strar8 55 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 I tried telling you all this a few weeks back if you remember. A hot blonde in my work who knows Mrs Miller told me he was off in Jan.Like what usually happens unless your in the clique, i got abused for sharing the info. (The only time i have actually had anything to share!)Cheers fellow bears.WATPOn him leaving - my theory is this, Kenny Miller would not have scored 35+ goals in a season. He is not good enough for that, therefore imo his goals would have dried up anyway.I like Miller, i think hes improved greatly, particularly his movement but we will live on. We have replaced far better players than him.Trust in Walter to deliver the title.Exactly Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarcheVinny 1,003 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 If there had been another offer, someone would have leaked it, everything gets leaked at our club. And i cant see any club starting there bidding under 700k for a striker so hot on form. Would you be surprised if we accepted the first offer because i wouldnt?700k is embarrassing.yeah theres no doubt its embarrassing. just very rare for clubs to accept a first offer. but i suppose it isnt a 'club' accepting an offer.

SirWalterSmithLegend 206 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 yeah theres no doubt its embarrassing. just very rare for clubs to accept a first offer. but i suppose it isnt a 'club' accepting an offer. Lloyds wankwe dont know who accepted it, thats the problem, one day the club are on talking terms with the bank, all hunky dory, debts being repaid, we start the season great, look good in Europe, sit top of the table then by the next transfer window all has changed, the bank have retaken control and we have zero money to buy anyone, despite 2 years of profits, and incredibly and embarrassingly no wages to offer anyone. Im not one for conspiracy theories, ok i am, but, i think the bank, or someone at the bank are doing this on purpose. Its obvious they want to make it as hard as possible for us to be successful this year, why? Well one can only guess, i was under the impression the T*rrier who was in control of our account at Lloyds was gone in the summer, i just wonder who took his job! I dont blame Lloyds as i dont know what they are doing for a fact, but i do know what Bain and Mutrray have done in the past and the facts are there that they have both mismanaged and neglected our name, brand, club, supporters and team. They both should be hounded out the club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ForeverBlue_Since91 2,895 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 well we could get a sell on clause on his contract should we go for him as well as using andy webster as part of the deal, i have lost all patience with him and i dont feel he should play for us, he would be better at utd, he has had sucess and obviously gets on with peter houston. i dont like that stephen thomson is holding us to ransom for david goodwillie.WATP Rangers have put a bid in of t £750.000 Why would they sell him for that price?.

Clemdog 39,389 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 I can't see Webster being used as part of the deal. Our squad is too thin, however if Walter does it will show how much he wants Goodwillie/Has given up on Webster. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirWalterSmithLegend 206 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Houston can go take a run and jump, he a bitter taig, from Shettlestoun is it, im sure. That prick will be trying to bleed every last pound out of our arsehole of a chief executive.At any other team Webster would be worth at least a million! Offer him plus £500k and be done with them. Im sure Davids got friends at Rangers, get him to demand a move to Rangers and go public. That will soon sort out Dundee Hibernians Houstona nd Thompson!

RossS1873 1,844 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Rangers have put a bid in of t £750.000 Why would they sell him for that price?.im not saying that, we could use that money from the miller transfer plus the 750000 that seems to have came from nowhere as well as webster as part of the deal, if theres a sell on clause in the contract then it could be more tempting, if he moves to another club then dundee get part of the transfer fee,this is all theoretical, im not saying this will happen.

BlueSuedeSambas 54,874 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Rangers have put a bid in of t £750.000 Why would they sell him for that price?.How many times are you going to bring this up?No businessman is going to fire in with a bid that matches the asking price as an opening offer.It's called testing the water and it's common practice in all forms of business.

bluepeter 5,627 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Look on the bright side, all the supporters who have refused to go since Miller signed will now return to Ibrox and the money they provide will get us out of our financial problems Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulRFC1 115 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Im confident we will up the bid to a million and bring Goodwillie to the Rangers.Would be a magnificent signing, get him on a 5 year deal too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSuedeSambas 54,874 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 And how many times does it need to be mentioned that Dundee Utd are in a bad financial position too?There's no chance they are going to turn down an offer of a million quid for any player just because the bid is from us. Even their manager talked about a bid of a million plus add ons being enough.We've brought in 600k today with the potential for another 500k in the Summer while clearing somewhere between 4/500k from the wage bill over the next six months. That leaves us 1 million to play with in January, the possibility of another 500k add ons in May as well as the possible option of Webster, Fleck or Little going to Tannadice for the second half of the campaign.Anybody who thinks that we cannot finance this deal by selling Miller hasn't sat down and actually thought about it.

They say they want 1.2 million. We come back with a counter offer of 900k. They say how about 850k plus Little/Fleck/Webster for half a season.Deal get's agreed after a bit of back and forth.It's a perfectly fine opening offer and anybody who thinks it's not is just looking for a way to slate Bain, Murray, Smith and the banks.
