Smile 26,606 Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 I'd bite their hand of for a million quid never confident in his defending, good going forward though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirWalterSmithLegend 206 Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Good that we have rejected another bid, nice change. He is off, no doubt and its now upto us to play hard ball and get the fee we want.All the best Whitts. Oh aye, "while discussions with Steven Davis will begin shortly."1 year right enough, eh Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
deleteduser1 169 Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 The thread title is out of order for a player that has just helped us win 3IAR and played in a European final for the club. Get it changed Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
iain1712 336 Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Great bit of business so far mr whyte the fee is now £1m and set to climb. Compare this to what we let miller go for ! It certainly looks like the end of us getting the piss taken in the transfer Market. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingKirk 25,643 Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 I dont like the topic heading, why turn on a player like this just because he wants more money? fine sell him and move on, he has gave us good service over the years. lets not forget Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBagalag 721 Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 If this is the case that Whittaker has turned us down, I hope we get rid rather than see his contract run out. I think Bursa would be willing to go to £1.5m which I think is reasonable for him. No point having a player at the club who is no longer interested.

AGM_72 3,633 Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Disappointing. Thought more of Whittaker but he's in the same boat as Bougherra now, I suppose. Hold out for a fee closer to 2m and I would be very hesitant to allow him to play another game for Rangers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ForeverBlue_Since91 2,895 Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Sell him, i've wanted rid of him for a while. Shite defender, doesn't tackle anyone, and most of the time he gets the ball looks nervous as fuck.He's also quite slow for a young guy. But how confident are we that, McCoist will get a replacement in for him? considering we can't seem to sign a player. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

supermac 115 Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 We made Steven Whittaker he was a nobody and was/still is shit at defending. Darren Cole and Broadfoot it is! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broadfoot always seems to be injured. Whittaker was the only fit right back we had, so we just kept him there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterC 12,270 Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Sell him. If he stays fit, the Paisley Pele can take his place plus theres Darren Cole who looks a player. Get as much for him as we can and reinvest it elsewhere in the team. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jocky Broon 207 Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Over the piece the lad did quite well for us but if he wants to go let him but on our terms.We must have a valuation of him so we may as well tell Bursa this is the release price.Other Clubs do it to us so we should be doing the same.If they want him badly enough they will cough up.

kingbroadfooot 68 Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 We made Steven Whittaker he was a nobody and was/still is shit at defending.

KingKirk 25,643 Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 get as close as possible to 2million for him and use that plus 500k for the king Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
4MenHadADream 122 Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 We need to get rid of him now if this is the case. In my view we should never have given him a third offer after he turned down the second one. If we can get close to 2m then I won't be too gutted and we could get a better defender, but probably not as versatile a player for that amount of money.Would be quite happy if we went for Tom Hateley though.
