BBC confirm that a fee of 275k + 2 players have been agreed by Hibs and Celtic for Scott Allan. Would absolutely love Allan to say no thanks. come on Scott

For me it is a big loss to miss out on Scott Allan! If Rangers hadn't went in for a bid at all then Celtic wouldn't have entertained him and he may have been a Rangers player come next season!

Think Scott Allan's ambitions was to play for one of the big two get a bit of experience in Europe and then get a move down south

We were never going to get him this year!

Before you all start blaming Dave King, think again! The ugly man Stubbs would never have sold to Rangers as closest rivals and he had every right not to

Ach well gutted is no the word! We will just have to move on

Cmon Mark Warburton

Listen the lad sez he's a blue nose. Apparently his whole family are rangers mad. If he wants to sign for them then good luck to him because as much as I can't stand them there midfield is solid and I can't see where he will get into that starting 11. He'll be a squad player at best n before you know it he'lol be shipped out to lower leagues on loan n let go by them once his contract expires.

Celtic bidding less than rangers and also getting 2 players off the payroll.

Listen guys if he goes he goes, this season is all about getting out of this league and then building from there, I still don't think it will take much to catch Celtic once in the premier league so onwards and upwards

There are many players of similar or greater ability than Allan out there, as I'm sure our new manager knows. He wasn't one of Warburton's top targets for a reason. If he goes to the manky mob he'll have to alter his whole way of life like everyone before him who made that decision. But let's face it, he's not the be all and end all. In Warbs we trust. Forward with Rangers and fuck Hibs, Celtic, Stubbs, Liewell and all others with hate in their hearts for us.

Don't moan at the lad for looking after his future. But you can thank supper Ally for not going and getting him int he first place.

Looks like we dodged a bullet with Scott Allan, obviously no more a blue nose than Rod Stewart.

Can't blame the lad. Good luck to him.

A few thoughts on this saga

Is he even worth the hype? He failedat west brom, failed on loan and has only had one season at Scottish championship level. Our pathetic mid field did nullify him pretty well last season.

Is Celtic a good move for him? I would say no as I don't see him being anything but a squad player.

Is it a good move for Celtic? Well it is as it has kicked us in the balls. A small fee, little risk, the shedding of a couple of squad players ands development of their youngsters. If he works out I'm sure he will have a sell on th eng premier clause in contract so potentially profitable.

Should hibs be happy? On surface they have got one over on us or at least that's what Stubbs would like hubs fans to think. Dig a bit and you will see that Stubbs is not acting in hibs best interest and his hatred of us has clouded his judgment. He said only two days ago price was near 1mill. Celtic have paid less than our bids which where apparently not enough. Hibs have been weakened and any smart members of their dressing room will see Stubbs putting himself above everything.

Does this effect out promotion chances? Certainly not negatively, the whole saga has had an effect on hibs, they now have to adjust to losing their star man. henderson may improve them but hopefully we will be streets ahead before he has any impact. Mcgeouch is a championship level player.

Should we have done more? Yes. This has been embarrassing from start to finish. The fans have put their money up and King promised investment that had not came. Gullible fans will make excuses and state belief that he will invest on promotion- that is not what he said. Had we offered around 500k I'm certain hibs would have accepted. If not then we should have went elsewhere ages ago, the fans deserve more. Our side may be good enough but then again we were a penalty away from disaster against st mirren - we shouldn't be gambling as failure this season is the end

Luigi please stop using every negative headline to rip on the board / king. It's really boring now. We missed out on a good player but honestly we offered the correct amount of money for him (as evidenced by Hibernian accepting a lesser bid).

Paying way over the odds would have been absolutely stupid. For once give the club their due for not being pressured in to something.

You can disagree if you want, I will post what I want.

Are you too small to accept other people's opinions?

I think you are exactly the kind of gullible fan who will prevent ourclub from ever getting back to where we should be

If more fans had the intelligence to ask questions of the club the mess of the last few years would never have happened.

People like you shouted down concerns over Murray, whyte , green and every other.

If you don't like my posts, don't read them. Simple.

Guy's let forget about SCOTT ALLAN.
Stuffed "Main Rivals" 1st game of the season, then beat another contender next match.
No matter what comes in front of us this season we're in a better state of mind, fitter, adventurous and playing with flair & no lack of enthusiasm while creating more chances every game.
We and only we can jeopardise this promotion push this season.
I believe we'll get promotion quicker this time than the Jambo's did last year.
Lets see how many PREMIER teams look forward to coming our way in the cups this season and bring on a semifinal at least.

I hate to say it but Luigi is baaaang on this time! I also hate when our fans talk about over spending for Scott Allan is not appropriate eg £500k. It doesn't matter contract wise if he has less than a year left or whatever. If other teams are interested and they are willing to bump up their offers then we should be willing to pay bigger money for him if we think he's worth it and a good investment. Remaining contract duration is means nothing in that scenario. If he's worth it and the club wants him then yeh, we should have bumped up a more serious and less embarrassing offer at first to stop Stubbs looking like he was in control and in my opinion made us look weak, although I believe we are not. I think king should have showed the cash sooner and larger rather than 50k increases. Our team now is capable without Allan. Better players will come and we will laugh at all of this.
