Gav M Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 £150k might seem a bit steep, but if it gets us him now when there are others circling then it might be a decent deal. may also be higher to limit the sell on fee as well. higher now, less later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would definitely have Souttar and Halkett ahead of him although maybe we could develop him. 51 minutes ago, jambonian said: I mentioned Euan Murray on here a few weeks ago. Think there's a couple of clubs looking at him. Aberdeen is one i'm told but not in the know. He'd be an ideal replacement for Berra, left-sided, pretty solid and handy at set pieces. Mid-20s i think as well. I'd rather Jimmy Dunne but that isnae going to happen anytime soon so he'd be the obvious candidate. Can't think of too many others within our budget. Euan Murray has just turned 27, he’s getting attention this year for scoring from set pieces but apart from 3 games for Motherwell he has no top level experience. I don’t think he is going to be good enough for a top 6 Premiership team, which is where we want to be next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That entirely depends on who else is sniffing around. There's no doubt that if we really want him, and he decides to wait that he may end up choosing that his future lies elsewhere. I guess that for example, if our DoF got wind that others were about to move that we may need to offer a bit more to try and tie it up before we get into a bidding war.

You’d be as well binning the academy completely if you’re going to sign other clubs youth players and let them stay that long. 19 year old Decent prospect apparently but has only played 8 games. In any case Robbo isn’t certain to be there much longer. Edited January 22, 2021 by JimmyCant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was probably down to his five goals in our european campaign in 88/89. As for loving a tackle...oooff! Did he ever! I remember him chopping Richard Gough down when he was doing a goal-line clearance. Got sent off for his trouble. Still won 2-0 though. Dec 10th 1988, i remember it well as that same night my local pub at the time got trashed, no idea why. 50k for Galloway was money very well spent! Up there with Levein (30k), Webster (50-75k?), Kirk (50k), Souttar (175k?), Colquhoun (30k?) and Templeton (30K) as small fee transfer "punts", although they weren't all punts as such. 150k for this striker seems worth a punt if we really want him and it's likely we've done a lot of homework on him this time. Other teams - cough Hibs cough - are paying a lot more than that on punts. Even if he doesn't do that well, a club down south could easily pay that to take him back south again as he seems to have a good reputation in that league, so there's a fair chance we could at least recoup that fee. We probably got around that for the likes of Uche and Clare. Edited January 22, 2021 by ToqueJambo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was chuffed to bits when we signed him and he was every ounce the signing I hoped he would be. Still recall the oddity of him playing his last game for Dundee against Hearts at Dens when we all knew he'd be signing on the Monday. 1-1 draw, iirc. On topic, chuffed, too, with Kingsley's new deal. Eckersley was good too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTT Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Seems like the best move is to get him to sign a pre-contract and offer £50k or something to get the deal done now.
