Lord Snooty Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 The thing is, Shaw is actually a first team squad member and proved quite useful. It can be argued of course there are better players out there. But they cost money. And... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TINGLE75 Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Good luck to him. I really hope he makes it big. Very rarely players we buy or develop can make it. Joao being the main and most recent example. The problem with us is we fail to get value from them to move us on. To let a young players contract run down like that is scandalous.

We offered him a deal, Celtic have offered him a better one. I fail to see how this is unprofessional. People are butthurt because we might be losing a decent prospect, but it's hardly unusual in football and we aren't the only club in this situation. The fee will be 300k. If he doesn’t move by the time he’s 23 we don’t get anything. His potential could be worth millions. To avoid this happen well run clubs make sure he’s in contract when he gets promoted to the first team to ensure this kind of thing doesn’t happen. We’ve failed yet again. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Judas Atkinson Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 I hope the lad does well. The club have clearly underestimated him and misjudged his potential. However he could have been a hero at his home town club and it looks like he has chosen not to be. I do have some criticism of him, he could have signed and allowed the club who invested time and energy into him for over a decade to get a fair fee. Eze did this and will therefore always be a hero at QPR, he also won’t have burnt his boats with them if it all goes wrong at Palace. Likewise it was only a few weeks ago Shaw said playing for Wednesday was a dream come true, clearly Celtic is a bigger dream come true. I also assume he feels this is the point of his maximum bargaining power. I take this all back if we haven’t offered him a contract or if it is clearly derisory. Hope we get Ciaran Brennan signed up soon. I hope Shaw decides to stay with Wednesday. I know this won’t be a popular view. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be astonished if he was allowed to play again for us, should he sign a deal elsewhere. Good luck to the lad I say and hope he gets himself out of here and makes a career for himself.

It’s become very apparent why they made the decision they did - and whether George goes on to fulfil his potential he definitely did the right thing by getting out.

We've seen far more from Shaw than we ever did Hirst. I side with DC on the Hirst issue, however I am not really sure what's happening on this one I sense that Chansiri is more to blame. Us losing Shaw is not justification that Chansiri was wrong on Hirst... 2 different situations. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Calx Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Good luck to him. I genuinely hope he goes onto great things. We're an absolute shambles of a club. I don't blame him one bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's a pre-contract agreement then it's a transfer, they would have to go to a tribunal if it's just a case of signing him on contract expiry. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
