Gaz52 11,837 Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 If he is so good in Ally's eyes then he won't let him go for a penny less than we bought him for. He must surely now be worth more than we paid for him which was 2 or 3 million IIRC? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bombaybadboy08 15,660 Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 Which part do you think is spot on because you surely cant agree that players who are in the last year etc are not fully committed? Im pretty sure that the SPL's top scorer last season was in the last year of his contract and it didnt seem to effect his performances...Would you not agree that if it comes to the crunch(literally) they would pull out of tackles rather than pick up an injury?I certainly wouldn't go as far as saying not trying,can you remember Brian Laudrup in his last season with us?Miller was on fire when his future was in the balance,none of us know how it may have affected him mentally if he refused our contract offer and let him run his current one down.Rangers first and if folk don't want to stay get them out and get a fee in.

xaldub 161 Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 Whittaker's agent has said that Bursaspor have made a good financial offer - thing is how can they unless Rangers have given permission ? In other words they have probably tapped the player up. If this is the case then the club should contact UEFA.Also, the only reason Bursaspor are able to offer Whittaker a better wage, is because they plan to get him on the cheap. If they end up having to shell out £2 million for him I think he'll find the wages on offer won't be half as impressive as before ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cantona 6 Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 Dundee unt release statement about Goodwillie.Due to recent media speculation, Chairman Stephen Thompson has issued the following statement: "We have had no contact with Rangers FC since Monday 20th June and have not received a bid from them for David Goodwillie". http://www.dundeeunitedfc.co.uk/index.asp?tm=2&nid=3935 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
eastcoastbear 122 Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 Ran out of patience with Whittaker now. If we get an offer of 1.5 million take it. If not, he can train with the reserves and watch his final season with us on an internet stream. 20k per week is obviously not enough for him so doubtless he won't have Sky Sports.

Senna 735 Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 £1.5m and he can go. We've had £1m worth out of him. That penalty in Florence and his goalscoring two years ago were worth that alone to us. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

J...R 20 Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 I would rather get a decent fee for him and let him leave, but if we don't get a fee we want then let him play out the last year of his contract. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
