John Sutton

[5cotland 71]

Skysports.com understands that Hearts are leading the chase for Motherwell striker John Sutton this summer.

The 27-year-old was the club's joint-leading scorer in SPL action this term, but is out of contract during the close season.

Hearts are thought to be the front-runners for the striker's signature, although there is also significant interest from England.

Rangers are also thought to be in the running while Celtic boss Neil Lennon has previously labelled the striker as a 'good' player.

Sutton had put his future on hold until after Saturday's Scottish Cup final, a match that Stuart McCall's side lost 3-0 to Celtic.

I really hope we do not make a move for him. If we are looking at a striker, we need someone who will perform in Europe.

Not good enough for us. Celtic will sign him and put him in the reserves

[FlippinEck 2,850]

Scored a belter at Ibrox couple seasons back, not the kind of striker we need though.

[Jordo 33]

Hopefully not, we need alot better quality than him for Europe and the SPL.

No No No, he's not nearly as half as good as his brother.

[RFC55 85,324]

Hes chronic but Sky sports are as reliable as the daily star

[Amac9 2,060]

He's pish!

[Smile 24,815]

We will be linked with everyone just now whether we are interested or not.

[EastEnclosureBear 2,199]

No.

[ogbg 20]

I doubt Hearts would be considered front runners if we or Celtic were genuinely interested

[Irwin Sparkes 97]

Would rather keep Healy than sign any journeyman SPL striker

Goodwillie obviously doesn't count

[MayboleLoyal_atb 2,644]

He's pish

[Scott-RFC 280]

Hearts is about his level

[Jimbeamjunior 19,797]

No No No, he's not nearly as half as good as his brother.

his brother was a complete and utter unadulterated bawbag though

if i could take a swing at anycunt in the world he would be in my final 5 to choose from

I'm referring to Sutton of Blackburn not Sutton of Celtic.

At Celtic he was obviously a proper cunt!

Agreed.

Really liked him at Blackburn too. Never imagined how much I'd grow to loathe him.

[ForeverBlue_Since91 2,895]

I hope McCoist isn't going to do a lennon, and try and get anycunt.

[GlasgowsBlue 329]

Hope not .. he's not Rangers class

[Brian Fantana 28,891]

realistically we should not be aiming for any striker in the SPL, lafferty and naismith are better than any thing else they have to offer. We should be looking for another Jelavic for our european ambitions, we have the money to spend £4 million on one player and in terms of goal return it would be worth it.

[rfcfraserrfc 262]

Hell No

[SirWalterSmithLegend 206]

Can he score against Celtic?

[neilstonloyal 186]
