Great to finally get it over the line, looking forward to seeing what he offers. On a side note Lee Bowyer is a fud the way he is going on

Is there no way that these guys could be removed from power, the whole sfa from top to bottom needs ripped up and to start again, do fans not have a say in who runs it, there must be something that could be done. I know any suggestions would fall on deaf ears if it was coming from rangers and it would just be sevco blah blah blah and I think celtic are quite happy to have these two dobbers in place

perhaps Stevie could shed some light on Magennis, seen his name flying around this morning, is there any substance to this, although I think he may offer more than Lafferty in terms of work rate etc, its a really underwhelming signing if there is any truth in it.

by out there do you mean the public domain or the deals are pretty good

For me, tav and morelos should be in the 15-20 M bracket if English teams are coming in for them, we constantly undersell ourselves, these teams have a transfer budget we could only dream of, make them pay the going rate, Tav is English as well, do they not have a quota for a certain number of homegrown players being in their squad

I had heard Motherwell were interested in him, good idea as a makeweight for Turnbull

I have no idea, had never heard of him before, just seen the tweet and had a look at him.

Sun reporting Celtiic are interested in a Player called Christhian Stuani. According to twitter the Sun have lifted the storey from a Mexican newspaper, who have confused Celtic and Rangers 32 year old Uruguayan Striker, according to Transfermakt 19 goals in 32 appearances last year, can play across the front 3 https://www.transfermarkt.com/cristhian-stuani/profil/spieler/59323

Snelders ? not sure if that's to early

agree, the price for hibs is 2 mill, if hearts want him its 750k

Any truth in the rumour about the Croatian boy, could see it if we were punting lafferty and using Grezda as a makeweight

Would be very interested in Armstrong if he was available, good player, although fitness seems to have been a problem for him recently, doesn't bother me that he used to play with them as well, he doesn't really come across as one of them. I just don't see how we would be able to afford it, definitely the type of player we should be after though.

Yeah there is no chance we should be selling anyone to hibs, if he was going I agree I think an English team, top of league one, mid to lower championship would definitely go after him, he has done well for Shrewsbury but he is obviously better than the level he is playing at. Hope he stays though, I think he could be very useful, he won't start every week though, we need to go up a level again, hopefully he can develop as well

Supposedly it is meant to mirror the pinstripe effect of the kit in the 1983 season, and that is rangers crests up the stripes, definitely one to see in the flesh

From the Copland Rd org on Twitter, that looks more official

Yeah I think this is the last year of 32 Red, I hope we get a decent sponsor next year, can make a good strip look great. Scottish football seems to be betting companies or alcohol though

Yeah I really like the home one, the away one is nice as well, could take or leave the third one

Guys, not sure if you have read the new kit thread on FF, one of the posters supposedly had a bit of knowledge about next years kits and ibrox kits on twitter has mocked them up. Look pretty good, especially he home shirt

Always watch these threads with interest, hopefully we can get most of our business done early. I'm glad the Hastie deal is still on, I think he has the attributes to be a good footballer. Stewart I'm still not really convinced about Souttar is one I have always liked but he is prone to a howler every now and again, although he is still very young. Is there any substance in the Skertel rumours or is he just going to be one of these guys we are linked to every transfer window. Would really like to see us go all out, push the boundaries a wee bit to see who we can get in, I realise we have to fill the squad out as well though

We do need to start filling the squad out Davis, Wallace, McCauley, Kent, Coulibally, Hodson and Worrall are all out of contract with us in the summer, I would be hopeful we could get Kent back, maybe Davis, i'm still not sure about him. I'd imagine Wallace will still be on a hefty contract so that will be a lot of wages freed up, I would imagine the contracts of Jones and Stewart will come nowhere near the amount of money Wallace is on a week, it makes sense to have guys that are tried and tested at this level. I imagine we will try and move on Foderingham, Holt, Dodoo, Herrera and Alnwick. and I expect bids to come in for Tav and Morelos. When you look at it like that I think we need a few players but I do agree with DMAA, I would rather we spent decent money on 3/4 players rather than spreading it out. only thing with this is doing this makes it more likely we are going for someone like Graham Shinnie . This thread is digressing a bit so just some random names that came from FF from posters following Gerrard and Beale and guys that they have recently followed on social media. Florian Aye - Claremont Foot Adam Lewis - Liverpool Marko Grujic - Liverpool ( No way we are getting this guy, but it's Friday so hay ho)

Yeah I quite liked Cardoso, think he would have been good in a 3, I just don't think he was cut out for the physical side of the game up here and never got any protection, he was still young as well.

Definitely sounds worth a watch, will try and catch it, he's an interesting guy, very knowledgeable about the game. if it goes like the last two transfer windows, we will do all our business relatively quickly, I'm looking forward to pre season already to see who we get in and if there will be a change in style. hopefully next year will be an improvement again, I never realised we had conceded half the goals at this time last year, that's a massive improvement.

Thank Christ

Not sure if its been discussed on this thread, but I missed the match on Saturday and just caught up with the highlights, does anyone think we would have a valid claim for a pen in the first half when broadfoot slid in with his arm up in the air

I could see them dropping 5 points easily, problem is we will as well, unfortunately for us it looks like the wheels have come off the bus, everyone looks low on confidence and out of ideas
