Findlay been outstanding for us, fast, can play with both feet and likes to get up the park with the ball at his feet. Thank god he's signed up for a few years but I'd be amazed if we don't get offers. Kelly is the future. Agreed on Findlay. I rate him higher than McKenna to be honest.

That's because we had a simpleton as a manager who left one of the best left backs in the league at home, who is up for Football Writers YPOTY. Still astounds me that that thick cunt never called up either Taylor for cover and instead thought Shinnie at full back was a better option.

PASTA Mick Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 I think the following could all be available on a free from Championship clubs - David Marshall Jordan Archer Alan Hutton Liam Palmer James Morrison Charlie Adam Paul Coutts Adam King Lewis MacLeod Craig Bryson Darren Fletcher Craig Conway George Boyd Fraser Preston A lot of those could be good signings for teams in the Scottish Premiership. The one that stands out to be is Fraser Preston. I think he could have a similar impact to what Middleton has had at Rangers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd bet a fiver that McLeish had never even heard of Taylor. Considering some of his odd call ups (and non call ups) I think McLeish was relying on the brains trust of Grant and McFadden to suggest new players. Dear oh dear.

PASTA Mick Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 Charlie Gilmour has left Arsenal. I think this is good for him and he could be a good signing for a lot of clubs if they are willing to give him games. I can see rangers going for him.

Strangle conclusion you've come to there buddy. Gilmour is rangers-daft, has a good reputation and would be free/low wages. Rangers would be daft not to consider it. I expect a few teams will be after him. He needs to go somewhere that he has a chance of playing next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KirkieRobRoy Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 I see Jack Grimmer has been released by Coventry. Remember him? Me neither. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lion Rampant Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 Both Brighton and Sheffield United interested in McBurnie apparently. Would be good to see how he gets on in a higher league. If his current manager leaves Swansea for Brighton as expected he's probably better off going there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

csinclair Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 Apparently Tony Watt has turned down a new deal at St Johnstone so he can sign for CSKA Sofia. Disappointed he never lived up to the hype he had as a teenager Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll be at Alloa or Falkirk in twelve months time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coventry are in financial trouble again and looks like they will be needing to find a new home for next season after falling out with the stadium owners (meanwhile the stadiums other tennants, Wasps, agree a deal with Vodafone over stadium rights). Former Scotland youth international Dominic Hyam won Coventry player of the year this season, and talk several clubs are looking at him.

He's been playing first team football on and off since his debut in 2010 aged only sixteen (twenty five now) so it does feel like he's been around for ages. A couple of bad injuries since going down to England have messed up a once promising career. It's possible he could prove to be a worthwhile signing for a Scottish Premiership club.

I've not seen Cov this season (sick of it all to be honest) so not seen Grimmer this season but he's done well for us. Some important goals. At one point i thought he'd soon be in a position to be talked about for a call up but this season he's not started regularly. I think he'd do alright in the Scottish Premier for a team around the level of Motherwell or Livingston. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
