I heard Dross was doing work for the SFA, jobs for the boys. He was supervising A licence courses at the Oriam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was a list of players they want to sell and players they are looking to loan out. They just sold Richarlison for £60 million and according to their local newspapers are going to spread that money right across the team. A young French Striker who is only 20, Harry Winks, Jesse Lingaard and a couple of Chelsea players is just for starters. The are off to the USA for a pre -season so it will be interesting to see if Simms travels with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tcjambo Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 33 minutes ago, Masonic said: Ronan + Levitt would cost around 500k Shankland another 500k Simms on loan maybe 300k in wages Kelly from motherwell another 400k could all be got for basically nothing since we are getting the hickey money which we wouldnt have been expecting not to mention Final and Europe money and all the wages saved with players leaving 400k for Kelly is a waste of money. If we get Simms I would also be looking at other options than Shankland. Maybe a young centre forward like Hornby, who seems to be doing little in Reims right now and might be a good foil for Simms? We should definitely be looking at Levitt as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't see it enough from him though, hope he can kick on this season 👍 has pace to burn and needs to work a lot harder, when the team doesn't have the ball quite a few do though, so he is not alone In that department.

Will never moan about being played out of position, in fact will relish it. Takes being dropped as a sign to work harder and get back in. Managers dream if I’m honest.

Jambo92 Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 Gino could be a massive asset for us in Europe, he has that unpredictability and seems to relish the big occasions, this season will be an absolute squad effort would be silly to let pace leave our front options.

I think the situation you are talking about is the best argument for a proper reserve league because that way you get to see when Conor Smith or McGill are ready to come in to the first team in place of Halliday ………… if you see them week in and week out in the same team then you see the point where one of them overtakes Halliday in terms of what they could do in the first team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes he is the archetypal winger, and its not always their fault, they rely on the team to get them the ball in the right areas at the right times. He’s done ok up front away from home where his pace can cause problems. Quite raw and I think we could use him a bit like Hibs did with Boyle, hope he has a great season and gets a new deal.
