By the way, always get a lovely feeling inside when Brucey gets asked about transfers and says he doesn't talk about other teams' players because he doesn't want them talking about his. What a man. Anyhow, a little bit of tension between Robertson and United would be very helpful as I think this lad would be a great signing and may well become a top player for us. And i'm in the camp of unrestricted hate whenever I see Figgy on the teamsheet so.... Saying that, From what little we've seen of dudge he looked a good larker as well and would love to see him come back and cement a first team place!
Campbell just signed a 3yr deal with crystal palace, on the Cardiff city board they reckon we failed with a last minute bid to hi-jack the deal.
Dundee United fan here, it's sounding more & more likely that Andy Robertson could be heading off to you guys as Bruce seems extremely keen to get him. United have said from day 1, even before the first intrest was made in him, that it would cost £3million to get him and im delighted that we are able to knock back bids of £2.5million + add-ons. However I wouldnt be surprised if even by the end of today you have a bid accepted for him as you seem desperate for a LB and the Euro deadline for your game is tomorrow i think? We only signed Andy last summer and from the type of person he seems to be he wont hand in a transfer request, he has went from playing amateurs to being Scotland 1st choice LB in the space of 12months and he realises that Dundee United have done well for him. We are in no need to sell on the cheap and £3million for Scotlands 1st choice LB is still a bargain especially when your being linked with Rose for £6-8 million (if reports are true) Anyway if he does end up going to Hull I hope he can keep progressing and become a valuable 1st teamer for you boys
Nice post Big K. What did you make of your other starlet Ryan Gauld you recently sold? He must be a talent if Sporting Lisbon slapped a £48m release clause on him, do you think he was sold too cheaply?
Thanks. Yeah we got around 2.2 million + a ton of add-ons so quite happy with the deal for him, never seen a player so raw with so much ability and hopefully he can reach his potential. good move for him as if he gets the playing time the style of football should help him instead of getting kicked in the air every other week up here. I read a bit into the release clause placed on him and Sporting are doing this with every younger player they sign, very unlikely any of them will be sold for near that amount but they had problems in the past with youngsters and there contracts. They had this problem when Bruma left for Galatasary, think they still got around £10 million for him tho
Cristian Gamboa the latest name from the Birmingham Mail - supposedly we are battling West Brom for him.
Looks like Mark Oxley might be on his way to Hibs for a season long loan. http://www.hibernian-mad.co.uk/news..._keeper_mark_oxley_on_loan_836843/index.shtml
Here's the link to that Birmingham Mail article: http://www.birminghammail.co.uk/spo...ews/west-bromwich-albion-facing-late-7498607?
Brucey's married for god sake tickles, show some restraint no matter how much you know whats going on. This isnt the place for those secrets....
I wouldn't sell him at all, we should slap a huge price tag on him like everyone else in the Premier League regarding English players.
Not bad for you Chazz. Talent in this case means Quality footballers.!!! btw.... the fish n chips last night were very good.
