George Hirst


Recommended Posts

Well if people would state facts then we could make our own minds up. All this I know but can’t say owt b0llox doesn’t do anyone any good. You’ve already let them down by announcing they’ve told you anyway so what’s to lose for anyone? Especially Kivo unless he’s best mates with David as well?

 

I have to say that at all the Hirstys Bar events I went to David Hirst never came over as someone who would bulls hit about anything atall. Ever

What is the point of all the speculation?

Lad wants to be treated fairly and doesn't feel this is the case.

Neither do his representatives.

 

What would you tell your lad, seriously; if he was doing a good job at work and got offered less than you thought he was worth.

Even if you take into account that you'd probably accept a bit less because he likes it there and are happy for him to prove himself over time and reap the benefits then?

What if taking that into account you still thought his employer was undervaluing him?

What would you advise?

 

Some of us may be happy with this and some may not, but to discredit him and someone else who both love this club is beyond the pail.

Some f00kers on here need to give their heads a wobble.

Just make sure that it doesn't rattle too much.

 

Nailed it. Differing views on playing him is one thing. Having a go and dishing out dog’s abuse is not Wednesday. Not what we are about.

Perhaps he shouldn’t be a di ck on Twitter then? Then people perhaps wouldn’t get wound up so much.

OK , let's try some speculative Maths.

 

We know Chelsea's - therefore the World's - top young guns are on £30 k per week.

 

We know 2nd tier clubs such as Everon and Leicester are interested so we've gotta assume that they'd offer around £20 k per week.

 

And their reported top valuation was £2 million. 

 

So, using this £20 k as a base, that would mean a 4 year contract for Hirsty now puts us at risk for some £4 million.   

 

Less his current valuation, means a £ 2 million total liability.

 

To me, this seems manageable when Celtic can sign him for free in 3 months.

 

Especially when compared to the upside of a top striker one day who can shoot us to glory, while increasing his value massively.

 

Am struggling to see the problem here, except maybe a clash of egos, as Hirsty may face career death in Scotland and couldn't hack abroad.

I can absolutely guarantee they wont be offering George Hirst in excess of £20,000 a week.

 

Yes England's top U21s are on £30k allegedly, but they're also out on loan at the likes of Watford in the Premiership.

Hirst wasn't even in the first England squad for U20s, hence why he was at Toulon! He's also never made a senior start. 

 

Holgate and Browning at Everton arent even on half of what you're claiming Hirst might get offered.

MIxed feelings on this.

 

Get the impression that our contract offer is derisory, but relative to what?

 

His U18/23 team mates here at the club seem OK with their offers.

 

Is he comparing himself to the youngsters of the Premier League he's played alongside?

 

They're playing at a higher level than him in terms of their Club's finances and possible Academy status.

 

The Toulon was a kind of England Youth B side. Not taking away from Hirst's achievements but he didn't make the Squad for the England U19. U20 or U21s who were all playing in bigger tournaments.

 

The group he was with were a mixture of age groups. Some will earn more than others, some further ahead in their development too.

 

It's been said, Brooks (for example) is 2 years older. 

 

So IF Hirst is holding out for a contract that's up there with players ahead of him, IMO he's been poorly advised.

 

But not knowing the offer and how it compares to players that are around his level/age group, it's hard to say.

 

We make some strange decisions off the pitch these days, so it's not hard to be skeptical about the Club's handling of this.

Mcgugan frozen out 

Hirst frozen out 

Forestieri refusing to play

Training ground bust up 

Winnall sent out on loan 

Rhodes on the bench ( after a cost of 8-10M)

No kit entering 3rd month of season

Losing 4-2 at home to your bitter rivals 

 

All is not well at S6 I'm afraid

No mate, you crack on. 

 

If jumping to conclusions, then using said conclusions to not only vilify one of the best prospects to come out of our Academy in years is your thing, and while youre at it, his Dad who over the years has done nothing but good for our club - nothing that I say will make you change your mind. You and the other numpties on here will carry on because its what you do - you're trolls, you don't like to believe that there is anybody out there that knows more than you do. 

 

It would be funny if it wasnt so tragic. I genuinely feel for you, and the others like you. 

 

Now where were we? Oh yeah - feckin Hirsty, wha a tw@/.

Bits of it are - yes.

 

But on the whole we are streets ahead of where we were 10 years ago
