He has either genuinely walked away from quadrupling his wages at least to stay at Hibs. Or Rangers have bid for him. Of course the obvious thing to do if you wanted to stay in Scotland would be to get your agent to line up a move to another country and then call it off. My money is on him having done the medical and failed it when they discovered he doesn’t have any bollocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henroddy Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 If he wants to stay in Scotland only 2 teams could afford him. Celtic don't need him. If I was a betting man I'd say he's possibly off to Rangers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wee Mikey Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 1 hour ago, Craig Herbertson said: Our main problem is trying to write songs quickly enough for outstanding new players; Hibs seem to have a problem keeping any. While mulling this over I suddenly thought - have we stepped in with an offer for Nisbet? I have a cracking new song for Robbie. It's a total ear-worm and very, very easy to learn. An 8-bar, 4/4 march. Perfect for The Gorgie that can be repeated ad-infinitum with numerous possible lyrical changes. Unfortunately, I'm not au-fait with posting youtube clips otherwise I'd just do a wee home vid, but could resort to writing it out as sheet music. It's way easier to learn 'by ear', though. Is it @Ski Nae who has such technological skills? Anyhoo, there is no chance whatsoever that we've stuck in a bid for Nesbit. Why on earth would we want a derby failure diluting our squad? Not to mention his possible injury issue. Nah, this latest twist is nothing more than (yet) another example of the utter turmoil surrounding H1b5. Chances are that the lad was scuppered during his medical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"The Scotland internationalist was due to undergo a medical with the Lions, but the player’s preference is to remain in Scotland." 🤒 I wouldn’t rule out the possibility that Nisbet had the medical and Millwall had concerns, sufficient to back out from a deal that’s quite big for a club of their size. ”Failed” medicals are a sensitive subject for all concerned. I recall a few decades ago, John Brown was set to join us from Dundee until a medical raised doubts. In the end, it worked out for him with a move from Dundee to Ibrox a year later and a lengthy period there in a successful squad. But he seemed to bear a grudge against Hearts for years after on the subject. He never quite got the point that the fee would have been a major signing for us, much less so for Rangers who were buying him to strengthen the squad and could afford to take a bigger risk.

Probably the most likely scenario. It occurred to me on Monday that Millwall might be taking on too much of a risk with that kind of money for Nisbet so soon after he returned from a serious long term injury. May have written a clause into his contract that he had to play a certain number of games or something similar by the end of the season which put his agent/advisors right off the deal. The "prefer to stay in Scotland" comments indicate that too since he's already registered with the SFA but not with other football bodies who could decline his registration if there is evidence of medical problems.

I would suggest that he didn't seem to bear a grudge against us, he most certainly did hold that grudge. He publicly revelled in it when he scored against us. As you say, the risk to Hearts of spending around £450k on a player with a possible knee problem was huge. Not so much for Rangers with their newly acquired millions. Brown used to exclaim his dislike of Wallace Mercer for cancelling the transfer from Dundee, but the story, at the time, went that it was actually Pilmar Smith who persuaded Wallace that it was too big a risk for us. To be fair, it was too big a risk for us. Edited January 27, 2023 by SectionDJambo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SE16 3LN Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 Millwall would have been a brilliant move for him. Big club on the edge of the play offs, multi cultural city living, at the centre of most good things happening in the UK. . He probably shat it when he saw a proper football club with brilliant fans and a professional medical set up that would have found him out as soon as he walked through the door.
