jamiesd Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 Marshall really is well out of the picture. Surprised with Tims never went for him. Link to comment

Just find it a bit weird the modern fans obsession with selling players to make money Out of the "big 5" in Scotland we must be the worst for money made from selling players. It's the model we should be looking at as we can replace them at a fraction of the price from other spl teams if we improve our timing. Ie if we had sold Ferguson last summer for 3m we could have got Allan Campbell for what? 400k compensation? Then be repeating again in 2/3 years time. Link to comment
Singapore Steve Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 @minijc any truth in the rumor that Leigh Grifiths has signed ? Seeing some stuff on twitter. Link to comment
slippers Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 That may of been another piece of Info that was given by mini. But it wasn’t that he had signed it was that he was up in Aberdeen for talks. That’s why I asked yesterday if people would have him. Link to comment

Agreed but you want a number of years out of them first. Folk are on about how much we can get for Ramsay after he's played half a dozen games ? Link to comment

In our interest to hold onto our players as long as possible, as you say. Link to comment

New long deal on better bucks and we can sell him in 2-3 years once he's further progressed. Link to comment

I was quite keen when rumours emerged at end of last season but now I’m not so sure. Think 80% chance it’s a complete disaster and 20% chance it’s a big success. You would have to assume that Brown knows what kind of character he is. I have no doubt him getting out of his bubble would also be very good for him. Link to comment

Paterson still 2nd fiddle to Tavenier and played about 20 career games. And they are acting like 5m is a joke of an offer. Deluded cunts from fans to manager. Link to comment

He's likely only on squad/youth player wages, I don't think even Glass expected Ramsey to be as regular and as good as he has been! Get him on a better deal and if anyone comes knocking they can be told to fuck off unless they give us at least £10M (we don't need to sell him, so as high a price as possible!) Link to comment

That puts him at zero by January 2023 and negative value (e.g. Birmingham or new club paying him to leave football) in May 2023. Link to comment

Differnce was Ramsay has looked good since he got his deut vs Dumbarton and continued to impress,Cosgrove was rotten for a while and then found some form and turned to shit all within 12-18 months.
