Ryan Hedges

[Byrne Baby Byrne]

He was decent enough for us but you have to say that is a cracking move for him isnt it. Sitting in an automatic play off place for the EPL. 

He was nowhere near as effective as (original) McGinn and probably not as effective as Pawlett or GMS either but there was no sign of top level Championship interest for those wee cunts.

Tbf to Hedges though. Take a look at his timing with us & the decline of quality around him. He was here in the real downward spiral of Mcinnes’s time & the subsequent replacement by an absolute joke/amateur/pretender. 
 

Hedges with decent players around him being managed by a competent manager will be a lot better than the Hedges we experienced for most part. When fit of course ?

Subs are no use

Another zinger shooftah. You just keep knocking them out the park.

Why were you surprised at £200k?

There were some on here reckoning we should be asking £500k plus to let him go. Totally unrealistic with 5 months to go on his contract...only 3 and a half of which he would actually have been playing for

I'm still of the opinion that we shouldn't have let him go as our squad is so thin but he quite obviously wanted to be at Blackburn and there was obviously a risk he might not try a leg had we forced him to stay....the club has done the pragmatic thing and taken a realistic fee when you look at it as £50k for each of the 4 months (rounded upwards)  he would have continued to play for us

Fair doos, I didnt realise he was on such a short remaining contract.

(I didnt think we get megabucks for him regardless, but I did think nearer 1/2 million)

So that's us down to 9th. So i guess that's the £200k we got for him now wiped out by reduction in prize money.

Maybe not. Only 4 points of 4th with a game in hand

He’d have likely made little difference in the games since he left anyway
