Israelis, Palestinians,...even Catholics now? (or Marxists 🤔

This comment made me think about the number of different nationalities we have in our playing squad.

On a quick count, I made it sixteen if this lad from Palestine was to join us.

A seriously diverse bunch

Lyall Cameron agreed a pre contract with the tribute act.  

 

Fucking wee hun scrote 

I'm assuming that will be made permanent today? I'm assuming that the Dundee fans would be as vitriolic in their abuse of the wee hun cunt as we would be? Actually, it'd be good if he stayed at Dundee, only to be punted to their reserves for the next 6 months. Training with the kitchen staff.

Never really thought we'd get him but as I said previously "if you don't ask you don't get"

As TLG eloquently put it "little Hun scrote" another young lad unable to see past signing for an erse cheek. :wanker:

My brother who is season ticket holder at Dens has suggested him training with the reserves and not kicking a ball from now until end of the season would be his preferred option.

He'll probably end up staying and have a point to prove against us in a couple of weeks.

Been doing a bit of reading on him, and by all accounts the Aarhus (AGF) fans - where he was on loan last season in Denmark - loved him and wanted him to sign permanently. 

Not sure why he didn't. Maybe it was a bit like us and Mattie Pollock; ie he wanted to give it one last chance with his club, or they needed him as a back up. He did play a few early games in Europe and was on the bench a lot, so Ferencvaros were possibly reluctant to sell.

Either way, been described as comfortable on the ball (isn't every new signing described as that though?) and his best position actually being on the left of a back three.

Jumping the gun a bit here, but presuming Dabbagh signing, MacDonald leaving, then this is how our squad looks (minus the youth prospects, and the long term injuries). Be interesting to see where Jensen ends up playing, likewise Keskinen. Both arguably being played on the wrong side, but then hard to see Devlin become a back up (he's not as good going forward as Jensen but early signs is he's a better defender) and to get the best out of Okkels you probably want him on the left.

From the below, obviously Sokler, McGrath, Molloy and Vinnie all out for the next few months. Polvara & Mitov not quite as long so I included them.

We were in for Lyall Cameron and with the above injuries there may still be another midfielder incoming. I wouldn't be surprised if there wasn't though.

If Thelin can get the front three balance right, and get the defence to actually defend, then on paper third place and world domination isn't impossible.

Jensen is nowhere near as good as MacKenzie. He looks completely out of place at left back. Not convinced he's better going forward than Devlin either, who's had plenty of assists and goals. Rest I'd agree with. Would like to see more than MacDonald out though. Hopefully Duk or Ambrose.

I'd suggest removing Ambrose's name to give us more options in attack

Wonder if that means Ruby is away 

I don't actually think he'll be away in this window but instead think it might be the summer window.

Actually hearing we might be trying to sign two strikers before the deadline..

Surprised, but then also not surprised.

 

Nationality and name 🤔

Did I see something on social media over the weekend that a £1.5 million fee had been agreed with an Eastern European team, for Ruby? 
 

Also can we not send Ambrose to wherever it was we sent Pape last season?

It was a fake story I believe

I don't think an all-knowing superior alien race on another planet could even turn Ambrose into a footballer. It's like trying to turn gold into a tree.

Angus MacDonald officially has left the building and is now a free agent.

Have said it before and will say it again, thanks for that goal in Helsinki 👍

Good luck loon.

Dabbagh.

It’s understood the clubs have agreed a loan with an option to buy. Final details are being ironed out and he is due to undergo a medical. updated 4mins ago, should be sorted soon
