Rods Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 I think it is inevitable he is away. This may be unpopular but we need the money and cannot let him go for free so the destination may end up being Celtic. Another note what is wrong with the championship a his age?

J80MBO Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Get a good fee. Move him on. Seen it too often about young superstars. Might well turn into a star. To date he has been a decent player. If he wants to leave and get a decent fee with a sell on % in deal then move him on if that's what he wants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diadora Van Basten Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 I thought he was after first team wages and we weren’t offering him that. He would be stupid to move on just now better to extend his contract by a year in return for improved wage. If he leaves at 19 he will have a much better chance of success when he moves on.

But yeah I wouldn't care much at all if the entire squad was emptied, they're the ones who led us into this shitshow with their lacklustre eye bleeding performances.

indianajones Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Pretty sure its up to us seen as he has a year on his contract. I'd rather see him in the stands for a year than move to that lot of cheating *******s in the West. They actually have the audacity to blame us for their under performance in Europe.

Smith, Naismith, Boyce, Dikamona and Hickey were all definite pass marks for me. Irving, Clare, Washington and Walker in patches too when not injured or being played out of position. Would be more than happy if those are the players we retain, plus Souttar, Halkett and Haring (the pre-injury versions of all three) and Cochrane, MacDonald, Brandon, Henderson, Moore and any other youngsters we think we can bring on in the Championship, if that's where we end up.

Agree with keeping the young players they have to be the best choice. Irving had a few decent games too. Moore is another I missed, I was impressed with him toward the end, never stopped trying.

OTT Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 My view is we try and push the laddie to go down south. Not just to avoid the humiliation of having to sell him for peanuts to Celtic, but to actually get out of the ****ing fishbowl of Scottish football. Naysmith, Naismith, Tierney, Adam (the list goes on), plenty Scottish lads thrive outside of the press microscope. Playing for the OF and taking a cooshy gig for meaningless league titles ala Brown isn't impressive and won't see him reach his undoubted potential. The lad has real quality and a good temperament on the field. He could be for a big team down south in a couple years. I think he's pushing too hard for the move away tbh, but its his choice. If Celtic are his be all and end all, then we should try and get as good a deal as we can. Sell on fee plus Bain would be ideal. Sorts our keeper issue out for the next 5 years easy. It should really be a cautionary tale about managing youngsters contracts better though. If you give them too much exposure too young, then the club can't reap the benefit of their ability. 17 and pushing his way out of Scotlands 3rd largest clubs for reserve football elsewhere seems poorly judged. Whatever happened to the Man City deal? Did that break down? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dusk_Till_Dawn Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Can hardly blame him if he wants to leave. As if Alloa and Arbroath are good opposition for a developing player. If we need the money we should get him sold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it will be a much weaker league than the one we played in, not just because Hibs and Rangers won't be there but because all the championship clubs will have been significantly weakened due to this crisis.
