the kicking he took from some on here and the stick his family took may not lead him to wanting to do any negotiations at all.I do have to say however that he has also had to great support from the usual crew on here which is great to see.He will be well missed as we don't have anyone near as good as him in the position he playes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glamorgan Jambo Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Best of luck to Jamie at Wigan. A great choice of club for him for many reasons.

Jamie has been a stand out for us and yes the last year has been a nightmare for him but the club must take some responsibility for that as well because of announcing he was leaving before any decision had been made.A blind man running for bus could see he was no where near fit in the Edinburgh derby, he should never have played I would say most players deserve to be remembered for wearing the Hearts strip and I have no issue with any of them with exception to. The only player or ex player should I say that does not deserve any recognition for what he has done is Presley for what he done against all the Hearts fans on his return with Celtic to Tyncastle ,what the hell he was thinking I will never know , the most disgusting snub on a return I think I have ever seen, I was astonished the way he treated the fans who supported him so well when he was at Hearts, I have no doubt you will disagree with that as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His work rate was never the greatest and like it or not it has got even less these last 2 seasons. As regards whinging I am merely voicing a different opinion to yours. Is that not allowed without having to receive childish and petulant personal insults? As regards not going to games you've got that wrong as well, Jamie.

Bozi Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 I actually fear a bit for Jamie down there, he has hardly looked fit for about a year now, struggled against a strong Hibs midfield in every game he came up against them and seems to have lost what pace he had. The main aim of for him to integrate into the team ahead of promotion. Issue being the championship is a long hard physical slog, you need to be fit, strong and being quick is an advantage. He has the skill but I think the injuries have had an impact mentally and I don't think he has the fitness or mental strength to be a success down there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
