WEST HAM have joined the £2million race to sign Stevie Naismith


Recommended Posts

WEST HAM have joined the £2million race to sign Stevie Naismith.

 

Hammers boss Sam Allardyce has started reshaping his squad for their return to the English Premier League.

 

And heâ??s determined to pip Everton and West Brom to the Scotland star.

 

We told last month how the Baggies had bids rejected by the administration-hit Ibrox side for Naisy who is nearing fitness again after snapping his cruciate in October.

 

Goodison gaffer David Moyes is also a huge admirer but Upton Park boss Big Sam could steal a march on their Premier League rivals by slapping in an offer that would trigger the 25-year-oldâ??s £2m release clause.

 

That figure was inserted into Naismithâ??s deal when he and other top Gers earners took a 75 per cent cut to their wages in a bid to keep the ailing club going until the end of the season.

 

Salaries are due to return to normal when they are paid out later this month. Would-be owner Charles Green has claimed it would be his mission to renegotiate deals to keep his top stars.

 

But time is fast running out with creditors having two weeks to agree to a CVA with the 28-day cooling off period up on July 14.

 

Ironically, Naismith could team up with Norwich striker Grant Holt after the Hammers were linked with a £4m move at the weekend.

 

But both could have been team-mates at Ibrox if Ally McCoistâ??s cut-price January deadline day bid had been accepted.

 

Now the pair could be sharing a dressing room in East London if the Hammers can piece together a package to tempt Naismith away from Ibrox.

Why's time running out fast? Everyone, from top to bottom at Ibrox knows this. Everyone also knows that the transfer window is open till the end of August. There is nothing that can accelerate the course of events, so why whipping up this "time runs out" stuff? Sure, Green could try and talk to the players and maybe he already has done so. But any binding agreement is only possible after the CVA has been agreed and the club is fully in the new owner's/-s' hands. Full stop.

They are trying their hardest to whip our fans into a frenzy and split our support even more.

The usual press pish come transfer window Rangers to sell their best players for peanuts, while the Mhanks don't need to sell and if they do it's 10mill a player.

 

It's getting tiresome.

Indeed, we have been here before, twice annually actually. Shame on any Bear who buys the rhags.
