Sander2006 50 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 When speaking to the Glasgow Evening Times, Vuckic explained:“I intend to return to Newcastle when my loan deal is finished and force my way into the team there next season. I still have a year left on my contract.“But that is for the future. Just now, I am a Rangers player and my job is to play well for the club and help them to win matches. That is what I will try to do.”Source: http://whatculture.com/sport/haris-vuckic-wants-to-fight-for-nufc-place-so-whys-he-at-rangers.php?

Smile 26,600 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Lets face it any player would rather play in a competitive strong League. Scottish football is in the shitter after pandering to one team and one team only. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Avenger 22,567 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 The guy must be shell shocked looking at what's around him, not to mention the shitholes of stadiums he needs to travel to up here.On saying that, if by some miracle we get promotion, I'm sure he would have his price to remain here.

andy500 463 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 If they get relegated he'll have a part to play probably. In the Premier League, he probably won't make it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sander2006 50 Posted May 5, 2015 Author Share Posted May 5, 2015 I expected this to be the case but I would have loved if we could have got a deal done for him. I think he had the potential to be a very good player for us, but instead he'll go back down to NU and be a fringe player at best. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BallochBear 1,613 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Don't blame him one bit, he's been a stand out since he arrived but he'll earn more, play with better players in a better league and in better stadia.I'd love him to stay but good luck to the lad if he goes back to Tyneside. If it doesn't work out for him down there I'd take him back in a flash. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
onefootwillie 1,518 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 I from what I have seen of him he is good enough for the top division here but I don't think he would make the EPL Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FSM 20,892 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 instead he'll go back down to NU and be a fringe player at best. But probably earning at least 5 times more money than what we could offer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canabear 4,558 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 He's a Pro Football player who's rights belong to Newcastle Utd. and he's quite right to look at this. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sander2006 50 Posted May 5, 2015 Author Share Posted May 5, 2015 But probably earning at least 5 times more money than what we could offer. Whats he currently on at the moment? I'd rather be paying Vukic 17k a week than Jig. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marky. 6,923 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 What a non-story.Of course he's going to say that. His intentions will be with Newcastle because that's who he is under contract with. He's not exactly going to say "next year I plan on playing for _____" when he's under contract there.If we put in an interest in keeping him on, he'd no doubt have something to think about, and then we'd understand more about his intentions.

A Gallant Pioneer 555 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Not good enough for us anyway, certainly not good enough for a team with any aspirations of winning back our title from Celtic. Will do for playing the likes of Livi and Alloa at Ibrox on sunny afternoons but not the Aberdeens or Dundee Utds on cold winter evenings away from home, no chance.

He'd quite easily help to build a league winning team. He's one of the best players in the country. Every time he cuts onto his left foot you know he's going to trouble the keeper. He's quality.

bears fan 259 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 I disagree, i think he would do well for us. Where we are, even if we get up, we are not going to attract world class players. Maybe in a year or two but now, no chance. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_r_sole 366 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 the guy is under contract with a premier league side - did anyone expect him to say that he didn't want to stay at newcastle and fight for his place there?We've not even offered him a deal Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
