This does seem strange, hardly engaging him to his potential new fan base is it.

 

It seems they are telling their fans: "We did all we could to get him here, but he is a gready ba5tard. So don't blame usfor not signing him."

Yep, that's it plus if they don't get him, they don't want to appear un-ambitious to their fans. Blaming the player and agent, is an easy way to avoid criticism, when it looks like they can no longer afford or attract decent players?

Im just not fussy....

 

Blue and white blood, never say die attitude, my only criteria. Obviously, I’m taking it for granted they are professional footballers at some level. lol

What because Bannan, Fletcher and Wallace in recent years have been so bad for us?

Bannan, Fletcher and Wallace where proven players in English football that had Prem experience. 

Not just played in the pub league North of the border. 

That's the difference bud. 

We've had far more misses than hits as far as signing players from Scotland. 

"players like hinds, mcgovern, mccabe, Donnelly, o'donnel and of course the rock n roll Ronaldo Stevie May where league 1 standard does n here. 

Hence why people are reluctant to think players from Scotland will work.

This article is quite funny, it goes from saying

Sheffield Wednesday will sign Turnbull,

to actually Wednesday may be under a transfer embargo,

to we’ve basically read the Sun article,

to another journalist thinks he’s still going to Celtic

Just like the posts on here, just make it up as you along and try and cover as many bases as possible, so you can claim later that you got it right.

Either that, or it was an exciting story lasting all of 24hrs. 

Possibly his agents knowing we had interest and Bruce nabbing McGinn from under noses of Celtic last year so trying to force Celtics hand.

 

It would be nice to think we can wheeler deal this summer. think we need a few through door.

Don't know much about the player, but seems highly rated. I'm confident we can compete with Celtic on wages, but the fee and FFP may be an issue. 

 

That said £3m amortized over a 4 or 5 year contract for FFP purposes may be realistic. 

 

Just hope if it comes off he will be a McGinn type of signing and not a Rhys McCabe type. 

 

That said, sometimes it is necessary to take a calculated risk. If reported interest in this lad and Onomah is followed up, our midfield would start looking a lot stronger and we would own players with real potenrial to increase in value. 

 

 

 

Yeah, its admirable Celtic don't want to f**k up their wage structure..but we did that years ago, so we can complete for sure :laugh:
