Hirst to Blackpool - slayer - 18-08-2022
Latest rumour. Funny how these things move in patterns
RE: Hirst to Blackpool - bluetagagain - 18-08-2022
I wonder was that the reason we got Bishop???
RE: Hirst to Blackpool - Theyak2 - 18-08-2022
This sounds very plausible
RE: Hirst to Blackpool - Hammie - 18-08-2022
his agent is busy
RE: Hirst to Blackpool - Theyak2 - 18-08-2022
It would explain both Appleton and the weirdness that surrounded the Bishop transfer.
Whatever, I'm happy we have got the best striker in league 1
RE: Hirst to Blackpool - Theyak2 - 18-08-2022
I think DC always wanted Bishop and knew we wouldn't be able to afford Hirst.
The lad has not had a preseason in him yet.
DC did well.
Not only have we got the best striker, if this is true, ipswich have been led a merry dance after telling everyone that he was as good as theirs.
Oops, that's a shame.
RE: Hirst to Blackpool - Northstander - 18-08-2022
Pleased if he isn't going to Ipswich, many of their fans reckoned it was a done deal
RE: Hirst to Blackpool - mikey393 - 18-08-2022
Just a rumour at present so nowhere near a done deal yet!
RE: Hirst to Blackpool - Theyak2 - 18-08-2022
I feel for the lad. Hirst was giving himself a chance. This procrastination will only hurt his development. He was a work in progress

although if he was made a free agent, it was his decision to make.
RE: Hirst to Blackpool - Cunninglinguist - 18-08-2022
I liked the look of Shilow Tracey. There is a rumour.
RE: Hirst to Blackpool - Theyak2 - 18-08-2022
So did I Cunny.
Big powerful runner that glided past a couple of tackles and drove to the edge of our area not once but twice
Something different to what we have.
Worth a cheeky bid , he's in his last year
RE: Hirst to Blackpool - Cunninglinguist - 19-08-2022
Cambridge fans are half expecting to lose him and maybe Knibbs too.
RE: Hirst to Blackpool - bluetagagain - 19-08-2022
I believe Hirst is signing a new contract with Leicester. Apparently they wanted a 7 figure fee for him.
RE: Hirst to Blackpool - slayer - 19-08-2022
Yep am extension to 2026 and a Championship loan
RE: Hirst to Blackpool - Cunninglinguist - 19-08-2022
Hope it works out for him.
RE: Hirst to Blackpool - TBP - 19-08-2022
He certainly wasn't worth a seven figure fee.
RE: Hirst to Blackpool - DeepBlue - 19-08-2022
Beginning to look like the story that broke about him being released on a free was a hoax.
I'd have thought he was worth a million, certainly to a championship club, but I wouldn't be half as upset if we had spent a million on him as I was when we did that for Marquis.
RE: Hirst to Blackpool - Cunninglinguist - 19-08-2022
Worth a million, on what basis? Does that mean any average striker in league 1 is worth a million if he’s bought by a championship team?
Ultimately, he was only average.

Ultimately, he was only average.
13 goals in half a season is above average.
And I've already indicated on what basis by comparing him favourably to another league one player who sold for £1m.

As I pointed out it was based on him not being in the LCFC website but he is.

A one season wonder(?) I certainly wouldn't price any striker with only thirteen goals over a season (he was here the entire season?)
And the player you compared him to did it over several seasons and certainly didn't get sold for a million after he left Pompey. Marquis was bought at an over inflated price.
Harness scored 12 last season. Is he worth just shy of a million?

Nah.
RE: Hirst to Blackpool - dsmg - 20-08-2022
Well, he's doing pretty well so far, but the Bish just a little bit better.
RE: Hirst to Blackpool - bluetagagain - 20-08-2022
Harness apparently went for 800k ( includes add ons).
