All that on top of 35-90 quid for "official" match ticket plus the Man U fans have transport from the north - thats absolutely terrible. 4.50 for a fuckin pie!!!! Each team got 35,000 fans which meant a full 20,000 (size of an average stadium) goes to fat cats, media etc etc - After half time there was spaces for about 10 mins with people eating there prawn sandwiches and not returning for the K/off - i find that disgusting as real fans should be in there.

Aye Robson is pish. He is over here quite a lot being a pundit and the "nobody's" who are presenters and pundits of the footy here look at him like he is god. Good luck to McCall, pity he never came to Ibrox.

The "fixed" cup final was absolute rank in the first half that got a bit better in the 2nd half. It was 2 knackered teams and im glad they arent playing in the CL final on wed or we would get the same again with players getting cramp all over the place. Giggs goal should have stood, if not why didnt the ref give Cech a free kick. But my prediction of Draw after 90 mins but chelsea to lift the cup came up.

Until he is proven at a higher league or international level the price tag is silly. For all we know he could have been another Eoin Jess who did well in the SPL but failed miserably in England. If Brown went down south then I really couldnt imagine him make a massive impact at a club, at very best he would be like James McFadden (although Mcfadden is player i like). He seems to find the SPL pretty easy but how will he get on in Europe while playing in a team with no Lennon, Gravensen, Jarosik and possibly Nakamura (if he gets on offer he cant refuse) TBH I was never keen on taking both Brown and Thomson but would have preferred Brown for the right side of the team. But maybe im being slightly naive as I havent seen that much of him this season, ive only seen about 6 or 7 of Hibs games on TV and they were against us and Hearts. The game thats stands out is our 3-0 win when Barry ferguson played him off the park. So i would have valued him at 2 million tops with a further 1.5 million depending on appreances. 4.4 million is crazy.

Newcastle are the biggest underachievers in England. They have a massive support and seemingly endless cash but the dressing room has been rife with problems since Keegan left (or Shearer joined). They have chopped and changed managers and none of them were ever settled. I feel they have always needed a big proven name. I think they have that in Allardyce although he hasnt managed at the top but he has taken Bolton to a top 6 team in the Premiership in the last few years and thats a superb job. This is his chance and I think he will do well and they will be a top 6 club again.

They way I was looking at it mate was Id rather take McCulloch and a few million spare for others than Brown.

I wont comment on Bain - he is appalling. Anyway, Brown may go onto better things but without hindsight we dont know this. Id be reluctent to take him for 4 million and give him Klos' wages in the hope he could make us a profit. I couldnt see any EPL club coming in the a 6 million pound offer for him in a year or 2. The EPL clubs hold the SPL clubs to ransom over players these days. If Celtic want to come in and hi-jack the likes of Hartley, Riordan and McDonald they are welcome to them - they have done us a favour IMO - and if they want to pay over the odds for Brown then fair enough - its a gamble. They have Lemmon, Gravesen and Jarosik leaving and Nakamura might get an offer from down south he cant refuse and all of a sudden they are weak in midfield. BTW the Langfield offer is a joke, if we got him it would be the most embarrasing signing in a long time. Letizi looks like Buffon compared to him.

I hope the McCulloch deal gets tied up ASAP. I like him as a player. He is a strong left sided player and can easy play upfront aswell. If we get him we have him and Adam on the left and gives us cover for a position we have struggled for years. He wasnt out of place in the EPL so should take the SPL by storm and I think will easy get 10+ goals in a season. Id prefer McCulloch ahead of Scott Brown.

Same as most the lads - never saw him play but was aware of him. RIP

I have a sneeky feeling for Espanyol aswell, but dont give a monkeys who wins. I suppose Sevilla may deserve a trophy as they have done well this season. I want the team to win whose supporters are sat in the traditional Rangers end of the ground :devil:

I fancy Sunderland to do pretty well but dont like Keane. Birmingham should get a wad of cash so will be around 15th. I think Southampton or Derby may keep up with 16th. IF West Ham get docked points then Sheff Utd will go down.

Aye Wigan, Bolton and possibly Fulham for the drop next season

Are you drunk today? :uzi:

I said this at the start of this season and it didnt surface but thats due to injuries and not playing him in that position we all want. I want him to stay

5 million - Not a chance!!! When Blackburn can get Benni McCarthy for 2.5 mill who is a champions league winner and scores 16 goals in the EPL, Brown is hardly worth double that. He needs to go onto the next stage from Hibs. He has done a good job for them but his next move will show how good a player he is. Damion Duff and William Gallas were also 5 million pound players this season.

Do you want this thread locked Juff??

I read the BBC rumour page everyday and about 3% of the stories actually happen

As mentioned I cant see this being concrete and its far too high a fee.

I cant keep up with all the moves and rumours. Newcastle - Glenn "soor face" Roeder out / Sam "I want a break" Allardyce In Man Shity - Stuart "im a tosser "Pearce out / Mark Hughes In??? Sven In??? Jewell In??? Houllier In??? Bolton - Sam "I want a break" Allardyce out / Sammy "I'll last 2 mins" Lee In Fulham - Chris "Cookie" Coleman out / Lawrie Sanchez In Wigan - Paul Jewell out / Chris "Who" Hutchings In Next.............

I Dont believe this at all! If he stays in Scotland he will be a Gers.

Injury prone and moody but when he wants to play he is a handful of a striker and most EPL teams would take him. I remember he scored all 4 against Liverpool about 5 years ago in that awesome game. But cant see him coming to Ibrox although I would welcome it.

Long term I agree with this but we cant get rid of that much players as the squad is thin as it is already and we would need to get about 10 players in after that. I dont think Walter wants to totally rebuild a new team altogether. The problem with letting Buffel go is will we get a creative player in return from somewhere? As Gav says if we can get consistancy out of him and play him as the the link between midfield and strikers then he could still do a job. Id keep McGregor but take in a better keeper and have AM on the bench.

Yeah id like to see him or Gough being brought in this summer. I also want to see him get away from Sheff U and Warnock, he has more to offer.

Wright was good at Ipswich but totally lost it at Arsenal and has been poor at Everton. He needs to prove himself at his next club.

I think its an act when he is in front of the cameras. I dont like him coz he is so anti Scottish, and remember when he refused to shake the Scottish players hands at Euro 96.
