Tannochsidebear 2,330 Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 If Leipzig paid £13M for Burke, based on "potential" who had done very little with a struggling side in the most over-rated league in the world, then there is no way in hell we should be letting a full internationalist go for £6M to the same side. McKay has a much better CV than Burke did, so why should we even stop for a second to consider such a paltry bid? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
StuGers 477 Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 If we were to sell him, would that actually put us into the profit making scenario? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gribz 743 Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 Also interesting about the Tennis...I thought Djokovic was a banker for the Aussie open. Good chance for Murray now although Nadal and Federer are sneaking under the radar. Wawrinka is another who can beat anyone on his day and Tsonga is an outsider now that jock is out. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As TB says, if Burke was £6m then a full international with a side sitting second should be worth more. Personally I don't think we will get anywhere near double figures as our league is poor. We should hang on for another offer, if there really is one, of 7-8m. If his heads turned though and he wants away you might be tempted just to take them 6 and let him go? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Barristan Selmy 222 Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 Burke proved himself in a much stronger league than McKay. Plus it's not long ago McKay was widely being slated on here for his poor performances. I hope we can hold on to him for as long as possible, but he hasn't done anything to justify a big money transfer yet. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Barristan Selmy 222 Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 (edited) If Leipzig paid £13M for Burke, based on "potential" who had done very little with a struggling side in the most over-rated league in the world, then there is no way in hell we should be letting a full internationalist go for £6M to the same side. McKay has a much better CV than Burke did, so why should we even stop for a second to consider such a paltry bid? The Championship is overrated, but it's infinitely superior to Scottish football. I don't think McKay having a cap for Scotland means anything either. Players like Ross McCormack and Jordan Rhodes who have gone for big money and done very well in England have barely had a look in. Nobody cares whether Strachan picks a player or not in the grand scheme of things. Edited January 20, 2017 by Ser Barristan Selmy 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oleg_Mcnoleg 50 Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 £6m would be a great price, especially given the rumours of a £2m buy-out clause in his contract. It'll be a wrench but no way are we going to knock that sort of money back. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darthter 542 Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 Looking at the "bigger picture".....this is not a bad thing at all. Mainly from the viewpoint that it gets a valuation out into the ether from a reputable/sizable club. Anyone else doing a bit a research now will get hit with the £6m price tag - This is what Ceptic have been doing for years. Plus it also puts out to the wider audience that we do have some decent, talented player that are worth paying decent money for. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tragic stuff from Jackson. Ive seen an email from a source at the RBL which proves it to be total rubbish. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
