millerjames398 Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 I have a pair of sondico myself that cost 50 notes but these ones are total mint. Going to use them for 5's. Been a few years since i was in the sticks, but it was always reusch and uhlsport for me...remember getting both Scotland Italia 90 gk strips and a pair of Steve Sutton panther reusch gloves thought I was the bollox[emoji23] *Steve Sutton was the forest keeper late 80s early 90s.

Finlay James Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 The jury is definitely still out on Grizzly, M.Smith, A.Smith-Brown and Stockton. To be fair, they have joined us at a time of relative disjoint. Stockton in particular has made a big step up and would benefit from a settled environment to come in to. Fwiw, I think they will all turn out as big players for us (once Cathro has gone) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, our squad is very thin And really need a keeper If we act quickly to get a new appointment in charge then I would say so. There is still sufficient time in this transfer window for the new appointment to make his own mark on the squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly there's an N.I. connection about it, but even Lafferty said he'd spoken at length with Cathro about his role in the team.

BM1874 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Stockton mentioned when he signed he 'spoke to Austin' Hughes, Lafferty and Smith all said the same due to N. Ireland Roots Randall was a Cathro, unless he bluffed that line of wanting him from the start Not sure about Smith-Brown or Grzelak but I would quite happily say that MacPhee has had a large amount of influence on our recruitment and I am glad he's staying at this moment in time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither club has said what the amount is so only they know obviously. It depends really. There's a big incentive for Hearts to keep the amount unknown. If we received 250k for Johnson (I'm not saying we did) and it was public, then Motherwell's price for Cadden (or whoever) would probably go up.

I don't think my assumption is being unreasonable considering we got him for nothing and he wasn't featuring for us and had obviously fallen out of favour.

Haven't a clue but he was an international player. A player's worth is often determined by how desperate the buying club are and how much they are willing to pay. If pressed I would have thought the sum mentioned above of ?350k would not be unreasonable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norm Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Johnsen went to Den Haag. Now, I know it's according to Wiki but these are their top 5 transfer fees paid. They'd be shouting about it from the rooftops if it was anywhere near ?300,000. 1. Bogdan Mili? ?675,000 2. Ahmed Ammi ? 400.000 3. Aleksandar Rankovi? ? 350.000 4.Rydell Poepon ? 300.000 5.Csaba Horv?th ? 200.000 The fact that their 12th highest fee paid is ?67,500, chances are we got peanuts.
