EIEIO Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 3 minutes ago, CAR said: I think people are basing it on a number of things 1 Strengthening a competitor 2 Consistently being done over both the Ar*e cheeks 3 Would rangers accept this for gouldson? 4 They have been quoted £2M for a guy from holland in the exact same situation (Wouldn't be surprised if they paid that tbh as they will gladly pay clubs out with Scotland good money) I would rather take the financial hit and stand firm against them to make a point than to look stupid after already having stated publicly that it will take and ridiculous offer! This is how I feel and obvs many others but everyone is clearly entitled to their own opinion. Ultimately its down to the board so we will need to wait and see Agree to a certain extent but as soon a player enters the last 6 months of his contract the club can do little. Due to our demotion and covid we weren't in a position to secure Souttar to a longer deal if indeed he would have signed one. Every club to get decent cash needs to sell a player 12-18 months before their contract expires. Football is a passionate game though so I don't want to see him in a Hearts jersey again. Unfortunately the blue arse cheek know this and have the whip hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying he necessarily will because of course this will have some impact on him, but he's a proper professional so I think he can continue to be a key player for us this season. All different if we can find a long-term replacement this window who is of the required quality, but that is really difficult to do in this window. Agreed 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luckydug Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 3 hours ago, TheBigO said: Bit of a tough call, and I'd tend to agree with you. I think Soapy is a good character and would almost definitely try his best. 2 things. You have a big contract right there, signed in principle, ready to go. Even if you do your "best", is your "best" going to be subconsciously within yourself. You've nothing to prove now, you've won your move. History of injury, may he hold back, even if he doesn't mean to? Second thing, and a bigger point for me... may say this is cutting my neb aff to spite my pus, but he's chosen to go to a rival and a hated one at that. Money, I get it. Nowt personal, big guy. But we're sending a message that we're not their feeder club and you're sitting in the stand and training with the kids. And anyone who thinks about running down a contract will get same treatment. No appearance fees for Soapy (but he's aff to get more money anyway) and a player who is rusty for the huns. Not the biggest slap for either, but it's principle and message that's important here for me. Likelihood is we'll play him. Cos the thing we don't get as supporters is the guys in the dressing room, incl Robbie and the coaches will really like John as a guy and not want to treat him badly, and they'll trust him as a guy to do his best. A third point, actually is the atmos is could cause with fans. He'll get treatment from home support - his every mistake will be pounced upon. Do we need any negativity at a time when the club have worked so hard and done really well to get the fans back on side??? Good post and just about covers this sad situation imo.

We don't hold the cards in this game. Don't get me wrong I will be foaming at the mouth as much as anyone if he plays on Tuesday night.

I think we should push for as much as possible and accept what we can (I’m sure the club are doing this, FWIW). I’m talking about those who are doing their best at putting forward the “understanding” viewpoint in terms of Souttar ****ing us over to move to them for as little as possible. Should he move to Rangers, I wish him nothing but the worst luck and I hope he fails massively and his career nosedives as a result. I can’t understand those who wish him luck and consider him “a good guy”. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Following your idea we lose out on £400k, we lose out on any potential sell-on fee, we pay him £100k for rest of contract, we are a defender short for rest of season. That’s lose,lose,lose and lose. Where do we win if we let him sit in the stand? I’m confused See my last post. I wasn’t talking about the offer, I don’t think we should accept the first offer but we should definitely sell him and 400k is more than I expected them to offer in fairness. I’m talking about those who don’t seem to mind him shafting us to move to Rangers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTT Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 I want us to be needlessly awkward and petty more than I want the money tbh. Our market by and large is free agents. A couple hundred grand isn't going to make much odds. I'd rather make the process so onerous, painful, uncomfortable and bordering on humiliating that the next player looks at that and decides they'd rather take the options on offer down south. I don't want to be a feeder club for the OF, nor do I want to embolden rangers to think shopping local is cheap and efficient. I'd rather he walked on a free to an English club than take a penny from the bigots frankly.

Wilson Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 I don't know here this £400k for JS is coming from, but given it's The Rangers, I don't believe it for a second. Given their history of this type of thing they will wait until 28th/29th Jan and offer £100k tops in 4 annual instalments. Barstewards. Regardless, JS should never kick a ball for Hearts again.

Going down south to challenge themselves they go with the best wishes of everyone associated with the club.
