Hense the time taken, to get him in for the derby the only way to get it done in time was a loan move, hearts preffered move was an option in that deal, that didn't happen but don't rule it out. Lots can happen when you have more than 3 days to do a deal. So when you say the "initial deal was a permanent deal"why is Craig now saying it will be "very difficult" to get him to stay long term?It doesn't quite add up.

I'm sure once SN loves it here he will want to move here permanently (looks like he loves it here already & was desperate to come here) so the chances of signing him in the summer and/or his release from Norwich will make us his favoured option.

I know full well what you were responding to but you seem to be latching on to spending all the Walker money and £15k per week which at best are hypothesis. If you know we are paying ridiculous figures then tell us. If you know nothing then post nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finding negativity in the most positive of stories suggests that you are either very hard to please, or what seems increasingly more likely, you are simply not a Hearts fan. When things are going badly I completely understand why people start to become exasperated and question the decision makers. This, however, is an unquestionably obtuse comment from yourself. You begin with a backhanded compliment but immediately change tac and question the financial aspects of the signing. Your lack of positivity is tedious.

Bring Back Paulo Sergio Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 It sounds like a permanent deal was never on the cards rather than we just lost out. Top marks have to go to Levein though, a fantastic player to get on loan. Enjoy him for 6 months. Forget about him staying though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rest for a rainy day. No matter which way it is done, it will mean more money for players and wages, so all is good. The more that FOH pay into infrastructure, for example, the more the club have for other things. That's just one option, there are many more.

Markymark Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 He will put at least another 300 bums on seats I believe that we wouldn’t have had on a weekly basis so at £25 a pop on average that more than cover his wage ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzzbomb1958 Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Anyone who has a moan about what we are paying him should have a word ,even if we are paying 5k a week for a player of his standing for what we've brought in is a great piece of business even Barry the crab agrees He is here for initially 6 months let's enjoy his goals which in no doubt he will score starting with the vermin.Hearts are a club moving forward we have to aim for better signings as long as we do not overspend which I trust Ann won't allow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two things need to happen, Norwich have absolutely got to want rid of him, who knows what might happen with them between now and July and he has to revert to an SPL wage, which may be the easier of the 2 to negotiate. After all that, there may be other clubs in Scotland who will offer him something better, though I doubt that.
