    It's a Petrie v Lawell poker match.

    Time for Lawwell to start applying the pressure. Get Hibs phoned and told £1.8million + Allan is the final highest offer, if not accepted we will be back on the 10th of August with £1.3million + Allan.

    Player himself will want the deal done as will Brendan.

    They should be greatful to us anyway over the last few years Henderson, Allan, Commons, Stokes, McGeouch etc all loaned or sold on the cheap to them helping them win the Scottish Cup and get promotion.

    This is the problem. Brendan clearly sees him as 1 of our main summer target's and will want this done asap. As well as no risking him going to England..

    Personally I wouldn't go 2.5/3 and would look elsewhere if they rejected 1 more time (a 2 mill deal and Allan say) I'd take the bid off the table and go for him end of the month when they're out of Europe, the English window is shut and they're now desperate to sell to us..

    Yep. For some strange reason, we've gone way overboard with helping them with good player's for absolutely fuckall and no doubt those loans, they barely paid a penny either..

    Get Petrie to *. £2.5m max + Allen. If he rejects this then leave it until January. Mcginn wants to come here so he'll sign a pre contract in January. We hold all the aces in this deal. Not Petrie. He'll be squirming to sell the longer this drags on.

    So they should accept an offer they don’t think is acceptable just because we’ve loaned them a few players before?

    Just meet the valuation ffs, they want Allan and he still has a few years on his contract so worth about 2M then just give them at max 3M. We’ve got money to spend and this is a sound investment.

    No, they should realise we're not going to have the pish ripped out of us and we're going to bully them into getting him on the cheap cause we know we can.

    Main summer target was clearly Edouard

    Last part is down to Lebny’s relationship with our board, nothing else.

    Henderson, Stokes and McGeouch went there under Stubbs.

    There will only be one winner. Petrie on to a busted flush.

    Were never spending another 9m on another position this window,if we get Mcginn for 2-3m and maybe another couple of positions RB/CB for similiar amount and maybe a loan wide player that would be a very good window.

    The fact Lennon has came out and sad how difficult it is for McGinn because were a step forward to him or whatever says it all.

    Lennon/Hibs are trying to soften up the Hibs fans and act like they’re playing hardball because they’ve already lost their best player from last season on a free and now losing McGinn.

    But aye, Lawwell should just throw an extra £1m at them to shut up a few * on talkceltic :giggle1:

    Aye it's clear to see Lenny knows it's coming and the player clearly wants it..

    Said he doesn't know what the fee Hibs are holding out for (which he will)..

    The fact he’s said he doesn’t know what fee they’re holding out for, after Hibs briefed the press last week they want £3m tells me they know we aren’t going near that.

    I think it’ll probably be £2m plus whatever we value Allen at, then they’ll give us the money for Allen back in a separate deal so St Mirren don’t demand more of a fee off them if Allan is included in the deal.

    4-5m with 2 or 3 years left on his deal maybe, but 2-2.5 with 1 year left is fair.
