HMFC86 Posted July 27, 2018 It was £120k upfront rising to £200k if they win the league in his first contract ? £800k + and all upfront. Interesting if we offer a new deal. Csn see him leaving with us using part off the cash ya bring in the Czech lad now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SuperstarSteve Posted July 27, 2018 Lafferty should be told he’s going nowhere, if he wants to walk at the end of the season then so be it, watching our top striker leave to a club we can compete with and should be trying to is a ****ing disaster!

robbies-tackle Posted July 27, 2018 Sorry but Wallace is finished. Been out for a year now and injury not improving plus he's still got a year left on his contract at mega wages. I'm in the 'under no circumstances sell to those tramps' camp. Would rather he left for nowt next year. However there is the problem that he might sign a pre-contract in January and down tools.

Jambo, Goodbye Posted July 27, 2018 No chance they had even the tiniest expectation that we'd accept that offer. This is purely to try to unsettle our top goal scorer. Utterly scummy way to conduct yourself in the transfer market, but then again, new club, same old shite. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MadJock Posted July 27, 2018 Another year of Newco treating our club like our players are worth nothing. I know this wont happen as money talks but we should not be selling players to our rivals, especially for insulting offers. I do think he will go though, and it will be for an Undisclosed fee (seems to be the usual statement now) as unless he sings an extension the club are put in a terrtible situation of getting nothing Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sinks Posted July 27, 2018 Have heard that Mrs Budge payed his gambling debts and if he leaves they would require to be paid back Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mort Posted July 27, 2018 Similar situation to Walker last summer, we were declining much higher bids and I would argue that Lafferty is worth much more than Walker. Why would we entertain something so low? Insulting. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Dee Posted July 27, 2018 No way should we be selling him -especially to that lot. £1m+ before I’d be interested in talking about it. He’s been good for us, but we’ve been good for him. Whos to say what being back at Rangers will do to him? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

heartsfc_fan Posted July 27, 2018 Best case scenario for us would be Lee Wallace as part of the deal plus we get Vancek in and still have £700k left over. He's not looked right pre season and Ikpeazu certainly put more effort in that other night when he came on. I'd like him to stay but if he doesn't want to be here then....

stranraer-jambo Posted July 27, 2018 Can we change the title to "Sevco make a ridiculous derisory offer for Lafferty" Typical OF. Unsettling players, treating other clubs in a condescending manner then rely on the MSM to continue this on their behalf. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ray Gin Posted July 27, 2018 17 minutes ago, Rudy T said: What I don't understand is what they thought Hearts were going to do with that offer. At least Celtics offer for McGinn was a reasonable starting point for negotiations. 200k...All that tells me is Rangers are skint...not a chance lafferty was in SG's plans. He's gone to king and said we need a striker...Kings told him he's got 300k to buy one with and some genius has come up with Laffertys name. They want to sign him on a pre-contract for free in January. They're just publicly making it known that they want him in case Lafferty was thinking about a signing a contract extension.

Arnaud Posted July 27, 2018 We should have an old firm realease clause in every player's contract, with the fee set at a (high) level where we would be comfortable selling to them.

The Treasurer Posted July 27, 2018 If reports are to believed, they (sevco) are paying 10x that to get an untried youngster ON LOAN.
