Big goughie was outstanding! We should get him signed up. Mot of the players played in little bits and pieces, Gough played 90 minutes. Wasn't the greatest of spectacles, but great to see some of the guys again.

He would be Ok as 3rd choice - for the reserve team

What I don't get is how come we're 'splashing' out on Whittaker and Cuellar, but weren't willing to spend the money on Naismith? WS must reckon RB and CB were bigger priorities. Would be a good signing though and good competition for Hutton

Same goes for Sebo IMO. Buffel's got to be one of the most frustrating players. Can be brilliant but doesn't half know how to shirk a 50/50

It's similar to us getting linked with players like Faubert Naismith etc and then us not offering anywhere near enough money

Just wait for the window. I can see it now 'Smith spotted at Glasgow airport' or the usual last day pish 'Fowler to Gers'

Ahh the wonderful Alan Smith link. I wish the season would start, it's quite clear Dm sorry SDM is not going to spend anything like what we hoped/want. I too would be absolutely over the moon if we got Smith, but to be honest it's going to take more then one player to turn us into a force again

These sorts of rumours really do make you laugh - you have to laugh otherwise you'd cry:flipa: We will not be signing Foubert or Koumas or Naismith and our overall budget for the summer will definitely be in single figure millions. As I said when the story about Foubert first came out, I wait to be proved otherwise.

I don't think we were ever 'serious' about signing Faubert/ As soon as I heard how much we were supposedly spending I thought aye right. We don't want to even spend a million nowadays never mind the 5 or whatever on Faubert. It's all smoke and mirrors from MB and SDM.

Oh well never mind there's bound to be some bosman out there on the cheap we can find instead

ah well just need to wait and see on this one then

The Bordeaux president is saying that a deal has been agreed with a club, but the club is not us.

50% each at the moment. I guess we're a wee bit divided about this one. I think he'll do a decent job, not a great player but he does give his all

bit of a shock this one. Anytime I've seen Barca he has playe reasonably well for them. A bit of a step down going back to Holland. Good luck to him though

Seems to be a good deal for us regarding Svensson. He never really lloked like he would be able to adapt to our game and never once looked up for an aerial 'battle'. Hopefully we will invest in another cb because although I agree with letting Sven sson go it does leave us light at the back.

quite appropriate really, join the rest of the fannys already there!!

I'll gladly eat my words if proved wrong, but are we not going slightly over the top about how good this guy is/could be? To be totally honest I don't know anything about the boy, but Jeremy Clement was a young French 'superstar' and he didn't exactly set the heather on fire here. As someone already said where is this money coming from all of a sudden? Sounds like a bit of a risk to me..................

The rest of us couldn't be that lucky:flipa: Only joking Gribz:cheers:

I think it's about that. So the Jt's are wanting a tenner more than that to sit at their dump, that will be right. Totally agree with a boycott there, not so sure about a total boycott though

Great thread:) Something good to talk about apart from the non events at Ibrox. 1. The 3-1 game at Ibrox when Novo scored a lte penalty to make it 3-1 after Prso and Buffel had put us 2-0 up. 2. For me at Hampden it would have to be that LC semi when Bert Konterman scored the winner from what... 50 yards!!! 3. Best won at Parkhead would be the New year game we won 4-2. Big Mark Hateley scored a couple of goals early doors and I think if memory serves me right we were 3-0 up after about 25 minutes.

Even by silly season standards that is taking it TOO FAR!!

I agree with this if Adam, Burke etc had been in the reserves during the trophy laden 90's they wouldn't have got in the reserve team never mind the first 11. Also if yiou had said to us then that the 'star' summer signings would have been from Falkirk and St Mirren we would have laughed. Oh how times have changed

He got sacked so I'm guessing he wasn't very good :cheers:

I think Darcheville could turn out to be a great signing. Good career in Frnce, not scored a massive amount of goals, but in Scotland and hopefully getting plenty chances put his way I think he'll score a few for us. I was really impressed with Gow in the friendly, but hard to gauge on one game. Depends how often he pleys. Same applies to Broadfoot, I can;t see him playing too oftern tbh. It depends if/when we sign Webster

Yeah but he must of forgot that it's Martin Bain that does the negotiations so unless you take about a 40% wage cut you've got nae chance:fish:
