mad-jag Posted June 24, 2019 Report Share Posted June 24, 2019 Likewise, really hope he stays at least another season. I wonder at what point we would cash in though, half a million plus sell on clause? i would personally rather we got more up front and a smaller sell on %. He is still at an age he could get lost in the reserves and come back up the road for nothing much like SoD and Jack Hendry etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auld Jag Posted June 24, 2019 Report Share Posted June 24, 2019 Sell him, get him back on a season long loan. Norwich are in the Premiership, he wont get near the first team next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jagsman Posted June 24, 2019 Report Share Posted June 24, 2019 i thought we knocked back close to £1m for him so why would they bid for something like that when we still have contract Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagfox Posted June 25, 2019 Report Share Posted June 25, 2019 Knocked back £400,000 in January. Strange they come back with a low-ball offer. Let's hope the club have developed a poker face... Being signed for their u23 squad so I don't think there would be any loanback at this stage? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got the impression the £400k was where the January deal could potentially get to, whereas I get the impression the £300k is more up front. Mind you, in terms of value, does he have more or less value to the club since January, With a manager who prefers a shape that doesn't suit Fitzy, how valuable is he to Partick Thistle if he is only going to be a bit part player. ETA : I think he is a brilliant wee talent, but can understand why others may sense an opportunity if his playing time is limited with us Edited June 25, 2019 by jaf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 25, 2019 Report Share Posted June 25, 2019 Just hope he gets a game this season if he is staying. Few glimpses that he could be a good attacking player but GC doesn't seem to want to expose him which I don't get at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Fitzpatrick might well not even be first choice sub. One crumb of hope tho' would be if he's considerably stronger now than last season Aiden could play the "Storey" role. Miles was started ad nauseam last term so a stronger Fitzpatrick could possibly get a regular start. That would also make Aiden that bit more versatile player than Cardle. Lots and ifs and buts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea but I think any transfer of six figures can be massaged into a possible £1m with unlikely to achieve add ons. From the snippets in the press there doesn't exactly seem to be a bidding war for the lad. We'd be daft to let him go till at least a couple of clubs are after him.

Aye but I think they'd only take him on the cheap. I don't think they'd be serious players like Norwich or an English Championship side.

Mr Bunny Posted June 25, 2019 Report Share Posted June 25, 2019 Celtic may make a fair-ish bid for him but Rangers would want him for peanuts. They might not even be interested, especially if they pay attention to their fans reaction to young players with names like Aiden Fitzgerald and Declan McDaid.
