Neon Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Checked wiki was sent to us on loan from Kaunas, he was with FC thun prior to joining them and never got a game for Kaunas - must have been a signing we made so we didn't need to pay his salary. Eventually ended up at Scion after we sent him out on loan to Nurnberg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BackOfTheNet Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 22 hours ago, BackOfTheNet said: So, as we approach the last couple of days of the window let’s see if I’m up to speed on the ITK chat: 1. We are looking to sign a defensive midfielder who will be “****ing quality” 2. We are expected to sign a striker that will be someone the fans will know and who they’ll be very pleased with 3. If that striker falls through, Osman Sow is second choice 4. Slovak striker Jakub Sylvestr has been spotted in the stands and could sign also as a free agent, although apparently isn’t first or even second choice 5. Although that suggest there could be three signings, only one has been touted for tomorrow and another for Wednesday (of course Sylvestr is out of contract so can be concluded after window shuts if need be) Is my reading of things correct? If so, if nothing is expected until tomorrow should I just bugger off until then to see the latest chat? (And this wasn’t a mockery or go at ITK, I appreciate their comments as I love a bit of transfer window excitement and intrigue, just a genuine request to see if I’m up to speed) ? So, just to keep up. The above is technically all still up to date, however the latest info is that the defensive midfielder apparently is currently with F.C. Sion, the “****ing quality” comment would suggest it’s Kevin Constant, but then others have suggested the player is 25 so that would rule him out. The age narrows it down to two players who appear to be relatively unknown (which of course doesn’t necessarily mean they’re not “****ing quality”, just that we don’t know) And we should have one signing today if original predictions are to come to fruition. Let’s see. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Old Tolbooth Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Is it just me who thinks the Swiss football league is probably on a par with our own league, and Sion are bottom of that league, and yet we're trying to sign a player who can't get a game for them?

Nah it's better to be honest, though I'm loathe to support any UEFA ranking it's the '14th best' in Europe, Scotlands barely 27th ahead of Kazakhstan. Basle are a big part of that but all of it.

Basle are a big part of that but all of it. I know the Swiss national team are miles ahead of Scotland at the minute, but you never hear of their club sides (Basle apart) doing anything in Europe, and with Sion being bottom of that league (albeit only by 3 points), it just got me wondering how good their players can actually be. Don't get me wrong, they're bound to have a few decent ones, but if the one we're after can't get a game for them, then it tells me that he might struggle here too, that said, he's going to be coming from a much better side than Callaghan did so you never know.

John Findlay Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 We operate in the market we can afford. For us that means looking at the second tier of leagues like Germany and France and the lower halves of Switzerland, Portugal, Spain and Italy. Now the trick is getting a gem. They are there but, finding them is the difficult part. The other snag is there are a hell of alot of clubs shopping in said market. We have to work extremely hard to get in the players we do. Patience is the key in all this and patience is the one thing alot don't seem to have nowadays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just noticed the 3/5 beside Switzerland in the rankings would of been their qualification numbers. Top 3 in the league qualified and then 2 missed out. Not sure who the other one was. Anyways, 3 is better than just Celtic qualifying like we do. Third qualifying round is also sometimes better than our second place team does.
