Rocky jamboa Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 A severe lack of ambition if he moves to one of the bigot brothers. I don't have any issues with him looking to move away from us to earn more cash, particularly with the injuries he's had, but a move to der hun will be a massive kick in the nuts to us, after the support we've given him over the last few years. If he does go, we should agree a transfer and let him go now. Can imagine they will try to low ball us so if so, I would let him train with the kids for the rest of his contract.

No longer active Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 (edited) The laddie can go where he wants. If he goes to Sevco then so be it. Okay he will get quite a reception if he remains playing or as back up from our fans, but in all honesty I am sure his skin will be thick enough to cope with that. I would have him on the bench mostly and use him as we need him. I would probably not play him against Sevco unless we really have to. He is a professional - he will honour his contract and it is in his own best interest to play well if he wants any chance at playing in Qatar next year. The fans that think he owes us something don't understand that everyone is out to get the best deal they can. He has decided to leave, which is his right. There are lots of players who leave us for pastures new and when they return they get the treatment from the fans. It all just adds to the atmosphere! Gordon returned to us because it suits him and he loves the club; rest assured he wouldn't be with us if he was 5 years younger and could earn bigger wages elsewhere. The same can be said for other returnees Robbo, Rudi, Webster etc JS and RN just need to scout a decent replacement or develop the blokes we have whilst trying to convince those loanees that Hearts is where they want to play next. I am sure they will achieve their aims - if not; we are Hearts fans and we always support the team regardless. I hope as always that we continue to be involved in all competitions at the sharp end of the season.

Tongue firmly in cheek of course. Love Soapy and I’ll always thank him for his efforts at Hearts, but if he does sign a pre-contract I’d want him to just go now. Id say freeze him out but that’s a bit too petty for me and will make other players think twice about their own future treatment by the club. We’ve dealt without him before plenty of times and I don’t want Hearts developing and strengthening a player for one of our rivals. Is what it is and I’d hold no grudges, always look after number 1 at the end of the day, yourself and your family. All just hypothetical for now however, but how many times have we been here over the years. If wishing to look after your family its not the best move to sign for either one of the bigots. He's got a business to run as well he might find his customer base has just reduced. Anyway him staying on till the end of season does no one any good. He'll likely end up getting dropped for shitting out of tackles then his Scotland place would be at risk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess the point I was (badly) making was; wouldn't he fancy his chances at carving a name for himself down south and possibly challenging for Europe with an EPL team on double the wages rather than try and fail at Europe and inevitably get replaced by one of the many "John Souttar level" players out there who are 20 years old (possibly sooner than expected since Rangers have the resources to replace a player like him, Hearts do not).

I’m sure he’ll get paid handsomely if he moves to Rangers but probably get paid more at an English Championship club. I do always think it’s the easy way out and a lack of ambition when an internationalist moves to Rangers or Celtic though. Other than a few European games (they’re guaranteed that now since, if they’re pish they just keep moving down to a lower standard of European tournament), they won’t really be testing themselves by staying in Scotland. English Championship is a better standard than our Premier and Premiership is just a different stratosphere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s far too reasonable a post for here 😊. it’s difficult to separate the emotion from this situation however. As fans, we’ve all invested our emotional wellbeing into Hearts and we tend to be resentful at players who fall short of our commitment. As you say though, it’s understandable, if painful, if a player wants to earn more money elsewhere. Hopefully, the Ibrox-bound talk is just another attempt by a dutiful Scottish media to churn out their usual litany of feel-good yarns for the Grizzlies.

BervieJambo Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 I would rather he didn’t join Rangers, but in his shoes it’s a no-brainer. From the experience he has had so far he knows that each game could be his last, so he needs to maximise his money & opportunities while he can. Rangers will pay similar money to English Championship clubs, but he has the opportunity of CL games against big Euro teams which Blackburn & Sheff Utd simply cannot offer. I don’t think games at Coventry or Preston are any more appealing than Motherwell or Livi! Also if he does well at Rangers then there’s a chance of a move to the EPL - if it goes pear-shaped then the Championship will still be an option. I hope the earlier reports of 500K and a sell-on for a January move are true, as that is the best deal we are going to get out of it. We then move on and find his replacement.

Ex member of the SaS Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Don't really know what to make of this, I find it hard to believe that any footballer would willing go there knowing their circumstances. In Soapy's case I would have thought he would show a little loyalty and go where the best deal for him and us could be made and I seriously doubt Sevco are it. Should he go there for a pittance then we seriously need to rethink our strategy for looking after injured players, paying his wages for so long has not done us any favours. Players have a short career and they have to get money where they can, however after such a long time out and being cared for by Hearts that has to count for something.
