Almost guaranteed? How so? Decent market to trade in if it meets the clubs' ambitions, but, hardly a guarantee.

28th June. Ideally, yes, but, the transfer window hasn't even opened by then.

The move isn't happening - from the horse's mouth so to speak.

Well, it's not. That's from the lad himself...

Anti-Motherwell feeling can hardly be used to describe a stint on a youth-development loan...

White man speak with forked tongue...

I wouldn't be Quite possibly our best player on his day, but, we are talking about a soon to be 34 year old who is injury prone. Let that sink in...

At £8,000 maximum per season they've been signed up, similarly, we'll be recruiting from other clubs' youth programmes.

Hardly. It'll be one for the development squad.

I concur.

It's in that far flung place - Hamewilldaeme. It'll be Dalziel Park for thrills.

Not for long...

You do by being the only one available as others have withdrawn from the squad. Starting to think our projected for 10th place budget is poles apart from the similar outlook of St Johnstone's 10th place ideal.

Should really bookmark the 'SPL quality' goalkeeper posts. This board will go tonto when he's required to play with something at stake and not end of the season bounce games. Here's hoping we sign two proper full backs to protect him...

Reckon he'll be returning to the Sheffield area. As for your closing words... A bit more than the likes of ourselves could afford? Seemed very happy with terms recently

One of the best? Surely you jest? His touch, yes, can be genius at times, the odd telling through ball & brings a balance to the side, but, his primary role is to defend & that's where his game is lacking & now injuries have caught up with him. The Scotland chat is a red herring given the shoehorning of mould firm right backs into the left back berth as history suggests - I still doubt he could have disposed of any.

Pillow talk

That's a new one... Same as Ben Hall was recently? 3rd season in second tier - Hibs will have an inflated squad culled & costs cut club wide this year. Concerning if our talent are swayed before we even have them any first team experience, but, guess that's for another debate.

Very likely...

See Jack Leitch has announced his departure. Took a career threatening knock at wrong stage in his development. For all Scott Brown has regressed at the San Giro - I've yet to see anybody have him in his back pocket like he did.

He'll have a wry smile no doubt.

Hibs? Never in the running. Couple of clubs from South & West Yorkshire though...

It's as if Josh Law & Steven Hammell never played all season...
