Bongo 1874 Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 Few teams down England offering him crazy money but not a guaranteed starter, Aberdeen looking to get pitman and are keeping tabs on halkett also rangers always been interested that said he hasn't been offered to be backup here and that might sway it in our favour quietly confident.

They have oversight of everything going on at the Club not just 90 minutes every weekend. An example: how many of saturdays squad were carrying knocks from Tuesday? How many of saturdays squad just didn’t fancy playing on a soaking wet plastic pitch? I suspect both were major factors. Certainly both Soutar and Levein have questioned lack of focus, , winning second balls etc. Scotland play on Thursday and most of Eck’ s first choice players will be missing.

In his shoes, would you jump at the first offer or wait until summer to see what offers are on the table? Common-sense says wait unless he is a diehard fan of the club that makes the first offer. I’d much rather he weighed everything up and chose us. However in all these potential transfers money talks and he possibly has the choice of being a regular starter at Hearts on £4K per week or centre-back no7 at Ibrox on £10k per week.

Ill assume you don’t have an update on Halkett? On the topic of Halkett though , I think he could sign for a bigger club easily what I’v seen of him he has the attributes to go far. Working under Levein along with Souttar and Berra would undoubtably improve him further. I fear it’ll come down to money though as his agent seems to be shopping him about and I reckon that will include down south.
