jambonian Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 ....according to the Record. Now, why doesn't that surprise me!? Is he only wanting to sign him because Hearts have shown an interest or does he actually think he'd do a turn for that lot? My money's on the former! Funny how he's never been mentioned in the press until Hearts mention it. Oh well... cashwise it'll be Celtic or the Championship! Nice thought while it lasted, unless the press are just stirring as usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devries4 Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 An old Walter Smith tactic (He canny afford to do it now). Nobble the players of opposition teams still to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eckauskas Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 Probably just paper talk at this point. Player on a hot streak will always be linked with a 'dream' move to either half of the Old Firm. It's the way things work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manny1874 Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 Probably Lennon is looking for a replacement for Chris Killen, a big striker who will be able to play rubbish pre season friendlies and tour matches, and the odd Co-op Cup match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drylaw Hearts Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 I don't think Lennon will be concerned much about Hearts signing targets and I certainly don't think he'd sign a player just to stop Hearts signing him.

Horatio Caine Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 I said on the other Sutton thread that I'd be surprised if Lennon isn't after him. Chris did well at Darkhead. Brother following in his footsteps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too much Wedding Day champers for the OP imo. Not sure about that. As i say, maybe just paper talk, it wouldn't be the weeg press if they didn't try to sh!tstir but over the years when Hearts have been linked to players they end up at the oldfirm. They moan about lack of competition but when another club gives them any sort of challenge they sign players just to pz others off, usuallly don't even play them. Oh and the wedding day champers comment...? No interest in it TV's been off all day and will stay off until there's a decent match to watch over the weekend.

Spot on,how big a team do some people think we are. If lennon wants Sutton it's because he rates him,not to stop us getting him ,FFS get a grip. Anyway it could and more than likely will be his agent doing a very good job of getting his player a cracking deal,he's 28 and this will probably be his last BIG contract.

Hmmm.... short memory eh? Naismith WAS approached by Hearts, a YEAR before he ended up there, as was Boyd, Barry Robson when he was at Utd before he went to Celtic, McDonald at M'well before HE ended up there, even Hibs were in for him back then, and even Kenny Miller when he was down South, quoted as saying he would not rule out a move to Tynecastle, remember reading it sitting outside the shop i bought the paper in. 5 enough for you?

So what your telling me is that Hearts were interested in all these players but the OF snapped them up from under our noses a season later,and didn't play much just so as we couldn't sign them,give me strength. All these players went on to have huge careers for the OF,THAT IS WHY THEY SIGNED THEM. PS I ment three that have had talks with us then went to the OF and sat on the bench for the reast of their time,just to pz us of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul_C Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 Usual paper sloblox. From what I read there were no direct quotes from Lennon, only a "source" saying that Sutton had been playing well this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is possibly why they had Garry O'Connor through there the other day (by all accounts). Papers will put information in which they think their readers will find interesting/worth commenting on, whether or not the information is correct is way down their list of priorities. If newspapers were only allowed to print facts very few of them would still be getting published. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a pity,the reason we suffer in these circumstances is that we usually ###### about,"waiting till the end off season" by then everyone is interested and were left banging our heads as to why they didn't sign for us,Barr and Black being the exeption to the rule but even then I doubt if any bigger clubs than Hearts were that interested in them.
