alanmidd 0 Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 A deal has been agreed with Ipswich for goalkeeper Neil Alexander. It doesn't mention the fee. Its around 500k. An expensive back up, but I imagine he's on a lot less wages than Carroll 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazza_8 233 Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 500k? A bit much. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gazza_8 233 Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 Ipswich No.1 and yeah, he's the keeper who was in the last few Scotland squads. Not a bad signing then if you ask me. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyk 158 Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 decent back up IMO......... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrew_2010 0 Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 well that all sounds rather reasonable so no doubt smith will have seen him scouting for scotland! As long as he's better than smith i'm happy - and if he's good enough to push AM then all the better 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gribz 956 Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 He's named in Burleys first Scotland meet up squad next month. Never seen him play myself but doesnt exactly excite me. Might be decent back up as Ipswich arent doing too badly in the Championship. Id rather have seen us try get Niemi as part of the Cousin deal (depending how old Niemi is now.) 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
eightball 0 Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 I've seen an awful lot of Lafferty at the NI games. He's very raw, but he is talented, he'll learn a lot by being at a club the size of Rangers. I think he's only 19 or 20, so we'd be buying a lot of potential. �£3.5m is an awfully big gamble, especially when you think that we are set to get �£3m for Cousin. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
