That's wonderful news.   He is your 26th man, Steve Clarke. On the up in his football standing (which is getting close to being established player at Serie A level, especially he can score/assist again this season).  Higher potential long term.

I said at the time if his agent has anything about him he'll have a release clause at a set fee.

You’d hope so, aye, but the article I read made it sound more like Verona would be keen to sell as a way of offsetting some of the losses from going down. Either way, he’s likely impressed by managing to get a few goals in a team that has really struggled this season.

I’ve really appreciated the contribution of Dykes over the years, but I’d take Bowie over him as I think he does a lot of the same things but better and at a higher level.

Chilikoa-Mullen being linked to Burton Albion. I'm not really sure that's much of a step up.

I imagine he’ll have a bunch of options as he’s out of contract in the summer.

Barry Hepburn has signed for Stirling Albion. Don’t think he’ll ever live up to his potential but hopefully can put his injuries behind him

West Brom are the first club to test Falkirk for Barney Stewart.

He can do better than English league 1, he has had a very decent season and looked good against the Jags the other night. Amazed he was still in under 21s as he seems to have been around for ages. Aberdeen would be a good move but Robinson never seems over enamoured with young Scottish talent (look at how many Scottish players were in the St Mirren side he has just left)

Nottingham Forest interested in Rangers midfielder Calum Adamson after a succesful loan at Alloa. 

[syecosse]

Evan Easton who left Celtic as a youth for Sheff.Utd, has been released by them, was on loan at Crusaders.

[Hertsscot]

Some reported interest in Leon King from half decent clubs (e.g Wolves). Bit surprised as he was struggling at Rangers. Did he look better at Ayr, or just agent talk?

[syecosse]

Brandon Forbes has been freed by Norwich, went down south a couple of years ago for 300k after scoring on his Dundee Utd debut, played last season on loan at Conference sides Tamworth and Kings Lynn, still only 19.

Was tipped for very big things. First team at Tannadice at 16 and remember a great game he played at Ibrox at centre half at that age. In hindsight maybe he should’ve stayed but..

Still has time on his side though. Could be a wee bargain for someone.

Dundee's Luke Graham rumoured to be attracting interest from Salzburg, Schalke and Valencia. And Portsmouth.

Austrian Bundesliga, yup can see that. Newly promoted 2 Bundesliga team, can see that too. Top 10 La Liga team, that's surely a couple of steps too far at this point. Portsmouth in League 1. Terrible move.

Portsmouth are championship not league 1

I had it in my head they were relegated but you are correct, they were not. Championship is okay, but a tough league to get established in.

Bournemouth are chasing Queens Park striker 16 Daniel Edzii and Hearts keeper Finlay Jamieson 16 both have other admirers from down south.

Weird one, rumours about a break in his contract after 12 months are doing the rounds 🤔

Yes I would take that rumour with a punch of salt especially after the season Hearts have add. They are on the rise whereas Rangers internally have problems are in a poor place in comparison to Hearts.
