Russell Martin has Ross Stewart as his main target **Transfer confirmed **


Depends on what Stewart fails on. Ba was on the basis they felt he had an underlying issue they didn’t want to take a chance on.

If this is because Stewart’s actual injury is further away from repair than we think/have advised then it’s an issue.

We don’t even know if it’s failed at this stage or why though tbf.
He hasn’t failed
 
I'm very much of the thought that I don't blame Stewart one bit for leaving. But we are also the club that gave him his name. Stood by him with 3 long term injuries as we were obviously contacted to do.

But first chance to leave he's off. No real warmth to him leaving like I have with Gooch.
We 'stood by him' because he's a quality striker not because we were doing him a favour, we didn't offer him the going rate for a good championship striker and are more than happy to take the money for him to leave which I can't really blame either side at this point.
 
If he’s getting £25k a week for 4 years that’s a £5m commitment.

I think we’ll regret selling but you can almost understand why we were unwilling to offer that to an injured player.

We‘re going to have a job keeping roberts and Clarke on board now too I suspect.
