It's entirely possible that Oxford have requested the 'undisclosed' statement. ... or what Melvin Bragg said.

I think its technically a 'registration' deadline, so would assume the deadline refers to the team doing the registering at their respective FA. So 12 deadline for us for incoming players.

Was about to post something similar.

Flow saying we're looking to BUY someone before deadline.

Its hard for the club as there's no guarantee another offer will come in etc. No player is bigger than the club and there comes a point where £x00,000 is far more important to the future viability of the club than any player. On the day Johnson signed we'd have all bitten of your hand for, for example,£500k. If it is Oxford, its extremely unlikely its going to be anything approaching £1m.

IF Johnson goes to OU, it could well be spun as them smashing their transfer record. 500k, whilst lower than some may have hoped, is decent business.

Aside from some apparent Aston Villa correspondent, is there any suggestion an offer has been accepted?

Chalmers, Tait and Cadden did well, as did Clay and Lasley. Johnson was good, but then threw in the towel/spat the dummy. I'm going to go Chalmers. 1st half he dealt with Forrester/Tavernier pretty comfortably. Second half similar until late on. He was getting forward, retaining the ball and finding a man when he could. Prob best performance I've seen from him.

Yeah, Clay was good yesterday, a few loose passes and/or wrong options sometimes, but that's to be expected. He ran himself into the ground and was visibly knackered. Even at that, I was a bit reticent to sub him off as he was fulfilling his role and disrupting that may have led to concession of a late goal.

Rangers had huge amounts of the ball but did nothing with it. Never particularly felt threatened. Thought we were fairly comfortable and was quite happy for them to play sideways passes around the middle third. Foderingham had good saves from McDonald and Johnson. Same old frustrating story really.

Against my better judgement, I'm en-route to get a ticket. You never know, I've seen us getting the odd win/draw at Ibrox before.

We were chasing late in the game and a cross came into the box.McDonald, in his wisdom, decided to punch the ball Maradona style into the net (except far more blatantly) ruin our attack and give away a free kick in what can only be explained as schoolboy petulance.

Oh well. That's that then.

One-two's all the way, then a wee dink over the keeper by Ainsworth.

Where does it stop? Is there a value threshold, or will we receive £500 if he moves somewhere for £10k later in his career?

As far as I'm aware uefa have (probably quite correctly) never stated a definitive position on the Rangers farce and probably won't until something requires them to. Even then they'll probably leave it to the SFA.

I thought a sell on fee was only applicable for the next sale of the player, rather than ad-ininitum? ETA: Didn't he leave on a free anyway?

I think we should be looking at over a million as well. He has an attribute which can't be coached - Absolute pace, which isn't everything, but when you add in end product which he's been producing recently you've got a decent player. To go down south for less than a million given the money being thrown around there would be disappointing.

We'd likely need to beat them at some point in the competition. May as well do it now

BOOOOOM Johnson

If Dundee United win v Dunfermline they are guaranteed through.

No doubt they'll have a reporter at Ibrox for the pumping they're currently getting from Burnley. So we're currently 9pts and +4 gd. Another goal would settle it down a bit, but good to go through at the mo.

3-1 Moult again

1-0 Johnson
