Biggest worry for me is not particularly Neil although I don’t want him to go it’s players like Stewart who have also to sign contracts. It might have a big bearing on his decision particularly as Rangers are now Champions league.
 
Why's that? He done exactly this at Preston when West Brom wanted him?

Because it's imperative that the Board ensure that,if we have the right person in the job,his conditions of employment are correct and he's happy.
Of course,if he's making unreasonable demands,which can't be met,then he's not the right man in the first place.
 
We don’t know that he has had his head turned.

Let’s be cool and not get things twisted till the whole story develops.

He does not need our permission on a rolling contract, he hasn’t asked for ****.
He may not have gotten permission or needed it, but it certainly looks as though we have given our blessing
 
my nuance here is there are different levels of "speaking to".

If he's pitching for the role and doing a presentation etc - then I agree, he's done for me.

If he's on a phone call with them out of courtesy to at least hear them out, before letting them down gently - thats fine.

If a recruiter calls me I almost always speak to them about the role for a few mins just out of courtesy, as you never know when you might need that recruiter again.

Good point mate, especially the recruiter bit. I have had a chat with one in the last few weeks despite only being in my job 3 months and not looking to move, hut he rang me so I chatted with him for 10 minutes or so.
