Lord Beni of Gorgie Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 My source tells me there is a possibility of a signing today, tomorrow and the following 2 weeks. Thereafter we will be active in the January window, but since its not the best window to shop in, it will not be too much. The source also tells me we will be doing this all again in 2023. Source finally wanted to wish all Kickbackers a Merry Thank goodness for midnight tomorrow, free agency, anything a bonus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No problem if they don’t and just play domestic matches but would be better if they could play both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lone Striker Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 1 minute ago, PapaShango said: For one you can’t play them against the team they are from and secondly not keen to develop either of their players for them. imo, neither of these have much relevance given the urgency we now have. Losing against the OF is fairly common (unfortunately), and 9 months at Hearts isn't really much of a gift to an OF club who now seem fixated on buying experienced players way beyond our level anyway.

Bozi Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 I certainly hope Savage is a bit more composed than a lot of the folk on this board, he will have players earmarked, spoken to, potentially agreements in principle in place, I don't think he's been sitting on his hands all summer but biding his time to make sure he gets the quality we are looking for and sometimes that's worth waiting for. My interpretation of the "being more aggressive" quote is less about panic buying and more to do with giving a "take it or leave it, we will move on" final offer on the table. What is making transfers more difficult at all levels is the upcoming world cup,there tends to be quieter transfer windows in the lead up to a world cup and it goes batshit mental afterwards. Players may be wary of moving now and not making world cup squads, or shortselling their value if they catch the eye. Take the Korean lad for example, had a tough time in Europe but still desperate to get back, having a very good season and could have an eye on breaking into the Korean team, if he comes to Scotland and fails to settle his chance may go, stay in Korea and he goes to the world cup his value may rocket....I get that not all of the targets we have will be international players, but the guys their current clubs are looking to upgrade to may be, which leaves them stuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyNic Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Is there a Transfer Deadline Day thread yet? Praying that someone doesn't come in with a 'too good to refuse' bid for any of our players.

Even with the kids available we are short on squad options in key areas.
