Scarf above the heid?

Or just pre-emptively getting the thread started after reading the transfer one?

Love his quote about being lucky with injuries, "I've never been quick enough to pull a hamstring".

Hearts are the perfect club to test such luck.

He was out of contract and it wasn’t renewed after their promotion to the Premier League.

 

We were linked with him in the Irish press last month. Played a good amount of games last two seasons at a good level. Would be a great signing

36 in January. :ninja: 

 

That said, 35 league games for Villa last season. Welcome to the end of your career Glenn.

Reported in Evening News now. 

Hearts are in talks with Republic of Ireland internationalist Glenn Whelan as they look to beef up their midfield for the campaign ahead.

The 35-year-old is a free agent after leaving Aston Villa, where he made more than 70 appearances - the majority as a starter - over the past two seasons.

Whelan, who spent almost a decade with Stoke City in the English Premier League prior to joining Villa, is currently in Edinburgh to speak with Hearts management and look around the club’s facilities.

 

Hearts are eager to recruit a robust holding midfielder to cover for the injured Peter Haring and Whelan, who has amassed close to 100 international caps and remains part of Mick McCarthy’s squad, is viewed as an ideal contender to fill the void.

Feel happier if he plays at Pittodrie rather than the alternatives,  IF he signs.

So he’s not signed yet then. Great signing if he does but until I see a scarf above the head pic I’ll keep my man juice firmly in its place.

I replied to his post

Would be a great signing for us but I'll wait until I see the scarf above the head before I get excited.

If we got Whelan and Morrison I may do a little sex wee.

I've allready shoved a bumper pack of Tenna Man (heavy soil) down my pants.

Can he not be registered today if it’s done in time? 

 

Cross border transfers need an extra stage even if, I think he has left club. 

 

"International clearance".

I've heard he's getting paraded on stage before the concert tonight.

Hearing that Levein is en route to Morrisons to buy a pack of pens as we have ran out of pens at Riccarton so Whelan couldn't sign 😯😥

Good to see Morrison has already moved in to his Penicuik flat :pleasing:

I predict it will take him three games before the usual suspects say he is crap and allude to his lack of ‘pace’.
