He’s as good as frimpong and ajer who both left Celtic for over 10 million. We will get no where near that but should be getting over 5 million id say 7 million maybe even higher I honestly can't see us getting more than £4m for him. The fact Watford apparently tested the water with just £2m suggests it'll end up being somewhere between £2-4m (probably £3m). He is significantly better than Cosgrove, and also McKenna, so we should be holding out for £3-4m with sell on clause and everything else you'd expect these days. The main thing counting against him is that he hasn't got a Scotland cap yet. If he hangs around for the rest of this season, scores double figures again, catches the eye in big games, and bags a Scotland cap, then we might be looking at £5m+ Link to comment

Villa may even come in for him now what a bargain It's crazy, but that's the way it is. £4m to clubs in Scotland is probably the equivalent of about £50m to a club in England when you take into account TV and sponsorship money etc. To clubs like us £4m makes a big difference - no English team will offer £10m when they know we'll accept less. If they can't get players like Ferguson for £3-4m they'll just move on and buy elsewhere. Link to comment

With all the games he’s been excellent in I think it should be starting at at least 5 million. Watford were just taking the piss, you could see that with also the bid they put in for the boy at hibs.

Hoofball Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Let’s be truthful here, Watford are trying to be penny pinching chancers and think teams in Scotland will sell for any price and be grateful for the pittance they offer. If I was Ferguson I’d get my head down like he seems to be doing and trying to attract the attention of better teams than Watford yo-yoing between EPL and championship Link to comment

Regardless, we really do need more backup, we're threadbare at the moment and between injuries and covid, we are only a couple of players out away from being a disaster. Cormack said at half-time last week they’re working on more deals. Link to comment

ThomohawkKid Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Hearing rumours of Blackburn wanting Hedges, best business we could do just now is get him a new deal. Based on last year gee him 5/6k like the biggest earners as we’d miss him a lot!! Link to comment

Based on last year gee him 5/6k like the biggest earners as we’d miss him a lot!! If they did want him what money would you accept? It's difficult with only 12 months left on his contract. I'd still be looking for around £1m in all honesty. He's the most creative player in the team and we have no-one that can replace him. Not even sure there's a player in Scotland you could replace him with. Mowbray would have his work cut out there that's for sure. Link to comment
Ten Caat Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 A million for Hedges wouldn't be such a bad outcome tbh. We could then offer Hibs the reported £500k min release fee for Boyle. Not exactly like for like but he'd surely bring us more goals over a season than Hedges would. I honestly think there's a very good reason that the interest in Hedges is coming from Blackburn, as opposed to the likes of Burnley or even a top end Championship club. One footed players are ten a penny.......he just isn't absolutely top drawer and so I'm sure he is certainly replaceable with someone of similar quality. Mowbray must know of such players in the EFL Link to comment

You’d think McGeouch & Kennedy would be “available”. There’s also a decent chance Fergie goes. Potentially a large fee & about £8k-£9k per week in wages to play with if those three are away.

Both McGeouch and Kennedy are available as you say. We need to get rid of the 'surplus' in the team. That's the likes of Kennedy and McGeouch, probably Ojo as well despite him impressing the management team. Cormack mentioned in the podcast with Spiers that our wage budget is higher already than last season. We need to lose the dead weight to get players in who will improve the starting eleven. 1 Link to comment
