FarmerTweedy Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 4 hours ago, LarrysRightFoot said: I know that’s why I mentioned Chelsea, as they are the obvious example. My other point is the rule doesn’t appear to do much to help the academy to first team pathway for clubs. This increased subs rule this season for example should have had a caveat the extra subs must be academy/under 21 players. EDIT - just checked Wiki and according to that Chelsea have 21 players out on loan I think the point of the rule is to stop clubs like Chelsea being able to hoover up loads of talent that they can't use, but that they're then able to control who that talent does actually play for by deciding which clubs they're willing to loan them out to. They probably also distort the market for other players as by hoovering up loads themselves, they leave the other clubs competing with each other for a smaller pool of talent than there would otherwise be!

Not wanting to put Ross county in the same position that the currants have put us and Souttar in. I'd really like that. Signing other clubs best players is a good strategy, already tried and tested at this level and he's more than just treading water at a side you don't really expect to see do too much (no disrespect to RC). I think a few others have mentioned him already, but he'd be a great replacement for GMS. Young, hungry and rearing to go. I'd go so far as to say, could we do a deal this window with GMS going the other way? He's from up there anyway, so might not be reject it.

BackOfTheNet Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Let’s stop saying GMS can be used as any sort of makeweight in any deal with County. He turned down Aberdeen in the Premiership to play with us in the Championship in no small part due to being closer to family. So there’s no way GMS would agree to it. I understand the thinking, but it’s not going to happen and several people have already explained why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do wonder who will be the first to stick their neck on the line and say someone is coming in or that no one is.
