Boyle

[Last Minute]

Are we going to lose Martin Boyle. He is in his prime and his last year of his contract. Why is there nothing from Hibs or Martin that talks are happening. It would be a crime to let him run down his contract and walk for free. Anybody heard anything on this at all.

Certainty that we have tried to get him to sign but you can’t make him do that. Don’t think there is anything for anyone to say.

If Boyle helps us qualify for Europe and win one of the four competitions we’re in, then I would rather that than lose him for half a million quid or something.

[allezsauzee]

Given his importance to us at the moment, I'd say it would be more of a crime to sell him for peanuts. I'd much rather we kept him for the season. If his heart is set on a move to England or pick up a bigger wage at Celtic then he's not going to sign another deal. We got him for little or nothing and have had brilliant service from him. I'd bear him no ill will if he wanted to move on, we've had our money's worth from Boyler.

There isn’t much incentive for Boyle to sign a new deal. He’s likely to go to the Copa America in the summer and be in the shop window.

Hibs will have done their best to get him to extend but if it’s not happening, we’re not exactly gonna announce it.

Have we extended any players contract during lockdown?

He’s away then

Take Boyle out the team and I'd suggest we'll lose a good 12-15 points over the course of a season. Possibly an earlier knockout in a cup round. No coincidence we had an upturn in form when he returned from injury last season. I'd rather keep him and enjoy him while we can rather than sell him for a paltry sum in Janaury...

If I was him I would do my best for the club that rescued me from not getting a game at Dundee, developing him into the player he is. Wave cheerio as you get the big money move that you deserve.

[The 90+2]

We need to offer him a big contract then publicly announce we have. That keeps the support on side. He knocks it back then no hard feelings I suppose but the club need to show the support we’ve tried everything.

Whatever happens we have to keep him till January for Scottish cup glory.

You would have to think yes if he keeps up that goal scoring form from Saturday

It would t surprise me at all to see him going to Celtic for an undisclosed fee and Sparky coming on loan the other way as part of the deal,

They’re signing about 600 forwards and have Forrest at the peak of his career. I would take it though mind you 😁

That was the rumour I heard was going to happen last January window, but got canned possibly due to Griffiths coming back into favour. Lennon is a huge admirer of Boyle.

[Liam6270]

After the way Hibs have stood by him through his injuries good hope he maybe show a bit of loyalty, am I being naive?

Unfortunately so mate.

[oneone73]

He's been with us five years. We've had great service from him.

He’s had great service from us more so.

[Mcpakeisgod]

Gutted if he goes but he’s gave us some moments . He’s got a young family so no hard feelings if he wants to make some serious cash . One last season would do for me

Very :greengrin

[Booked4Being-Ugly]

He was interviewed last time his contract was renewed and he said he wanted to sign an extension then to show his appreciation for what Hibs done for him.

I knew at that point it would be unlikely he’d sign another if he kept improving.

In what way did we stand by him?

Martin has a young family and no doubt has worked out that if he is going to make a move that sets him up for after football, then his next contract will be it.

I'll be sorry to see him go, but there are a lot of players with less ability running about who are probably on 5 or 6 times the money he's getting just now, so I don't think we can blame him if he moves.

He'll also be aware after a couple of major injuries, that football is a fleeting occupation that can be ended by a solitary tackle.

He has served us well, and if he does go, he'll undoubtedly go with nearly everyone's best wishes.

Maybe we should offer him an extended contract with a good initial signing fee upfront and a much better wage - but with a release clause set at a good transfer fee and promise to be accommodating with him around transfers at the end of next Summer's international tournament. He's that worth it to us the moment. If we lose him or let him go for peanuts, we couldn't get someone else in of that quality for anything like the extra that keeping him a little longer on those terms would cost us. It's an absolute must that he plays for us in the Scottish Cup semi later this year.

I agree 100%

Boyle has delivered for us as much as we have for him I think. As disappointed as I'll be, I don't begrudge him moving on for some more £.

He's one of the most exciting players I've seen play for Hibs and it's a shame it could end with a small or no fee. Unless someone comes in with something silly I hope we wait until January - gives us a stab at the SC20, LC, and start of the league campaign. If things are going well forget the money and keep Boyle until his contract is over.

If I was his agent I’d tell him to put the hibs offer aside ( I don’t think they haven’t been talking about one ) until any deadline day & if any other offer from other clubs comes in weigh them up

He knocks it back then no hard feelings I suppose but the club need to show the support we’ve tried everything.The only problem with offering a bumper deal may unsettle the other players. If the others are still on pay cuts and Martin gets a lot more then there will be an atmosphere. One which could be costly regarding performances

This.. if true he has already shown his loyalty, why some on here think he has to do it again :confused:

Also gets some fans on his back if he doesn't accept it.

IMO offer him a year or two extension, £2k-£3k/week pay rise and a modest release clause (say £1m plus 15% of next sale).

If he takes it he takes it, if not then hold on.

[J-C]

Maybe Celtics poor show today may see them making a move for Boyle.

Boyle doesn’t owe us anything.

M B has put all his game together now and it’s great for Himself and Hibs wouldn’t grudge him a move I’ve a feeling Lennon will fancy signing him it’s unbelievable Mcleish overlooked MB

Sadly it's completely believable that McLeish overlooked him. Australia's gain was an absolutely huge loss for Scotland....

Indeed. It’s been a huge pleasure watching boyler and he has Improved beyond recognition. He’s been a fantastic servant to the club and who can forget his goal v Livi. Good luck wherever you go. He deserves better than being questioned for looking after his family which we would all do if truth be told. I’d rather he stayed till at least January and if he leaves for free so be it. In these times when we couldn’t possibly replace his quality I’d rather have him for this season.

[mjhibby]

I’m sure Lennon will be thinking along those lines. Will Jack Ross want the hassle of Leigh. If he can get Griffiths fit and firing then we couldn’t buy that so I’d take the gamble.
