Heard we are being linked with Ellis Simms, think he would be a good option definitely impressed when playing for Hearts so worth a punt. Thoughts ??

No chance. Bang average.

He would be a great signing! Strong, fast and proven in the spl!

He’s a good player, Everton might want a decent fee for him though.

Someone said fast haha he's towing a caravan bro.

7 goals in 21 appearances for Hearts.
Probably be a good squad addition.

Young ronan on loan to st mirren from wolves would be better than simms lol.

If we could get him on the cheap then it’s a yes from me, I like the look of him he’s a unit.

Proven in spfl? So was Dykes or shankland and none of them were good enough the same as this guy.


9.) 21 Jun 2022
21 Jun 2022 20:07:56
I would take dykes in a heartbeat.


10.) 21 Jun 2022
21 Jun 2022 20:12:27
To be fair Shankland isn’t proven in the SPFL, he’s scored 8 goals in this league.


11.) 21 Jun 2022
21 Jun 2022 20:12:43
A don’t want to be a football snob and wrote the boy off cause I did t really notice him tbf
I’d imagine he’s not going to be the quality we need or i'd have noticed him more. Heard his name but don’t know enough to be honest.


12.) 21 Jun 2022
21 Jun 2022 20:13:25
Where is shanams now btw Av not heard his name in about a year.


13.) 21 Jun 2022
21 Jun 2022 20:44:14
No where near good enough! Itten was better.


14.) 21 Jun 2022
21 Jun 2022 21:04:54
Decent big player, but is he the standard required?


15.) 21 Jun 2022
21 Jun 2022 21:11:31
I don’t think I’d consider him as an improvement on Itten.


16.) 21 Jun 2022
21 Jun 2022 21:15:05
Would rather have botheim, colak,
openda in that order well before simms ?.


17.) 21 Jun 2022
21 Jun 2022 21:32:01
If he is of the quality we need then Everton will either want to keep him or they will want a major transfer fee for him.


18.) 21 Jun 2022
21 Jun 2022 21:55:10
I'd take him he did no bad in the final.


19.) 21 Jun 2022
21 Jun 2022 22:08:52
Just because he scored a screamer in the cup semi?
No - worse than average, we need to look way better than this.


20.) 21 Jun 2022
21 Jun 2022 22:25:29
I thought he was OK at hearts, posed an ariel threat against us and was strong, worked hard too, could do a wee job in the spl, don't think he is the man to take us forward tho.


21.) 21 Jun 2022
21 Jun 2022 22:15:29
To StevieG I'm assuming you ment shankland. He was bought but a Belgian team, now plays for beershot whom bought him for £1m, hearts are wanting him but beershot are wanting 500k for him.


22.) 21 Jun 2022
21 Jun 2022 22:58:32
Thanks papa yes mate that’s who o meant bro I’ve said a few times to the troops my right thing doesn’t work great n I type too fast so thanks for working it out and getting back to me mate ?? There’s a left thumb haha ♥️??.


23.) 22 Jun 2022
22 jun 2022 00:44:04
bar, who says it’s because of a goal he scored in the semi final, ?


24.) 22 Jun 2022
22 Jun 2022 03:02:42
Too many new posters with dreadful opinions. You'll soon learn how it works around here lads ?. But definitely no.


25.) 22 Jun 2022
22 Jun 2022 06:30:58
I think it's great to see so many varied opinions on here. If we all thought the same way, it would be a very dull site indeed. Keep them coming I say.
Simms not for me unless he was a couple of hundred k - very unlikely.


26.) 22 Jun 2022
22 Jun 2022 06:52:57
am sure this is a rumour page but far too many people on here just sit and wait for someone to post then hit them straight away bringing them down, at the end of the day we all have opinions and support the same club so why constantly have a go a folk. Rant over.


27.) 22 Jun 2022
22 Jun 2022 06:53:09
If he comes in he would in my eyes only be a squad player, I don't doubt Itten was decent but guy had no heart and we don't know what there mentality is like until they pull on the shirt.


28.) 22 Jun 2022
22 Jun 2022 08:01:41
5 goals in 17 appearances from hearts big and strong but no the fastest kinda mixed bag signing never know how he could do with better players around him.


29.) 22 Jun 2022
22 Jun 2022 08:09:50
He’d be a good player to have in the squad no doubt. Impressed with him at Hearts and thought he was a stand out whenever I watched them. Might command too high a fee for a squad player though.


30.) 22 Jun 2022
22 jun 2022 08:56:44
i think ger was having a laugh there, he didn’t mean about new posters with dreadful opinions, i don’t think.


31.) 22 Jun 2022
22 Jun 2022 09:23:20
TT, had you even heard of him before that goal?


32.) 22 Jun 2022
22 Jun 2022 10:17:43
Ger many old posters with dreadful opinions. We welcome any blue nose who wishes to make a contribution.


33.) 22 Jun 2022
22 jun 2022 10:21:20
erm, yes mate, i seen him every saturday night on sportscene and read the football reports every day, why on earth would a guy who is brought up steeped in football never have heard of a hearts player?


34.) 22 Jun 2022
22 Jun 2022 10:40:12
Agree Tom. Also not like semi was first time simms had played against Rangers.


35.) 22 Jun 2022
22 Jun 2022 10:42:48
Simms is a no for me, I don't think he'd improve the squad or bring anything new to the table.


36.) 22 Jun 2022
22 Jun 2022 11:41:39
Big Lafferty did well with Hearts then got a return to us which was fairly meh!


37.) 22 Jun 2022
22 Jun 2022 11:49:13
Lad works hard and looked decent enough for hearts last season. He is young enough to develop but I can't see Everton selling him and hate seeing us bring on players for other clubs. It would be a loan deal and from what I hear he is highly regarded by a few coaches at Everton so wouldn't be cheap if option to buy was included. My question is would he get into our first 11? And would he be best option at Everton asking price. For me the answer would be no to both. I want to see us shoe some ambition. If we wanted a player of simms level could get the wee forward from Ross County for free.


38.) 22 Jun 2022
22 Jun 2022 12:22:29
Ross county player i'm sure went to Belgium.


39.) 22 Jun 2022
22 Jun 2022 15:04:12
Correct Tom, some tongue in cheek humour is harmless without targeting individuals. If some don't get it then we move on, it's all good. But to the player in question, he has something about him, however I don't think it's enough to warrant wearing our jersey.


40.) 22 Jun 2022
22 jun 2022 16:30:31
correct ger, , bellshill, that boy went to some obscure club a few weeks ago i think mate.


41.) 22 Jun 2022
22 Jun 2022 16:44:22
I spoke with a contact at Everton, he says that at present they have no plans to sell Simms so on that basis it would be a loan move and that for me is a no no!
