Guest neesy111 Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Just to let you know the chat up here north of the border is that Rangers are talking to Newcastle United about offloading Allan McGregor (GK) on us. And that Kris Boyd rumour's still totally dead either from what I gathered. Any other Scottish Mags around who saw this evening's Reporting Scotland? we are not in the market for another keeper we have 4 after given leave's still on the book's with krul and forster highly regarded Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest johnson293 Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Can much happen over the weekend then, or will everything kick off on Monday now? It's all up to whether the staff'll work weekends. There's nothing realistically stopping us signing players on Saturday or Sunday. I'm sure Duff signed on a Saturday or Sunday, didn't he? With the deadline being this Monday, clubs wont want to lose two days of negotiating/Medicals, etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 I'd imagine even if the officials don't work weekends, they will have been asked to come in just for this one considering when it is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the deadline being this Monday, clubs wont want to lose two days of negotiating/Medicals, etc. duff signed in july in 2006 Aye, and the question was whether the staff would work the weekend to sort out a signing - whether its the summer transfer window or the winter one, the point was that people were around to complete the Duff signing on a saturday/sunday. EDIT: Just seen gdm post - if he signed on friday, he was unveiled on the saturday then. Still dont think teams will want to lose two days of potential negotiating/signing just because its a weekend.

Guest Heneage Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Can much happen over the weekend then, or will everything kick off on Monday now? I'd imagine the weekend being used to agree Fee's. With Monday being a frenzy of agreeing terms and medicals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Heneage Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Watching Hamburg. Colin Benjamin, or Jerome Boateng (Brother of Kevin Prince) both I think would be damn good signings, be nice to get some real beasts in our defense, real physicality, we tend to get bossed by powerful strikers. Veloso's been left out of Sportings squad, he's not injured but this isn't the first time he hasn't been called. He's just coming back from an injury.

Broadsword Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 The Times say we're close to signing Ryan Taylor and an experienced centre back. And that's from Caulkin who seems to throw these comments out every now and again without any fanfare and is quite on the mark most times. I fully expect an experienced center back to tarrive.

Guest Stephen927 Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Not sure how desperate we are for centre backs, though I guess if Coloccini were to miss a game, Cacapa would sharp remind us our need for another defender. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
