So Celtic are even worse than County as they've lost 3 players below their value because they couldn't extend their deals? Thanks for clarifying. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had a year left and about 4 times the player Ross is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a ross county thread if you want to discuss Celtic then we can do that in a Celtic thread. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he should have been signed up for another two years, you're not following this, are you? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had a release clause. We could have valued him at 250m and still only got what we got. We just totally underestimated how bad Caley were going to be that season. If you went to every Caley game that season the person scoring the most goals out of all them games would have been Liam Boyce with ten. I miss Liam Boyce. If we knew that we would have made the release clause £25m. Edited February 1, 2021 by Loki 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiG Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Is Boyce not (one of) the top scorers in Highland Derbys thanks solely to that one season where we scored about 8 goals against us? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 He scored ten goals that season as you well know. I remember your tears. Scored a hat trick, a double, a single and then four. I think he scored one other to make 11 in total. id imagine Iain Stewart is the highest scorer in Highland Derbies but that’s just a total guess. Wyness must be up there too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The club didn't protect itself and didn't realize the true value of a player like Boyce this is the same problem with Stewart. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he played for Hearts last season in the final game of the curtailed season , you would have thought he was a different player ! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See, this is where football clubs are missing a trick. If I was a rich club owner, I'd be conducting all of my contract negotiations on my luxury yacht out in the middle of the sea. Guarantee you that you'd get better results. Because of the implication. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think about it: the player's out in the middle of nowhere with some chairman he barely knows. You know, he looks around and what does he see? Nothin' but open ocean. "Ahh, there's nowhere for me to run. What am I gonna do, say 'no' to this five year deal?" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
