Hope we've got a sell on fee as keepers up there tend to generate decent fees if they have a couple of good seasons.

This. I reckon he's far better than the SPL. He'll move on I reckon.

Yup - tis my feeling too.

A permanent move to Celtic was always going to happen tbh. Shame that he never got the chance to properly fight for the number 1 here but ah well.

Best of luck to him.

He could be our long term no.1, if Krul didn't join us 4 years ago. Sorry but that's life.

No great loss. He's not very good.

Yorkie · « **Reply #929 on:** Wednesday 25 January 2012, 03:12:31 PM »

Think he was done here the moment we signed Elliot. Looked s*** in pre-season, happy to get some cash for him, but i hope there's a sell-on percentage clause thingywotsit.

Good luck to him there.

Decent fee.

Roger Kint · « **Reply #931 on:** Wednesday 25 January 2012, 03:23:23 PM »

Decent fee, throw in a sell on/appearance clause or two and its a good deal all round. He hasnt overly impressed me whenever he has played in the games i have seen.

je85 · « **Reply #932 on:** Wednesday 25 January 2012, 03:34:03 PM »

Best of luck to him. As Zero said, he could be our long term no 1 if it wasn't for Krul being quite special.

toontownman · « **Reply #933 on:** Wednesday 25 January 2012, 03:38:58 PM »

Considering we have probably recouped another million or so in wages and loan fees the last couple of years it's a decent deal. Sure there will be sell on fees involved, mad mike likes his money.

Ameritoon · « **Reply #934 on:** Wednesday 25 January 2012, 03:45:25 PM »

Was always going to happen, especially after Krul's start. Good luck to him.

I doubt it. He's never looked good enough to play in the top flight when I've seen him.

Being the best keeper in SPL at such a young age does shows that he has some quality. Judge him just base on a few pre-season matches is quite unfair.

The point is, while Forster seems like to be a "good" keeper in the future, Krul is showing signs of being a "great" keeper NOW. Very, very unlucky for Forster.

VaVaVoom · « **Reply #937 on:** Wednesday 25 January 2012, 04:07:26 PM »

Hopefully this means Krul is going nowhere now OR in the summer.

Forster isnt that good anyway.

He was pretty naff in the reserves too. Gets chipped an awful lot, can't command his area, can't come and collect the ball with any conviction for a man of his size etc. I found it staggering that one of the main issues many had with Krul when he first broke through were how he dealt with crosses, because even when he was younger and he dropped a few he was still way ahead of Harper and Forster (and Given for that matter).

If Krul wasn't here I think the club would be looking to sign a new keeper rather than sticking with Forster. He's a perfect for one of the Old Firm teams.

good fee for 2 m

Absolutely amazing if the figure of £2m is true. If Forster is worth £2m then Krul is worth £200m plus

johnson293 · « **Reply #941 on:** Wednesday 25 January 2012, 05:31:59 PM »

Is this our only departure this window, I'll be very happy...........

....unless we can palm Alan Smith off on someone, which would then make it an Awesome window!

HansDownerpantz · « **Reply #942 on:** Wednesday 25 January 2012, 05:35:15 PM »

Bit of a shame the lad has ambitions like, would have been great to have him as back-up to Krul.

Optimistic Nut · « **Reply #943 on:** Wednesday 25 January 2012, 05:38:01 PM »

Decent fee. Good luck to him, was inevitable though.

Would have maybe hoped for a little bit more but not to bothered. Hopefully it is put towards a new defender.

I would imagine that this unexpected extra income would go towards the rumored increased bid for Rav Morrison

Toon's Taylor · « **Reply #946 on:** Wednesday 25 January 2012, 08:55:50 PM »

Ripped off. Will be worth £5m of anyone's money if he ever plays premiership games.

You reckon wrong. He's reached his peak at Celtic already, mate.
