Martin Boyle to Saudi

[Rangerscoverboy]

Clearly going for the moolah but you honestly couldn't pay me enough to go live and work there.

 

[Airplane]

Head down for a couple of years and his family is set for life, no brainer

 

[scottie59]

In all fairness he is getting to stage in his career where a good payday cannot blame hin, personally i am glad because there was talk of him being linked with them so that's a bonus, he was a thorn in our side when playing hibs

 

[govantrueblue]

Always a danger anytime he's played us.
Glad to see him go.

 

[Maxiglw]

Will live like a king whilst back in Edinburgh people will see their living standards sink like a stone

 

[Family bam]

Hair weaves seemingly cheaper over there.

 

[madridista]

Head down for a couple of years and his family is set for life, no brainer

20k a week tax free for a couple of years. Guys set for life.

Considering he’ll earn over £3m in three year, it’s hard to blame him.

 

[chucknorris]

Glad to see the back of him

 

[BlueSevenTwo]

He’s been diving about for some time trying to get this deal done.

 

[BrooklynBlue]

He's 28yo, a mediocre player with a mediocre career. This is the best he'll get. Quite right to make the move.

 

[Thor]

Earning between £25k-£30k a week tax free is a no brainer tbh!

 

[Gers1]

A few seasons might be enough to set him for life. Bit of a brutal country though.

 

[20rangersultras07]

20k a week tax free for a couple of years. Guys set for life.

Considering he’ll earn over £3m in three year, it’s hard to blame him.

Especially at his age

 

[Diego Maradona]

His wife is a footballer too is she not. She won’t be over there!

 

[Tailwind]

Always a danger anytime he's played us.
Glad to see him go.

Aye.

Not so much for his footballing ability, but his willingness to dive and cheat to win pens off compliant refs

 

[Davieblue1977]

Glad to see the back of him

Agreed

 

[ricksen24]

He’s not very good

 

[Jorg Albertz]

What's the rumoured wage he'll be receiving? Awful league to play in

 

[greggakd]

His wife is a footballer too is she not. She won’t be over there!

pretty sure she plays for the filth

 

[bkerr72]

What's the rumoured wage he'll be receiving? Awful league to play in

20k a week tax free

 

[Jorg Albertz]

20k a week tax free

Crazy money considering his background etc. would be stupid to turn it down.

 

[Talktalk]

Clearly going for the moolah but you honestly couldn't pay me enough to go live and work there.

I’m sure £1.5m a year would even have you living in a tent and using a camel as transport

 

[Talktalk]

pretty sure she plays for the filth

Nearly its Hibs

 

[bud_light]

Was a thorn in our side.Glad he's away

 

[ssblue]

pretty sure she plays for the filth

She plays for Hibs.

 

[arnietac1]

A few seasons might be enough to set him for life. Bit of a brutal country though.

a few seasons? £20grand a week tax free for 1 year is over a million mate. Before any signing on fee and bonuses.
If he cannot invest that and be comfy for rest of his life he is dumb as feck.
Hmm...he is a footballer right enough so maybe not.

 

[BlueSevenTwo]

His wife is a footballer too is she not. She won’t be over there!

Plays for Hibs too.

 

[55timesthechampions]

Can’t blame him tbh, will be on great wages.

 

[bkerr72]

Crazy money considering his background etc. would be stupid to turn it down.

That's why he wants to go sets him up for life Hibs kb'd £2m as they want £3m for him and he wasn't happy. Someone in transfer thread be unhappy as they want us to sign him.

 

[rangersfc_51]

Good for him, great money he will get.

 

[Russ H]

My prediction is he will be back here by the summer or this time next year!

 

[Barrymoped]

Clearly going for the moolah but you honestly couldn't pay me enough to go live and work there.

Thing is, it’s easy to say that when you aren’t being offered life changing sums of money to go.

Can’t blame him in the slightest. It’s not like he will be living in a hut and wiping his arse with his hand.

 

[Diego Maradona]

He’s not very good

Yeah, that hat trick apart, he’s awful

 

[HIHI]

He’s not very good

Scored a few against us so maybe not so bad!

 

[Thewandofpedro]

Unbeweaveable

 

[HIHI]

Can’t blame him tbh, will be on great wages.

Was he a free agent or did Hibs get a fee?
Regardless pleased he did not go to c-ltc!
Wonder why they did not show some interest in a player who scored a hat trick against us!

 

[Manc Bear]

Hmm...he is a footballer right enough so maybe not.

And I’m sure he will have negotiated a car and accommodation paid for as part of the deal. Won’t be far off equivalent of £45-50k pw gross over here

 

[IrvineLoyal]

The clubs he's been at i dont think he will have made that much in his career.



No brainer this sets him up for life

 

[Ross_]

20grand a week tax free - you would live like a king and be set for life playing out there for 2/3 years.

Sign me up

 

[Diego Maradona]

Sign me up

And no booze to spend it on

 

[Davie_Mitchell]

Those guys in that league look about 50, but they are actually only in their 20’s.

 

[CooperBlu11]

Head down for a couple of years and his family is set for life, no brainer

He'll need to if he wants to keep his head.

 

[Smkz23]

They got £3m for him. He was under contract until 2024.

 

[Davester]

Have a mate who went over there to work years ago. He didn't come back. Loves it. Good standard of life.

 

[bluestory]

His wife is a footballer too is she not. She won’t be over there!

Her name is Paul Hanlon.

 

[Sheik Ma Shammy]

Anything a step up from Hibs even if he's out walking his dog and steps in shit it's still better than representing Hibs.

 

[Louch]

Someone send them Barkers YouTube highlight reel

 

[Deekog]

Was a thorn in our side.Glad he's away

Apart from the semi final he really wasn't

 

[Tino_Col]

Have a mate who went over there to work years ago. He didn't come back. Loves it. Good standard of life.

I have a mate who went over. Journalist. Not heard from in a while actually now I think about it.

 

[QueensferryCR3Bear]

Three years in Saudi and then rolls back here with £3m in his pocket at the age of 31 and goes to the filth on a freebie before ending his career back at Hibs.

Easy choice for a plodder.
