Yeah, surprised me too! Contract until 2026. So I think a loan could be a good option. It allows us to see how he does and if well, it's a win/win. If he doesn't then at least we know if he has a future here or not. 

 

When was the last time that we sent someone on loan, who then came back and made the team stronger? 

McGregor, c2006?

A - Use him.

 

B - Sell him.

 

C - Loan with obligation to buy. 

 

D - Loan with option to buy. 

 

E - Loan with nothing. 

 

F - Let him rot in the B-team.

 

G - Release him. 

 

Personally, I'm A. However, if the manager doesn't want to use him, then it should be B, then C or D with fines if they decide against. 

 

E is stupid. IMO.

Genuine question  - what category does Lowry fall into? I'm assuming it's the same as Hagi but could be wrong

 

[Tannochsidebear 2,405]

As regards Hagi, a 6 month loan will probably be sufficient to see the back of Beale and then a new manager will hopefully see the talent there and not be so pig-headed and egotistical and just use Hagi properly.

So you are hoping we fail just to get Hagi back in the squad. Wow....

Lowry is a youngster. These categories don't apply. He needs games but is not good enough to get them here. He'll only qualify for these categories - they're just off the top of my head; they're not gospel - when he's 23, which is how Sir Alex Ferguson thought. 

 

Hagi is 25 next month. He's good enough. Manager clearly doesn't want him.

Not at all, i'm hoping we win every game, come third in the CL group stages and win the league and domestic cups. But under Beale I am expecting failure, and so I dont want to lose someone I value as one of our better players who is contracted for another 3 years and IMO could do us a very good job because this manager's ego gets in the way when i personally dont believe he will be manager past Xmas. Of course the way Brenda is going across the road may well mean Beale gets more leeway. 2 wins in the next week and I will be having massive amounts of humble pie, with a huge grin on my face!

Was Charlie Adam's loan to St Mirren further back than McGregor? Says a lot if those two were the last successful ones!

Don't have an issue with Hagi going on loan. If he smashes it we can either sell or recall him. Win/win
