Reportedly offered to increase his earnings tenfold. Whether it's down to money or game time, him or his agents, he signs or we move on.

I think it’s really simple to be honest, we pull the plug immediately and move on! There’s no chance we can proceed with a deal after going public that he or his agents snubbed the offer! End this embarrassment right now by simply withdrawing our offer and telling him to beat it! Let him go down south and sink without trace at a Barnsley or some other club on that level! I’m being genuinely honest here when i say it doesn’t bother me in the slightest if we get this kid! He’s a prospect and nothing else! The club have went above and beyond trying to seal this deal, actually further than I thought or wanted them to go! move on and let’s try and sort our defence out!

Game time? I don't know how any player can demand game time. If they turn up n play pure Sh**e do they still expect to be playing every week!

I agree Lh86. Would have had him - its good to keep respawning a Scottish/ British/ Irish core. But I wouldn't lose any sleep over not signing him. I had the bar set higher in my head anyway. If he was a CM, we already have better, if he was to play CAM, I would want much better.

It’s simple move on let him disappear down south and sign somebody who understands it’s a privilege to play for Celtic and not be a wee greedy bar steward who hasn’t even kicked a ball!

It should all have been done and dusted by now JimTim, I say we move on from this, there are other players out there with more experience than this lad, Celtic scouts let's find these players.

I for one are glad Celtic came out and told us the situation. Had Celtic kept quiet the board and lawwell would be getting absolute pelters from all angles over this when it all actually comes down to a player/ agent and greed. No way does turnbull after 1 pro season deserve anywhere near £20 grand. Celtic should now withdraw completely as there has to be a cut off point.

A guy at work who's a Motherwell fan told me today the rumours at their end is we have told him that's the deal you have till Monday afternoon to sing it or its off the table if that's true then we'll done Mr lawell no point dragging these things out move onwards and upwards.

To be honest jaw1888, he should not get that long to make a decision. The offer, if true of around £10 grand per week for a young 19 year old with 1 good season under his belt is a very good deal. I’m positive if he comes in works his socks off a progresses then his contract / wages will be renegotiated as with all good players. He has to be able to handle working at a club the size of Celtic. Come prove himself then he can ask for more. If the offer was turned down on Friday he should’ve been given till T time Saturday to decide, if by then it’s still no then the deals off the table. We as a club don’t come second choice to anyone.
