Twenty three miles it’s covered today, I believe.

Arrives tonight by the light of the silvery moon.

Whip-crack-away, whip-crack-away, whip-crack-away....

 

Not acceptable training practice these days. More is the pity.

Stage, surely. Hence the slow progress. 

Maybe we are shipping in more deadwood, on a slow boat from China.

 

Steel / Concrete / Deadwood...*

Transfer work will obviously be going on behind the scenes, with minimal leakage to the scummy Scottish press - as it should be.

 

Thankfully*, we've got the jokes about Saudi Arabia and China to keep us all entertained though.

The contractor for the Copland Stand works is shipping the steel, and  precast flooring, etc. not the Club. 

At least I hope so. 

It would be a compounded, and unnecessary, risk for the Club to have nominated sub-contractors, or, suppliers. 

 

(Maybe that is why the guy got sacked!! Christ!!)

Please God, no. Loan signings do nothing to help our player development policy. It's what the other SPL cubs do; it's like having a long procession of guest players like they do in testimonials.

If we didn't loan Sima last season I don't think we win the league cup or compete as long as we did in the league, or in Europe.

The exception that proves the rule; anyway, Sima is young with sell-on value if we could sign him.

Joan Jordan ... a 30-year old CM (AM/DM) with 2 years left on his contract. Played a massive 18 games last season, missing but 8 games due to injury. He seemingly is not needed by Sevilla ...

 

Our current central midfield (and defensive midfield) is composed of Diomande, Barron, Raskin, and Dowell. We could also play Sterling there, and some youngsters (McKinnon?). I doubt we will break the bank for him.

 

Adama Traore ... a 29-year old right winger with a year left on his contract. Played 27 games last season, scoring 14 goals and assisting 5 more. Our right wing is truly a barren wasteland, if you exclude Cortes, McCausland, Wright and Matondo, Lowry, Hagi, and Cantwell as options ... And we are willing to spend Euro 4m?
