  1. Am I just old and special ed, or are both red tv and the club site pretty shit? I sign in to see games and scores, news, highlights etc and it’s not smooth, or overly simple. Perhaps it’s because I am on my phone but i don’t find either site particularly convenient.
  2. Anyone at the game??
  3. warming up in Christmas wrapping paper today?
  4. Ambrose Rubi rich jensen gyemfi tobers sivert polvara ?
  5. Surprised topi is playing, thought he’d get an extended summer given the u21s.
  6. And he bought a kilt. Guy is fired up for the season! like a new signing?
  7. I also don’t know the role yengi and sokler are going to play, a couple of friendlies may give a slight idea? We could sign someone tomorrow or it’s a loan at the end of August, either could easily happen. Given the secrecy of all signings to date, pretty much anything can occur in the next 6 weeks, which is still a long time for the window to still be open. Personally I’m hoping a new legit signing, the next miovski, and would prefer it not to be nisbet. While he’s decent I’m greedy and want better.
  8. Anyway, unlikely it will ever happen. When are we signing a 9?
  9. Like I said, highly unlikely/impossible, but I’ll pick holes at your response. I just wonder if we ever look at transfers this way. We have a player trading model and in the states trades are very common/the means of transfers. Very different logistically, and I agree with what you said in the sense of salary being an issue, unlike here, in the nba for example, where salaries are out in the open and you have to match salary. However - Lennon is out of contract in a year. What was 2.5m in January is less 7 months later. 1.5m plus 2 players and a sell on % may sound about right. Doesn’t matter what como are paying for other players. are Jensen and polvara high earners? I dont think so. Can Motherwell afford them, maybe? Both have an upside too, I think they’d be good signings for Motherwell despite their limited playing time with us. Unlike the states where players for the most part go to the trading team, footie players have to agree to a team and Jensen and or polvara may have no interest in Motherwell. That’s a major stumbling block. i don’t see him going to rangers, and at Celtic I potentially see him going the way of David Turnbull. The comparison to Ferguson is a good one. Be a star with us, become a Scotland regular, then move onwards and upwards. Not happening I know, I’ll go lie down.
  10. Im too lazy to look, do they do the stainless steel travel mug?That’s a sure fire winner, plenty like me with a coffee addiction. Pretty sure we’d be buying miovski if we sold these in the club shop.
  11. Highly unlikely/impossible, plus it’s the American sports influence in me where teams ‘own’ players, but what if we offered Motherwell £1.5M (using that since it was mentioned with Adil) plus polvara and Richard Jensen plus a 20% sell on for Lennon miller. I like polvara and think he’s solid but he sets them up with a replacement, and I just don’t know where he fits with us. surely the Lewis Ferguson comparison is a good thing to sell them on? I don’t think £4m for a player in Scotland with 12 months left on a contract is realistic, and this is a creative win-win offer.
  12. I’ll add to my own comment about center mid. I’m assuming we play with a 6, 8, and 10 positions, and I do expect big things from Abdul at 10. I also expect a step up from palaversa after a full summer and preseason and he’s settled. Plus, wonder if we finally get a step up from a fit and full preseason we polvara. Im happy with what we have, but if one leaves I’m not too disappointed as none have locked in a starting role. Thing we have good competition in there. May the back of say punt Richard Jensen and keep the rest. Milne ruby and molloy are all good over in the middle plus devlin Jensen and molloy can all cover left back assuming the new signing is the started. being greedy you could add a 4th winger but I’d say that’s Duncan, Vinny can leave. you can add Boyd to center/attacking mid, again a needed Scot, but for his development I think he’d benefit from minutes out on loan. up top I think Sokler and the big Aussie are ok, we need the main 9. Ambrose goes out on loan or sold, add an existing young scot as the 4th option/quota. Think we could also see milanovic at 10 or 9 too.
  13. I just don’t see another central midfielder coming in, with shinnie sivert Clarkson polvara palaversa gueye kjarten and adil, I think we are covered, unless one or two move on. With the exception of maybe kjarten, all expect to play. The only hole is another 9. Even with wingers, we do have Duncan and vinnie, and I expect Duncan to stay simply for being Scottish/home grown.
  14. Careful. That’s like saying Willie miller was an overrated central defender and ash Taylor was clearly better. miovski is legit. Imagine what he’d do for Celtic with the quality of players around him, rangers to a lesser extent. While I don’t pay much attention to dressers, he missed a fair few chances, maybe he scores 25 and bojan scores 40…
  15. Cheers. I didn’t think stockley or cosgrove were bad, especially cosgrove who scored a bunch. Although I do think that was the end for Mcinnes since our style of play went to shit and we were a horrible watch as I said.
