All hypotheticals, but a potentially more lucrative sell-on down south v Celtic offer, so could balance itself out.

All hypothetical, as you said.

What gets me is Burrows tweet about how the clubs have been working for weeks to sort out a deal. Did anyone consult with David prior to the publication of the fee agreed comment from the club. Not blaming Burrows before people jump on me just curious

Whats the betting Uncle Peter moved the goalposts on his personal terms as he could smell a bonus in there for himself somehow.

If he doesn't join Celtic are we happy selling him for less to someone else?

No. We have our price. If anyone else wants him, they meet that price. 

Celtic's public statement surely kills that move? Why would he now go there, now the fans will think he's a greedy so and so. 

I can only assume the agent has been made aware another club or clubs are looking to get a deal done. 

Interesting couple of weeks ahead.

That statement reeks of "Look, look we offered him loads of money! It's his fault if he doesn't comes to Celtic, not ours!!"

 

Fear of a McGinn like backlash so they paid the money and panicked when his agent didn't sign on the dotted line.

 

 

I still expect him to go to Celtic though.

I don’t think he will end up there now. Celtic have made a total c**t of things by pissing their pants for attention so I can’t see them being happy to turn and roll out the “Welcome Turnbull” patter.

Aye. When it was Rangers "walking away" from the Hastie deal it was all whispers fed to the Record.

Celtic have got this as a fucking pinned Tweet on their official Twitter account.

I mean I still wouldn't rule it out but at the same time the story seems have always been that he'd prefer to move to England.

Come on the lad’s a Motherwell fan. Would any of us sign for them???

He’s obviously not stupid, he realises there are many better clubs out there for him to develop at including Motherwell.

He's a rangers fan if you read Twitter :lol:

Part of me thinks a part of this is actually the agents influence that’s rejected whatever Celtic have offered - as funny as it is to say that Div has turned down Celtic!

 

Thinking back to the prolonged wait we had trying to sort out a new contract for DT, IIRC there was a snide comment or two from Stephen Robinson at the agm about his agent being a dick around the several offers we’d made. So that wouldn’t surprise if something similar was played here.

 

If there’s not been any acceptable bids already from England, or further afield, then I’m not sure if they’ll come in a hurry. Either way, hopefully Div is enjoying his holiday and would more than happily wire him a beer for this bit of patter today!
