Cerberus Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Even Glasgow’s public transport is filled with jakes and neds so I can’t imagine what it’d be like in Edinburgh.She’s wise avoiding it. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScarf Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 When a player leave a small club to join a bigger club in the same league for more money then the fans of the smaller club gurn at the lack of ambition from the player. When said bigger club are likely to get promoted and then the player will be playing in a shop window for clubs in England. It's obvious who I'm talking about in this case, but it happens in Scotland every summer. Just accept there are bigger clubs with more money than yours. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loads of others over the years.I do agree with the sentiment but shankland could really have gone directly to the premiership and gotten himself in the shop window this coming season. However, I always find it funny when punters throw out the lack of ambition comment about footballers when they have probably done very little of substance in their own life. Finally, could ICT start producing players worth stealing again, now we’ve lost Graeme shinnie you owe us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our board seem to have a raging 9 inch throbber for selling our players to County these days. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz FFC Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 It sucks to lose your best player but it sucks twice as much when he signs for an opponent and now you have to go up against him. The lack of ambition comment isn't fair as nobody knows what the bigger premiership clubs were offering wages wise. Just because a team is Premier League doesn't mean they're offering more in wages than a club the size of Utd. As a final comment the Premier League clubs who did look at Shankland may have told him he would be 4th choice where Utd may be telling him he's leading the line. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would imagine United offered more than most of the bottom six would/could in an attempt to convince him. Plus probably a hefty promotion bonus, assume more than any survival bonus from St Mirren etc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed, United must've been the club who ticked the most boxes for him given his current circumstances.
