Cotter 0 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Putting aside all the other potential deals that have been reported, signing a 23yr old widely regarded as the best Scottish LB around for a fee of �£1m ish is great business. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

54andcounting 0 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Obviously we welcome all signings Ally makes, but Lee Wallace? For �£1.5M? Very unexpected.... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,148 Posted July 21, 2011 Author Share Posted July 21, 2011 Has Wallace signed? Nope but apparently only dependent on him passing the medical which, given his injury history, isn't 100% certain... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
calscot 0 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 I have to say I'm not overly fussed at this one and feel 1.5M is a bit over the top. I'd rather have seen us use some of the money to re sign Miller. I was like that before with a guy we signed from Hearts for 1.5M... wnt by the name of McCann. If Wallace has half the success Neil McCann did then he'll do ok for us. Papac would still be first choice at left back for me Go to disagree with you. Miller is almost 32, coming to the end of his career and will have no sell on fee. Lee Wallace is 23 and can only get better and will command at least a similar fee, if not more, if he leaves. Miller has bugger all transfer value which is why, on the best form of his career, we got 400k for him. Ok, he only had 6 months on his contract, but now he's older, not so on form, and so I don't think it makes a difference. If Cardiff pay more than about 600k for him, then they are complete mugs. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Dutchy Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 �£1.5 Million does seem a bit steep for a player in his last year of contract, but I doubt if Hearts were going to budge on this and that's what it has taken to give them no choice, for a player at the beginning of his career. Ally was obviously very keen on him, so we do at least go for the players that will make a diffirence, in the bosses mind anyway. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
