Tribunal fees are never what the club losing the player want. Its always under what they value the player, Sturridge for example Man City wanted �£10m and I think they only got �£3m-�£4m. Sturridge is English, Ledley is Welsh not in the premiership max it would be �£2m.

Velicka imo was not needed and never worth �£1m he never impressed me at Hearts, well maybe when he scored against them for Hearts.

He has done better than players mentioned earlier Ostenstad and Jeffers. Both horrible players imo, I don't care about their previous success with other clubs they have to prove themselves to us and they didn't.

Velicka has done alright but can't last a full match even though he doesn't do a whole lot. I don't think he would be the suitable replacement to Boyd if Boyd does leave, not sure anyone in our squad could replace Boyd's goals.

And if we signed him you can guarantee that value would drop to about 2-3 mill. Not a bad profit for a Bosman though

Worked for Boumsong .

I'm up one house in bermuda if this doesn't go through it seems..... did i mention this constituted a written contract?

Good luck I don't own the deed to any house .

Currently I'm a no, the source may be really reliable but I have to see proper conformation before he's right. I don't know of this poster so I'm a no. Although I did get my hopes up earlier .

My House oh thats a different matter, I wouldn't take the bet

Are either of them regular starters for the Yanks?

Beasley has had about 90 caps for the US, so probably yes. Edu not so much imo, they are quite overloaded there.

Was it wrong that my first reaction to this news was to think of this:

Forgot about that, made me laugh.

Good news, I'm hopeful he approaches everything correctly, Ellis. Maybe more money available if this does happen?

The *** are sticking by their story and have added more, well shit.

Looks to me like a journalist trying to save his job.

Surely a new owner should be given the choice of who he wants at the end of next season without it already being announced?

Yeah I don't get that but everyone else around us practically knew that. I guess there may be a clause that allows a review if a new investor is in charge to make up his own mind.

Talks are supposed to have gone well according to SSN. So I'm with Zappa but it could have been a scenario where something needed to be done. Isn't it 2 weeks since Walter released a statement about his future?

I'm personally not that keen . Never fond of retro shirts and not keen on umbro as a kit designer either.

Usually previous shirts grow on me when a new one is released.

I'm delighted that he is staying on, now to bring faces to our squad hopefully. As has been said I'm still unsure about McCoist but give him a chance and see what happens if all going well with this up coming season.

Didn't Walter do the same thing the last time he was in charge state he was leaving?

Scenario - He flops in England and wants a return to the SPL, but only one club can afford him and it isn't Rangers

 

It's hardly incredibly unrealistic. Players go where the offers are, hypothetical preferences are irrelevant

I find unrealistic, sorry. If he flops in the EPL there is always the Championship and abroad. Don't think he would go there at all.

Not one player who has left here has gone to Celtic barring Miller, so you assume most former players nowadays will go there which I find, silly. There is loyalty to a former club and never signing for a rival. Plus Boyd is a fan does that not mean anything? He would snub them.

Plus signing Boyd an anti celtic type player would that help their season books along?

Although there's no way Boyd would leave us to go directly to Celtic, it wouldn't surprise me if it happened in the future if his next move doesn't work out

How? He isn't Danny Wilson. Do you think all our players that leave in the summer will eventually end up playing for them?

Seems a rather silly suggestion to say the least.

SSN says Celtic denying this.

The Scottish sun really are taking the piss with their stories against us.

Blackpool will be looking at our players imo. Mainly out of contract ones or ones that will be available for a small fee ( or they think are small fees and we don't).

Blackpool won't cripple themselves, Holloway was practically saying that if he gets good money for his players he will sell. Tbh that seems to me that if Adam got a good fee them they will sell, �£4m plus imo.

They won't be spending anything more than �£2.5m on a player. I hate how the game is touted as �£90m, that is what they will make and our whole league won't make that in 5 years.

To put it frankly, either put up or shut up.

I don't really remember him doing these tactics with Porto or Chelsea. It works well with the "italian" teams as they are used to a defensive type of game.

With Real Madrid's reputation it will be one season or your fired.

He'll be on holiday in a cold place . Nah seriously I have seen that he doesn't want his family to go to Turkey.

What is with Turkey at the moment seeing something in Scottish based players? They also seem to have a good amount of money lying around.

It was an ok game, not fantastic. Thought Bayern probably should have scored one but Inter missed a couple as well.

Here's the wee man in his new club's strip!

Nice photoshop job

Its cause he was expected to be a winger and isn't one.

At the time we were overloaded with midifelders who were above him in the pecking order. He had a long contract as well so the money exchanged wasn't great. His performance against Celtic after Christmas for me didn't do himself any favours.

He does and has shown if he is fully fit then he can so a job.

They might be looking at our players .
