Nobody's saying he's not a good player. We will miss him if he goes - no doubt about that.
All people are saying is that if Sevco are ever going to even challenge for a league, let alone win the title as their deluded orc followers expect, then they will need to have better players than Timothy in their team & squad.
Is Shinnie better than what Timothy have? Would he get in the Tims team? Not a chance.
Exact same with the rat & most Sevco players. Very few would get a game for the Tims - hence the 8 point gap.
Would signing him be a massive GIRFUY to us - yes it would - and knowing what those c'unts are like & what they think of us (despite regular rimmings from our chairman) I can see them doing that, hence my concern that Shinnie may let himself down very badly here...
Classic Rangers tactics to try and unsettle us just before we play them in a replay which their season is hanging on. No point speculating really. Shinnie will know what it'll mean for him and his family if he goes there. He knows he's loved here and central to our plans. If he really wants a new challenge he'll go south and try his luck in England. If he wants to make a bit of extra money and throw away his career in the process he'll go to Rangers.
There's not much the club can do, and I don't think there's much more McInnes can do. Why would Shinnie make a decision midway through the season when he can wait til summer, assess his options knowing that an offer from us will always be on the cards anyway. Makes no sense for him to make a decision now.
