I’d have preferred to have seen the lad stuck around for another 18 months but looking very likely he’ll be away in a few weeks. I think he could well be sold too with mccrorie replacing him Link to comment

PondHopper Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 With Hedges, ramsey, and fergs all out you'd think the club could pay shinnie, slide mccrorie to rb, and bring in some decent cbs Link to comment

If they don't want to stump that up, no problem, he continues his development with us and goes on to show his worth further. My concern for him in the scenario is that he'd end up playing U23's for a season, which would be shite coming away from men's fitba. Don’t think he’s on a long enough deal for us to be playing hardball like that I’m afraid. We’d probably bite their hand off for £5 million Link to comment

If there’s at least 2 EPL clubs looking to get in a bidding war (even if one is a pretendy big club) then we should be setting £5m as the very minimum plus substantial add ons. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Everton coming after him properly also cos the Huns are going to fk them about with Patterson no doubt Link to comment

I think Cormack would bite at a bit less than £7m. This latest unnecessary farce with crowds not getting in for Dundee & SEVCO (at least), costing us £500k (at least), might lower his valuation a little. I think Cormack will hope for £5m with a few add ons. (20% sell on clause, a sum after “x” first team appearances, if he becomes a full international etc). Link to comment

To be fair, bringing through young players & flogging them for 7 figure fees, and re-investing in the team is part of what we should be about. Ideally we’d get a little more time with them in the team maybe, but if good offers come in, they have to be looked at. My concern, given Stephen Glass’s track record, would be who we re-invest in.

Aye. I'd have liked to have had Ramsay for a couple of years before he moved on but these rich clubs are vultures and they like to get them as young as they can. I just hope we reinvest in younger signings and don't blow the future on wages for guys in their late 20s and early 30s. Link to comment

alscotoz Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 4 million will definitely get the club's attention. It's the football world we exist in. Maybe wait until the summer? His value won't decrease, he might even force his way into Scotland squad, might add value... he's better than the huns guy. But if 6 million plus was offered now, I think you would have to offload. Hopefully goes to a club with a solid premiership history and not one fighting relegation all the time... for his sake. Sell on fee, of course. Link to comment

Mr Brightside Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 4 million. Ten percent of the profit from next sale. Another 200k if he gets 40 EPL appearances. maybe a loan back for the rest of the season? Link to comment

aberdeen1970 Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 Need to structure a deal where its more than just an add on for a future sale. The Ryan Fraser situation shows we need to hedge our bets a wee bit more. Also, if he goes directly to a big club it might be years before he moves on, if at all. A combination of first team appearances, becoming a full international and sell on would give us our best bet of getting a return post the initial fee 1 Link to comment
