Reallondonowl Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Think it's more to do with Hirst senior wanting to get a big move for George and D.C. thinking otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wakefield owl Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 As ever it is very likely to be all about money. Perhaps we should remember that David Hirst played before the real big money came into the game and he now sees an opportunity to grab a piece of it. He knows from his own experiences that young George his only an injury away from that opportunity disappearing and therefore he is trying to secure a (relatively) big money contract now. We may not like it but I suspect a lot of us would try to do the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnajoe Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Let's be clear, David never has been and never will be a supporter. His match day role consisted of him floating from box to box nailing booze. He never watches one minute of the game, the last corporate game I went to he upset one of our group with his 'I couldn't give a bobbar I'm only here cos they pay me' line. He was my boyhood hero, and still is but he never was a fan. That's the top and bottom of it. Have no doubt if a chance came to move George on and significantly increase his income David would not think twice about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alan48 Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Both he and George watched the Hudds away game together - I know 'cos I was sat behind him and spoke to him before and after the game in the Ray Wilson lounge . You may be right about wanting the best for his lad though - any body would . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pachyderm Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Shame that but let's just hope that George doesn't follow him out of the door, wish Dave all the best in his future endeavours my thoughts exactly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pachyderm Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Well, George is under contract, and he doesn't have the player power to force a move, so I'm choosing not to stress about it. And, like I say, I think it's perfectly legitimate for David to work to maximise George's interests - and it makes sense for him not to be conflicted in that by also working for the club. Basically, I don't think anybody is doing anything wrong. good point... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a dig because he doesn't have to be so lets not claim that he is one. Legend on the pitch though, off it i'm not so sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
attyjake Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 If chansiri lets G Hirst go to ANY other club it will be the stoopidist mistake since letting the legend ERIC CANTONA go to scumland cos tricky trev never saw him play on grass. DOH! Our club which we love is sadly the biggest joke in the championship and something needs to be done FAST! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shetland Owl Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 Once he is out of contract he will be free to leave, we have offered him a new contract recently and turned that down. What else can the club do, they can only do so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. It will sort the men from the boys one way or the other. One or other party will get the message. Either he's worth the money and we stump up, or he realises he "isn't all that" just yet, and maybe backs down a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
