We definitely need another winger. The new left back can play left mid, but I’m assuming he’s left back, milanovic is a winger and a 10 for what I understand, but I haven’t seen enough to know if he’s a legit winger. topi is inconsistent and young (but I like him!), and Morris is in his last year of a contract, plus I wouldn’t be surprised if we got offers for Morris this summer. Factor in the demands of Europe too. I also don’t think vinnie is good enough or athletic enough for what JT needs and I expect him to be punted this summer. I think we’re also seeing signings that are flexible and can play multiple positions, wouldn’t be surprised if we signed another left back/left winger.

No miovski, damnit. sad but I think that’s true. Plan B Joe Harper?

So who is signing #5? Any names out there? So far a keeper left back winger/attacker and a forward. Attacking center mid next?? Def need a McGrath replacement, a legit 10.

Damn, that’s impressive, Lewis has fairly learned the lingo!

You don’t think bringing McKenna on to play 6 at the back would help us come back from 3 down??

Meh. 30 goals a season number 9 for me please! This signing, even if injured, is an upgrade on Ambrose who must go out on loan or be sold, as is potentially an upgrade on sokler. Still expect a legit 9 to be signed.

Looks like there’s a good chance doohan plays tomorrow.

Have we reached our Aussie quota to play oceanic champions league?

9 goals in 26 games in his first season then only played about a dozen games last year due to groin and knee injuries. I’d say maybe career derailed by injury in the final year of a contract. Worth a free agency punt, scored 6 in 11 for Australia, but most were against diddy teams by the looks of things. Can’t be worse than Ambrose, plus I’d say he’s worth replacing sokler in the squad but I expect/hope more for our starting 9.

I would play Morris over Keskinnen.

And first picks who are gassed and half checked out. Play an entire experimental team of players trying to impress and a point to prove. Yesterday was a total waste of time.

With keepers injured explain why Ross doohan isn’t next up? Was solid for us this season and has played. Not our player now but surely a better option than most.

Ha. I had an identical reaction. Whether you rate him or not, hendry should be ahead of him.

But who will get released first??

Household name there! Young lad, 21 in July. Welcome aboard!!

All quiet on the transfer front. Besides hale and that 16 yr old forward, any other names out there were being linked with??

I’ve watched the penalties at least once a day pretty much. Cannot tell you how proud of the team I am, what a game. But what gets me going is the fans. The noise, the passion, the red army. What an amazing support. I’m assuming it was a 50/50 split but the noise doesn’t suggest that, our fans were outstanding. Congrats to all of you. Don’t take seeing us live on a weekly basis for granted! i was finishing my 6th year at lanark grammar in 1990. Worked in John Menzies all Saturday and taped the 90 final, managed to go the whole day without hearing the score, only for the video to run out midway through the second half of extra time. can’t believe that was 35 years ago. This one has been amazing, never got to see the 2014 league cup final live, watched this one on red tv with my 88 year old dad who was over here visiting. been over here full time since 1995. Ive been to pittodrie 4 times in my life, last time I think it was dean windass scoring the winner against Dundee utd in 1998. Freezing that day, surprisingly. As a fan went to most away grounds, Aberdeen when you’re a kid in lanark was a little challenging to get to. When I come home I usually see us at Motherwell, Hamilton, falkirk, killie, livi, hearts, hibs etc., been a few times to parkhead and was there when Eric black scored his hat trick, and saw us win a few times at ibrox. Very jealous of you all who get to see us in the flesh regularly, never expected to live here and be a ‘foreign’ fan! Amazing the optimism now with a cup win, keen to see if jimmy can move us forward. the Aussie winger is intriguing, very excited to see us pick up a 9 and 10. can’t wait for signings and the new season!

Great news! Like a new signing, who just extended his contract! Read shady mo had 5 goals and 13 assists this year. Last year of his contract, he the next one to extend? Still don’t rate him highly but that’s solid production.

Nisbet or miovski and you choose nisbet. Apparently Ferguson is home sick and weve been offered him on a free. I say no, let’s get Funso Ojo back.

You can wish but I’d say he’d go for 4m plus, prob close to 5. We got 6.8m a year ago, they’ll want as much of that as possible. what’s the sell on for us? 20%? I wonder if Celtic go for him…

I don’t see dorrington coming back at all, much like Madison, even Christie. Good loan but time for him to kick on, he’ll either go to spurs first team squad or a higher end championship team. We have so many glaringly obvious needs and we spent on tobers, an experienced national captain and leader, who will get fit in preseason, plus we must give Milne game time. Molloy covers kneuster, ruby should be moved on. Polvara is good cover too, if he is still here. What I will say though, perhaps we’re getting a good connection with spurs, a little like Liverpool perhaps (or did we get burned with Williams), where we see more loans from them. i do think we’ll seee more of Milne and a back 3 in the future. Not our weekly formation but Celtic, Europe, etc, I think Milne will start more when we do that.

You think they’ll make it to the cup final??

Agreed, a lot more, but they have no manager and a pretty poor squad. They’ve also spunked a fair amount of money on players in recent years that I don’t think are in a healthy financial state. This change doesn’t buy them success and, putting my red specs on, we at least have a manager and a squad to build on, plus plenty of momentum. Still think we could give them a challenge next year.

When you factor in Celtic will pay maybe 10m for a player and rangers need multiple signings, 20m is not a lot. With wise spending I think we’d be competitive with them next season.

I was meaning the starting bid. We’re not giving him away cheaply. Makes miovski look like Leon Mike.
