A season in Championship is so much better than a season on the bench at Celtic.

Flat Owl Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 If the boy is allowed to leave for nowt, and thereby failing to safeguard their most valuable assets [again], then it will reinforce my suspicion that people actually don't know what they are doing.

Chris Apolon Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 If I was a pro footballer at 19, just started to make inroads into my professional career, forget about the emotion attached to playing for your boyhood club I'd be looking at; Where am I going to play the most first team games Where is best for my development Where is best for me and my family Who is offering the most money Some of these we offer. Some of these Celtic do. Some of these other clubs may If any player chooses the latter category wouldn't matter if it is now or next season, said player is not a player who we should be building a team around although in some instances I along with others would hopefully understand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In League 1. What a time to be alive. At least parking won’t be an issue. Every cloud and all that.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's bot about the impact of losing him on the team for me. It's about the fact we have failed to tie down a promising youngster to a contract before now. There's something wrong if we're leaving ourselves open to this happening and it undermines everything about our youth set up and academy. In fact it renders it virtually pointless 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make them feel wanted and sort the contracts out then. I'm talking about the current set up. The players you mention were nurtured under the Ramsdale regime. Since he left the level of coaching has gone South and there's not many lads from U18's down who have been there since U10 level. Shaw, Penney and Hunt are very much the exception. As for giving them away for peanuts. Bad management. Hirst was bad management on one side and underhand on the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not my job to sort out contracts :S You need to pick your argument - your initial post said "Years of development? Really?" I outlined how our youth players have literally had years of development and you completely glossed over it to make a completely different point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashley8 Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 If he did go to Celtic then surely this should trigger an all out attempt to get Chansiri out. It would only further confirm a complete lack of ability to run the club. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RuncornOwl94 Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 This is an utter disgrace, just the 18366965th example of poorly this football club is run under Chansiri. It's really not hard is it, any prospects you believe are worthy of a professional contract show some faith in and offer a three year deal so this doesn't happen. Just look at Forest, securing Matty Cash to a long term contract so he left for 14 million. They've just done the same with Alex Mighten, 18 years old and starting week in week out, signed till June 2025 so keep an eye out on them getting another 15 million for him. And that d*ck head in charge wonders why we're in financial difficulty. ARGGHHH 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
