I dont think we can sign better than Kenny & ACD . We are not gonna get top end championship type players.

Not prolific but at the same time not a poor goalscoring record. Decent age. It's interesting how so many of our signings/links have some connection to the SPL (Watson, Davis, Stephenson). It's clearly an area Fergal built up a real depth of knowledge around in previous roles.

That's 7 in a year, and they are just the one's we know about.Bair looks to be a decent combo of pace, strength and finishing. Hopefully we also consider one or 2 that have never worn a kilt, played the bagpipes or eaten neeps & tatties!
July 12Jul 12 21 hours ago, Lt. Aldo Raine said:I actually think the injury he suffered might've been a blessing in disguiseAfter a very bright start, his influence on matches was beginning to wane, which is not uncommon among young players still learning their trade, and it gave him a bit of a break to then come back reinvigorated later in the seasonPossibly so- we had to find a new string for the bow. We also got Kenny later on, and our main man up top also got better and better throughout the season. Difficult to say either way.Which is what I was getting at in the post in response to the initial assertion.I definitely love to have him back.

July 13Jul 13 I still struggle with alleged targets appearing in the media as it’s asking for trouble. I’d much prefer nothing being said until it’s a done deal. That said our interest in Kenny is long since public knowledge so I’d be very surprised if we land him and I wouldn’t be happy with Celtic hiking the price again anyway. We should move on and set about our business quietly.

We should move on and set about our business quietly.I’m sure it’s not the club revealing potential targets lusty though it’s clear we still have interests in ACD and Kenny at least but in fairness most other speculation has come from unreliable sources. Of course agents may reveal interest but to be fair I think the club have done really well so far in keeping targets quiet. I quite like a bit of speculation though as it adds interest and discussion even though it regularly leads to nothing.

Any story they leak can only attract more interest in the player. We know there is unlikely to be much interest in Randel from anyone thinking of paying a decent fee, if we leak anything on him likely to only attract interest from clubs after a freebie. How many of these stories have any substance to them no one knows but anyone getting excited or disappointed by any such rumours need to give their head a wobble.

Will want decent money and not sure we can afford a high % of budget on a player who only plays say 25 times a season Would be a massive risk but if he stays fit somewhere next season will a great boost for someone , Crystal ball time

I get all that. Personally I'd risk it, not all would & I'm not fighting anyone.What, for me, he did show is the Gulf between the two levels.
