Popular Post Negri's lovechild 14,411 Posted September 9, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 9, 2021 I would say that Wilson will be telling the truth about bids tbh. Title winning squad, players full of confidence, some real development over the last year in most of the squad. He isn't going to reveal bidders or the numbers offered, that would be absolutely foolhardy from him. He is letting us know that the speculation is nonsense and that we are committed as a club to retain the best players, and that they are committed to staying for the moment. glasgow argyle, AlbertzLoyalRSC, the blue plumber and 2 others 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WATP84JRL 1,087 Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 If Wilson says we rejected big bids for some of our players, I believes it to be true, Mr Gerrard said if the board got a bid they thought was acceptable he would here about it and they would have a decision to make, big bid doesn't mean they have met the asking price, glasgow argyle 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GersInCanada 7,775 Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Whether there were bids or inquiries is irrelevant. What is clear is that the board have a valuation for each of our players. It's a case of meet our valuation or go away. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Jela 20,655 Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Rather ambiguous tbh. £8 million could be considered big money, for example. We paid 'big money' for Kent. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Jela 20,655 Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Its quite a fucking leap to claim there's "little comminication" between the 2 because the board rejected a bid for a big name in the squad 2-3 or 4 hours before KO while we were in the shite form that we were in and the talk since last Christmas has been selling players. graeme_4 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was in the papers hours before the game. It will have been with Rangers long before that (most likely the day before at the very least). Do you think the Daily Mirror were reporting the bid minutes after it was apparently made? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
