Then Moyes will bring him to Ibrox when the takes over from McCoist. Conspiracy, you say?

Here is the full thing.

Just another article with no quotes from Celtic and a 4-day old quote from McCall. Probably cut-and-pasted from some Scottish rag.

Are they not a Rugby League team? Still pricey, but rugby shirts are more expensive.

No. But I get him to tell Murphy what it's like to have to go out on loan to the SPL to get a game after a big move south.

In the old days it was A.N. Other that used to do the business. Wonder what ever happened to him?

It's currently not allowed (in the SPL), but there is an increasing demand. If we all shut up, nothing will change. If we keep asking, then the post-Hillsborough knee-jerk reaction might be reversed. I have never heard anyone claim it would increase attendance, but it might improve the atmosphere a little. What would improve the attendance is 3pm kick-offs for every game on s Saturday.

Of course there are exceptions - McCarthy being one of them. I believe he was a better player than Murphy when he headed south; although that might not be a popular view on here. However, there are 10 times more payers that struggle for a season and come crawling back up to Scotland after one season.

One more year of regular first team football in the SPL, IMO, will benefit him more than one year of training with Leeds Utd. reserves. You only need to see how far of the pace some of our loanees from England have been to see how that can take the edge of your game.

That's only true if he actually gets game time. There a countless examples of young guys who move south and barely get to kick a ball. That's the danger and why guaranteed first team football is better for development than bench warming. Why do you think guys like Blackman and the Duke came up to Fir Park on loan? Because they were gagging for first team games.

"behind the scenes" –adjective 1.happening or conducted out of view of the general public Which, unless I missed all of the announcements, the notice on the official site, McCall's pre-match interview, the BBC website preview, the Evening Times precursor article, the reports in the papers, and the segment on Sky Sports News - is pretty much on the money.

Good to see these things are going on behind the scenes.

Killie caught Utd. on the bounce from a bad Euro result. I think we'll come out winners in this by the odd goal in three.

We are a selling club. If someone offers 1.5 million he could well be gone. However, McCall is not an idiot and I'm sure he has a few irons in the fire for this eventuality. If he has a striking equivalent of Law lined up, I'd be happy enough. We sell top players every couple of years or so and, despite the regular panic, normally seem to get by without them.

Bear in mind though that there are also many of us who can't go most weeks but who would love to be able to participate in community ownership.

She won't be the one drawing up the details, so no worries on that score. It's about time you buried that personal vendetta - the record is well and truly worn out. How about you comment on the actual plan when the time comes?

Not exactly a nightmare of the recurring variety, though.

Window open until August 31st, I believe. So plenty of time to lose players and get new faces in. Just another quirk of starting the season so early.

Boo. 10 scouts watching him today - was hoping he'd have a stinker.

Needs another 6 inches at least.

So far, we have had Craigan giving the ball away in the danger area and the defence struggling with crosses. It's good to be back

Hidden. Didn't appear until I fired up my proxy. Peter Houston is analyst, and is doing a surprisingly good job so far.

The percentages of old fuddy duddies etc. at Fir Park as probably the same as most places. The difference is in total numbers. 10% of the crowd participating at Fir Park is a lot less than 10% of the crowd participating at the Stadio Olimpico.

The philosophy:

Compare this year's sales figures with last years and see which ones are greater?
