REDOXO Posted May 12, 2005 Report Share Posted May 12, 2005 Yep because Scotland are a major force in the international world aren't they.←Yep much like City and Swindon. However whats his value now....Also Danny Wilson never played him much either in favour of BL***Y Leapy..Must be something to do with the abilities of people off the park than Millers ability on it...!

Guest Champagne Football Posted May 12, 2005 Report Share Posted May 12, 2005 Next season, if we get Stewart, can anyone hand on heart say you would play Miller ahead of Stewart, Brooker and Lita? I will take the money thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich-TWSC- Posted May 12, 2005 Report Share Posted May 12, 2005 I think they would hold their own in this division though, Rich. ←Are you sure? I jest, I jest.Point taken but there are other factors that lead to Miller's success at Hearts, like the fact he's closer to home etc.Miller had a fair chance in his first season (judging by appearences)Now he's in the Scotland squad do you honestly think that'll up his value by a lot? I don't.He's Aberdeen bound now I hear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will take the money thanks.←Miller would do Brookers job effectively I am sure. A lot of people are basing their view of him on what they saw a year ago. From what I have seen of him on Scottish TV, he looks bigger and fitter without losing his mobility. My point is moot however as he WILL go and we WILL take the money.

Come on the Scottish Prem consists of the equivilent of 2 mid table Premiership teams and the rest is league 1 and 2 sides.Scottish football is poor!

RedM Posted May 12, 2005 Report Share Posted May 12, 2005 The sad thing is at the moment he is our player and we have all but let him slip from our grasp. Do you think if we were trying to tempt a young, up and coming player, scoring regularly for Hearts and just been named in the scotland squad, he would look at us twice now?Look what can happen if the Manager and fans have confidence in your ability. Everyone is happy.Edit; Butterflybairn, it goes without saying that I would congratulate him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest butterflybairn Posted May 12, 2005 Report Share Posted May 12, 2005 Makes me proud to have seen him come through at Falkirk to get to that stage and still only be 21. Well done Lee! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats what makes or inability to find a place for him so strange and frustrating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is playing for a bigger, better side then us and doing the business. If he doesn't go to Aberdeen, Hearts or anyone else in Scotland, it seems he may have done enough to earn himself a move to an English club in a higher division then ourselves, where hopefully he can make himself a success.

RoryFice Posted May 12, 2005 Report Share Posted May 12, 2005 Despite the absolute awfulness of the Scottish national team I don't think Miller will get called up. There's surely still better options than him. That being said, if he does get capped, get him back to Ashton Gate...having an England u21 and a Scottish international in a League One side would be great.

Guest E_J Posted May 12, 2005 Report Share Posted May 12, 2005 Not sure whether this is really great news for Bristol, as your chairman Steve Lansdown will no doubt raise his asking price yet again, probably too far.Miller will not be going to Aberdee, they simply cannot afford him but may make a bid of £300k. Managerless Hearts have already stated they will not be held to ransom, while at the same time know Miller is far from irreplaceable. Also, we look like aquiring a new defender from Brescia to replace current Scotland defenders so being in the Scotland team doesn't mean an awful lot.

Those who dismiss the Scottish game are those who have never been to a game up there. As I've said dozens of times on here, most of the SPL sides would more than hold their own in the poor English Championship. Many also say there are only 2 times that can win the SPL. Correct. But, realistically, how many can win the English Prem? Very often mentioned the gap between 1st and 3rd in the SPL. Well, have a look at the English Prem and La Liga. Same story there. I'm delighted for Lee Miller (apart from when he's scored v Hibs!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why name Aberdeen and just "2 Championship sides". Why not name these sides aswell?...What happened to his 'demand' of a bid from Hearts.
