Do I want to win anything? stupid question. Is it all about money? that's an unbelievable offer imo and must be grabbed (see players above for value to be had) 3rd one fantasy. For a Scottish club to get anywhere near the group stages is getting even more difficult, how many times have we done it even with our box office players? I like the wee man but ffs get real 11m is mental. (if true) Did the scum we all claim aren’t that far ahead not just do that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

First time in memory we have found a hidden gem and lucked on a treasure chest. But we have to believe we can do it year after year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If buying 3 or 4 £3m players as a replacement gives us that then fair enough but i wouldn't be rushing him out the door. In a ideal world mate you are bang on i'd normally always agree - fucking frustratingly where we are now.........its a serious cash injection. I think he is tremendous for what its worth and we have been right to hold out. If that bid is legit though it has to be considered. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

graeme_4 34,527 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 I really like him, but £11m in full is a ridiculous offer. Fair play to Allen / board if they drive it further up the way - I don’t think I could say no to it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MK Dumfries 94 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 We'd get shafted by other clubs in the summer if we sold a player for 11 million now. Docherty would have cost double as would Murphy if he'd gone at the start of January Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If these bids were coming from the EPL or Championship I’d agree, but they’re not. They’re coming from some mad Chinese mob who (as stated by another poster) are throwing money around like confetti, for whatever reason. If he was comfortably worth anywhere near £11m then we’d have a bidding war, but we don’t. It’s crazy money, which we may not get offered again, and we should grab it and run, and use it to build.

DrLaudrup 4,606 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 If we were going to sell him for financial reasons we should have done it in the window when we could put the money back into the squad. We can still sell him at the end of the season for similar or more money (unless he gets injured) which is what will probably happen. He is far from the finished article but is clearly a good player who is only going to get better. Because of that it makes zero sense to sell him now as 1) we need him for football reasons (which is why we didn't sell him originally) due to trying to get second place or higher and 2) we can't replace him until the end of the season. Therefore if he were to be sold now Murty would be entitled to ask some serious questions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All day long this could be the difference next season and who knows, even an extended run in the Europa league courtesy of his goals could see us coin back this supposed fee fuck them all.

Makes a change from the arse raping we have had on transfer fees, even pre 2012 we were a fucking riddy for it get these cunts to fuck. 20m or fuck off Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clemdog 39,389 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 I hope the Club understand exactly what he's thinking about these bids. Because if we know he doesn't really want to go to China (which could be understandable if he dreams of playing in the EPL), then we could push them for stupid money before accepting a bid. I'll be completely honest and would be gutted if we lost him, even if it was for £10Million or more. I think he's a cracking prospect who plays a massive part in the rest of our Season. I can't see bids like these not being made in the Summer if he stays, so we should try our all to stop him leaving. Which right now the Club seem to be doing.
