Scott Allan

Pretty much begging to come back.

Do it Hibs

[Hermit Crab]

He is the one I'm most desperate to get signed up on a long term deal, Hibs have, and will continue to resurrect his career, we could get big money for him in a few season time if he keeps playing the way he is. I just think he's a such a talent and a joy to watch.

Lennon will get this sorted hopefully.

[rcarter1]

He is my favourite player, among a long list of favourite players. Total awesome if makes it back..

Yes I'm back a changed man.

Back to the point, get SA signed up asap, he wants to be here and we want him here, some players just fit with a club. SA is one of them.

[keep the faith]

The player I want to see most again next year. He seems to love the place too.

[Nicho87]

4 year deal. No more, no less.

A player that on his day is simply majestic.

Closest we can get to a latapy of this era.

Ridiculous really.

TAKING A HALLIDAY

Rangers ace Andy Halliday wanted by Hibs as Neil Lennon looks to replace Dylan McGeouch and Scott Allan . Could this be something to do with it ?

I’d still sing his song even if he was a Hibs player.

Please please please ****ing no

[BlackSheep]

Worst comes to worst can we not just sign him on a season long loan with a view to getting him for free at the end of his contract?

The only danger being if he plays a whole season like he has done since January for us then other suitors will come calling and we may miss out on a fee.

That’s what will happen imo.

There’s no real incentive for him to accept a large drop in his wages by agreeing to terminate his contract with Celtic to come to us.

Just do a Flo deal. One year loan with option to buy at the end of that. Easy.

That would be silly.Why would we want to pay Celtic a fee when he would be out of contract.Nothing like the Kamberi deal at all.

[WhileTheChief..]

Didn’t Rodgers already say that they would be easy to deal with as far as Allan is concerned?

I don’t see Celtic holding out for a large fee at all and think things will be sorted easily and quickly.

[Elephant Stone]

How is there no mention of any other clubs interested in Allan? I don't get it at all. If we could only keep one player out of McGinn, McGeouch and Allan I'd be inclined to keep Allan, he's something else.

So Celtic can't sell him to anyone else before his contract runs out?

Your proposal puts us exactly where we are now.... a loan with a fee at the end is the same as just paying the fee now.

Of course there is the unknown of whether we can afford it now or whether we may be able to afford it in a year, but ultimately it comes down to how much Celtic want for him.

[Smartie]

I don't think Halliday is that bad.

He looks to me like being a Rangers fan playing for Rangers in almost permanent crisis hangs quite heavily on him.

He's been hung out to dry by being played at LB and hooked early in games when the manager has set his team up all wrong.

I think he looks like he needs to go somewhere where he can enjoy playing football, a bit like Scott Allan.

And he'd certainly have a point to prove to a few people.

I'm not all that against the idea.

If we miss out on SA and sign Andy Halliday instead I will goad the wee prick mercilessly.

He’s bang average IMO.

[Captain Trips]

If we need to pay a fee the larger that is I think the longer the contract we need to offer and hope he accepts. I think he is in the 100k to 500k area hopefully the lower end of that but a player of his ability and how he has been while here, for me worth every penny. IMO I think Celtic will want about 250k.

The fact that he wants to sign for us is helpful. Celtic might get offered money by a league 1 side or somewhere abroad but if Scott doesn't want to go, he doesn't have to. Celtic will want money, so it will no doubt be a hard bargaining process between Petrie and Peter Lawwell...the immovable object being pressed by the irresistible force !

I just hope SJM isn't part of the bargaining process.

HOPE

SJM signs a new 3 year deal with a release clause so he can go if an English club come in for him for £3 million or above next year
SA signs and we pay maybe £200,000
Mallan comes in as replacement for Dylan
Kamberi deal is sorted quickly
Mc Larens club punt him about for a couple of months, but he turns down all offers and they end up having to sell him to us at a bargain price.
Barker: Man City feel that the best thing for his development is to loan him to us for another season.

One of my favourite players to watch in my time supporting Hibs. Such a natural footballer.

[Catch22]

If Halliday comes to ER, his new song should be. To the tune of Son of my father.
Oh Andy Halliday
You may have signed for us
But your still a cxxxx

[Tug Wilson]

The only place that Scott Allan has achieved close to his potential is at Hibs. Other teams will see that he fits in here. They may even be put off as they will be worried that they get the Scott Allan that played at Rotherham or Dundee. Whereas we know that we will be getting the one that plays for the mighty Hibees.

Being the devil's advocate here, surely that's a good reason Celtc won't want to sell him to us?

Might be some truth in this. SA has been around the houses and singularly failed wherever he's gone - except at Hibs. It would be a big gamble for most clubs (other than those with cash to burn, like Celtic) to take a chance on Scott, especially as he's openly said he want to be at Hibs.
