Whittaker deal ???

Keep him for the last year of his contract.Sign 23 year old Lee Wallace on a pre contract in January. Win the league again, say thanks very much Steven off ye go son. Lee Wallace joins next year,Win the league again and so on etc...............

I have no problem with him leaving for a higher wage but only if we get a decent fee. I'd expect at least £1.5m.

We paid £2m for him, he is now a far far better player with a few caps to his name. If he wasn't in his last year he'd be worth £3-4m easy. I'd accept £1.5m though since it's his last year.

Anything lower and Bursaspor can GTF.

If it's true he wants more than £20k (which I wouldn't have offered anyway) he can most certainly rot in the reserves for a year.

We need to take a stand. We are financially sound now and shouldn't be ripped off like we were with Miller.

Even if we have to pay full wages for a season to make a point, the point has to be made. We will not be held to ransom.

Imo that's about 18,000k more a week than he is worth!

How come Rangers want 2mill for a Scottish full back, in the final year of his contract, but offer 300,000 for Lee Wallace??

Hopefully because we are not a selling club anymore!

I'm glad he rejected it. Thats a ridiculous salary for him. £12k a week would suffice.

He's incredibly average, lets not get carried away.

Lee Wallace wasn't signed for 2 million pounds he dosen't have champions league experience,scored in a uefa cup quater final and started a uefa cup final,he hasn't been in the scotland squad regularly

he also hasn't been the fullback for the scottish premier league champions for the past 3 seasons

i think Wallace is worth 700k to 1 million and that we will pay that if hearts are willing to sell to us

Whittaker shouldn't be getting 20k a week

if nobody pays the 2 million then keep him and let him go next year

If he was looking at wanting more than 20K a week he should've came out and said (like it or not) like Bougherra that he wants a move away. I have to commend the big Algerian for making it clear what he wants from the start.

Christian Nerlinger done the exact same when he came, albeit the transfer never turned out to be that good for Rangers due to injury, he was a high profile signing ans stated right away that he was staying for the length of his contract then moving on.

Whittaker has been the centre of speculation since the takeover and if he was looking for the kind of wages it looks like, by knocking back 20K, he should have made his intentions clear.

A bit of honesty from players is all that we as fans expect.

I have to say if i was Mcoist i would be sitting at the airport with him now to make sure he gets on the plane....we need players like Naismith....for me whittaker can go..he will never realise what he had until its gone...
