An offer was made from French club Stade Rennais (£1m which I would take) but Sammy knocked it back saying he didn't fancy it.
Surely he must realise by now that he is not good enough for Celtic and all he is doing is frustrating the fans. I have given him chance after chance and defended him to the critics but recently I have become subdued to the fact that he is just not good enough and does not have the confidence needed to play in the Celtic jersey. Lennon has given him every chance, showed confidence in him, got him extra coaching, and defended him public ally and he still doesn't produce the goods.
Just leave please Georgios. I feel bad saying it but your time is up. One game a year doesn't cut it any more

Samaras

Why should he move? He felt wanted enough to be given a bumper 3 year contract and was asked to start in Celtic's biggest games of the season.
If anybody is to blame it is whoever sanctioned the contract. Even Celtic fans were aware that the only reason Sammy was turning it on was because his contract was due to expire. A display of form that always seems to happen when he is due to land his next contract.

Think he'll be signing for a EPL club today.

I'll happily chip in £100 towards the cost of a one-way ticket anywhere

I don't blame him one bit. He's on a good contract and is free to move on his own terms.

Anyway we need him if we only have 3 other strikers.

Aye, he is entitled to stay put and keep earning his 15-20k a week or whatever he is on.
But enough is enough, he is taking the pash out of us fans, who are lining his pockets while he is giving us nothing in return. And it's not like hes not had a chance to give us something back.

We don't need Samaras. It's turning into another Bobo Balde fiasco, go ffs go.

Nothing like the Bobo situation, Bobo was fit and able but WGS wouldn't play him, Neil plays Gorgeous.

Have we reached the stage where players have to move if some, I repeat some!!, fans decide that they should?
Maybe the club should have a button on the website so we could get rid of any players we don't like during transfer windows with the players' contracts stating that they have to follow our wishes.
What a load of codswallop.
Samaras is entitled to move or stay, he has a contract which the club were desperate for him to sign and he doesn't have to go anywhere if he wants to stay.
Shades of Balde here.
