    I know it wasn't his preference, mate. I just meant there were other personal factors that meant he needed a signing on fee IIRC. If I'm right, then he didn't hold all the cards in the way that players usually do. Show Lawwell any weakness in your negotiating position and you are going to be taken to the cleaners.

    Do you see what I mean?

    It's also possible that the rumour was untrue to be fair.
    I guess McGeady may be an interesting counterexample.

    weve already got our new left back i really dont see us spending another 3 to 4m on another left back, kidding yourself on if you think that lawell is going to do that

    this whole thing is taking far too long, for celtics own self respect we should pull the plug

    arsenal have been draggin this out and we seem happy to have it dragged out! and theres no need we aren't in anyway whatsoever in a position that we must sell him!, even if we have got his replacement in! we have plenty of money in the bank! it would be brilliant for neil lennon the fans and the team to have a stronger squad by having 2 cracking left sided defensive players that are great attacking players aswell for the coming season

    tierneys price is only going to go up after more successful seasons at celtic, tell arsenal to * off and get a move on sorting the right side of defence out

    They’ve upped their bid to £25M but there are clauses wrt qualifying for the CL. We’ve asked for more money up front. Just on SSN now.

    He’ll definitely be away this window sadly.

    Clauses should be surely based on individual achievements to be realistic. Personally, I don't see Arsenal as a current top 4 team next season so anything linked to CL should just be ripped up. Same goes for domestic trophies actually. They're well down the pecking order in England imo.

    There's no way we can accept clauses and add-ons.

    There's a strong argument that 25m as a total price already undersells him as it is. But if it is the fee which sees him leave then the whole amount must be paid up front.

    its making the club look bad, making us look like penny pinchin miserable *

    another thing to think off is this is getting dragged out and arsenal are putting in clauses to protect themselves

    this puts a tremendous amount of pressure on tierney to succeed and arsenal could potentially benefit if tierney doesnt achieve/pass all the milestones in this clause ridden contract

    pull the plug lawell your out your depth

    There’s no ‘definitely’ involved in this. Far too many hurdles at this point.

    True. Has there even been an actual 3. bid? The structure wasn't stated, as opposed to the previous 2 instances. Could be a made-up rumor.

    Why didn't KT and the Club put a Buy Out Clause in his 6 year contract?

    Surely it would prevent all this draggin it out as the Club could say this is the amount, don't approach us if you don't have it?

    Like Griezmann for Atletico, his BOC was public knowledge for ages before he signed for Barca.

    £25m is still not enough for me personally and I hope the club arent settling on that as their 'price'.

    Aye, even if it's just to let rich teams know they can't bully us with their petty cash. Said it before but we're not lacking in funds so we can afford to hang on to our best players.

    Give him a pay rise that says KT you're amazing we need you and guaranteed % of the deal if/when he leaves in two years.

    English window closes 3 weeks before ours, so there can't be that excuse.

    Seen someone post about McGeady being “asked to move on” which at the time we knew was all true and tbh we didn’t have many assets him and Boruc where the only 2 tbh and we didn’t have much cash in bank.

    Fast forward 9 years we are cash rich, have an unbelievable list of “assets” the situation cannot be similar at all!

    Mental to think how far we’ve came as a club in 9 years.
