Gigolo-Aunt Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 JEEZ. Are we spoiled or what. Good player, very good signing if it comes off. I would have taken Gow in a heartbeat before he went to hibernate his career the Ibrox wasteland. Great prospect. I, personally, would be delighted if they both signed. Gow would have been a brilliant signing. We should keep an eye on his career at Ibrox as another few months of being on the bench may change his mind on staying.

Ibrahim Tall Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 Decent but nothing special, if we're serious about challenging the the OF then he is no where near the answer. Probably better than what we have currently though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudimania Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 Not sure if this has been posted, not sure about this guy, looks decent when he plays against us! "Skysports.com understands Hearts have made a beat-the-deadline move for Falkirk striker Pedro Moutinho." Hearts are keen to bolster their attack before the close of the transfer window and they are hoping to persuade SPL rivals Falkirk to do business for Moutinho. Moutinho has been a revelation at Falkirk since his arrival on a free transfer from Penamel and his performances have caught the attention of a host of clubs, with a number of scouts making the trip to Scotland to cast an eye. The former Portugal Under 21 international's current contract expires at the end of the season and he could leave for nothing in the summer. Falkirk have offered Moutinho a new deal, but the striker is keeping his options open. Hearts are now trying to land Moutinho for a nominal fee hoping that Falkirk will be prepared to cash-in on him rather than risk losing him for free at the end of the season. Moutinho is believed to be interested in a move to a bigger club and would jump at the opportunity of a switch to Tynecastle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you remember last year Le Tallac said the money he was offered by hearts was crazy,so i think if Romanov really wants the player he will pay top wages. And how do you know we haven't got another target lined up?.
