BervieJambo Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 41 minutes ago, RustyRightPeg said: Just done a fairly substantial search on expiring contracts in the English Championship. Some intriguing names, of which I’d be surprised we weren’t linked with at least a few: Andy Rinomhata - 25 - CM at Reading Harry Toffolo - 26 - LB at Huddersfield Josh Laurent - 27 - CM at Reading Josh Koroma - 23 - CF at Huddersfield Reece Burke - 25 - CB at Luton Allan Campbell - 23 - CM at Luton Callum O’Dowda - 27 - LW at Bristol City Izzy Brown - 25 - CF at Huddersfield Yan Dhanda - 23 - CAM at Swansea Tom Holmes - 22 - CB at Reading Fred Onyadinma - 25 - CAM at Luton Adam Davies - 29 - GK at Stoke Liam Thompson - 20 - CM at Derby Romal Palmer - 23 - CM at Barnsley Dom Ball - 26 CB/CM at QPR Aapo Halme - 24 - CB at Barnsley Jamal Blackman - 28 - GK at Huddersfield A lot in here interest me. Brown, Onyadinma, Ball, Dhanda, Campbell, Burke & Laurent would be on my shortlist personally. I‘m pretty certain Allan Campbell is not out of contract and would have better options than us if he was… Of that list, I think both Burke & Ball would both fit well in our team. Not sure I know enough about any of the others, but thankfully Savage will. One player, not out of contract, who I would pull all stops out for would be Jay Fulton at Swansea, who has fallen out of favour there. At his peak at 28, will know McKay & Kingsley well, played for us as a youth (not sure if enough to count under homegrown) and I’m sure his old man would encourage him too. Would cost us a bit, but think it would be worth it. At the other end of the scale and maybe a little left-field, I think Iacovitti at Ross County would be a decent option. Defender in the Halkett mould, left sided, out of contract & only 24 - may not come in as first choice, but is cheap, adds cover, is reliable at Prem level and young enough to improve. Always been quietly impressed by him & think he could make the step up. I certainly reckon he’s a better player than McCart or Rooney at St J.

Absolute Scenes Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 If Alan Campbell is feasible then we absolutely need to jump on this. Salary online saying roughly about 5k. Would be an instant starter and still only 23 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was hard to watch first half in particular, in that the team or coaches appeared to do nothing about it, when the fans could clearly see Akka was being double teamed. Harder to tell second half as that side/ end of the pitch was in another post code, but it didn't look much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s the hindrance of playing a 5-2-3 with inverted or narrow wide men up top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know anything about him, but he sounds a better choice than Stewart, Hamilton or Jamie Mac. According to Transfermarkt he's out of contract. Maybe even good enough to develop into our Number One, he's only 23. I like his impartial Wikipedia page. "McAdams had the game of his life in Ayr United’s Historic win at Rugby Park with some heroic saves to deny Kilmarnock a second goal as Ayr went on to win the match 2-1."

BackOfTheNet Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 I’m not getting impatient (previous threads show that I can be, but not this time), but for anyone who is, remember that lots of players will be off on holidays right now so any signings that may have already been agreed won’t be announced until they’re able to be at Tynecastle with scarf above the head. We may need to wait weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they will have been told some details but not a name. Yeah, I do think there’s a few who get told bits and pieces but it’s pretty vague. I think the days of one person knowing multiple transfers is gone. That’s not necessarily a bad thing as it means we’ve shut up shop a bit and aren’t telling the wrong people. It does make these transfer threads a little more frustrating though. Especially when there’s a few who try to pretend they’re ITK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gregzy2k7 Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 6 hours ago, OmiyaHearts said: Japanese contracts are always announced as one year expiry, even if contract is longer, so not always accurate. He could well have a few years to run. He's also an international, so will cost a few million if not out of contract, considering Furuhashi was about 4 or 5 mil. As a regular J league viewer, I'd be gobsmacked if a player like Ueda signed for us. Interesting, yeah he looks like he is another furuhashi tbh could probably see him go to the Bundesliga or something, is there anyone you feel we could target and would be at our level over there, we were in for the boy ogashiwa but it looks as if he has signed a contract extension until 2024 according to transfer market.
