Classy stuff to even mention another clubs, contracted player. Not long before he'll be appearing in a cup final. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like the kid, but I'm not sure I see St Johnstone getting £3m for him. £2m feels about right. I think Saints would take £2 million to be honest. The wild card might be whether we win the cup or not. If we do, we can probably hold out for more as that'll be worth £3million to us. I suspect he'll go this summer, he's had a lot of scouts looking at him and he's pretty well equipped to cope at a higher level. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm really intrigued to see where he ends up. Both of the OF are looking to rebuild their midfields this season, and the Brexit rule changes mean there could be a really strong market for him. The downside is the long-term effects of COVID on the market might make it harder to realise his value. I think the chances of him staying at St Johnstone must be pretty small. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I appreciate he's a totally different player but that type of player generally commands more money. I would say you will beat your transfer record for him but not by too much more unless a bidding war happens. The other thing is both Celtic and Rangers had been trying to sign Turnbull since he was 9 or something. They were well aware of him, he wasn't an unknown quantity that appeared from nowhere he'd been running the show in Dev league games against both for years. If anything his breakthrough season in our first team just confirmed what Celtic already knew about him.

About 80% of our team won’t be here next season either so places are up for grabs. 12 minutes ago, gannonball said: Given Eddie Howe appears to be imminent and our track record of developing players for the EPL I think we would be a pull for any player in Scotland.

He’s been out of work for 12 months now with no interest from the EPL so can’t see that changing now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy. Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 Decided the B team beating Hibs wasn't enough, so chuck the C side at Celtic. Humping inbound and we find ourselves finishing 6th and losing the Final, covid to destroy our season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen some mentions of it on Twitter, but nothing concrete. It's either the case that Clark, Gordon, McCann and O'Halloran have all picked up injuries in the last three days or there have been further positive tests. Honestly, I'd say that the latter sounds more likely. Edited May 12, 2021 by The Real Saints 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDoddyKane Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 2 hours ago, Widge said: I see this bit in bold and laugh, as Rangers fans think the exact same thing. Saints are going to be looking for 2-3million if not more based on 2 immaculate seasons in the top flight, he's now got 4/5 international caps and isn't even 22 yet. The benchmark figure is Turnbull for 3million based on 1 great top flight season and nothing else. Id rather Celtic paid decent money to Scottish clubs for players than spending it on quite often dross from europe. We missed out on Mcginn because we were so tight in offering money to Hibs yet we paid 3 and 4 million for Bolingoli and Klimala. The other plus point is that the money stays within our domestic league 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zamora Fan Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 5 players on the bench and 3 of them are youth players hahaha. If Celtic don’t find a way to hump us here they should fold as a club 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea about the bubbles. Could be similar to last week's situation where two tested positive and the other two were closest to them on club transport. This is just pure speculation. Hopefully they've just got minor knocks and nothing to worry about. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gutted but think it means those missing today will be able to play in the Final? Finger math has 10 days, including today, meaning they'll be back for the 22nd. Not ideal though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
