Rumour.

I was really looking forward to seeing the McKirdy “machine gun” celebration - preferably against the Gunts. Still to see it 😕
 
Reports that more clubs have entered the race to sign £9million rated Josh Doig. :sm113:

Sadly doesn't look like SJM will ever get a bigger move as we'd have been due money for that as well.
Might not be good enough to get a move to a big club but if he moves at all it would be still be for decent money and we'd get a wedge. 2.5 years left on his contract so if he ever does move it'll likely be next season

Newcastle this window or next 🤞
 
Arfield would be a great signing btw. Unsure why he would want to swap a couple of more medals to add to his career to play for us on loan mind you?

He is a very good player and exactly he type we need just now. He has the ability and big match experience at a high level to benefit us. He is also not getting his game now much for Rangers, so considering the money he will be on with them can you see him upping sticks and moving to Easter Road ? Hope it happens but I have my doubts.
 
Fair enough. I wondered whether a post loan contract offer might sweeten the deal for him
I kind of see what you are saying ie we will offer the player a long deal in the summer if he comes on loan now. Problem being I can't see him being short of offers to try push that through with the huns.

That's what we did with Jamie Murphy - loan & signing/contract as part of the same deal.
 
I like the idea of Arfield but only to see us out this season and obviously ditches the salute. If he's looking for 2-3 year deal he can bolt.
 
Same. With his wage expectation and age I can't see him being a long-term solution. He's not Franck Sauzee.

To be fair not every signing has to be a long term solution, that’s what’s wrong with the strategy right now.

We should be looking for these type of quality, senior pro’s to help the young players develop which getting results. Someone like Campbell could learn a lot from training and playing alongside Arfield.
 
I hope Hibs sign him, permanently all the better. Good age and experience, good player, brings a bit of height too. Everything we need.
Not an observation on his ability, went to a Philly Union game last year, he was on the bench and didn't get any minutes. Level of football was poor. Was a wee bit disappointed he didn't get on as I wanted to shout a bit of abuse to a fellow countryman!!
