With the signing of the Reading lad, this was obviously another shite rumour from Ab-Mad, sorry lads.

Newer version of David MacNamee

Was great in his early days at Utd and Celtic but career tailed off due to continual injuries.

Still say we need a central defender (Webster) rather than a RB.

Mark Wilson to join on short term deal (staying in the Highland Hotel tonight) in the stand for the game tomorrow.

From Ab-Mad

Hayes? Jonny Hayes? or Melvyn Hayes?

I've seen nothing from the former to justify keeping him on. Gash since day 1.

Billy Dodds rumoured to be part of the management team.

Deal or No Deal?

Deal

Must mean Brown has a replacement lined up

Brooner now saying it's unlikely Anderson will play again this season.

Which would explain why Derby paid up his contract.

Given that tax evasion is illegal, as well as HMRC getting the money they are due next month, or not if Rangers go tits up, will Strathclyde Old Bill be feeling Sir David Murray's collar, resulting in him being wheeled into Bar L?

And that Hearts out tonight too.

I presume Blackman is Cup tied for the Cup semi

Jim Gannon got it.

Daily Express reporting today that we have got Blackman on loan. Think he's signed a new contract at Blackburn, but the've put him out on loan.

On appointment at AFC, he said he wanted to manage the top teams that he'd played for.

That's Aberdeen struck off the wish list, Celtic of course will always remain, Newcastle, Hamburg, Morton and Bristol City still to go.

Looks like he may be a free agent, Orient must have been his last club.

Morning paper revealing the Orient defender could be heading north. Was supposed to be going to M'Well on a short term deal, but Broon has presuaded to him come even further north.

Great stuff, and brings Hibs back into the relegation scrap.

St Mirren won today but ach well, we did and that's all that matters.

Wander if that is why he left M'Well sharpish?

In an obvious response to my ultamatum of a few hours ago, according to RedTV, he's expected this afternoon, says Broon.

I don't like the smell of this deal. Does McNamee live 30 miles up a single track farm road? I challenge anybody to not be able to make it to an airport  these last 2 days, and not be able to make a flight to ABZ.

I accept that he made an attempt to get here last week and was thwarted by conditions, but I get the impression his agent is touting him around other interested parties now.

If he's not here by 5pm tonight, fuck 'im.

You'd think it was Scott of the Antartic that we are trying to sign - has he made it to Base Camp Dyce yet?

Craig Brown poo poos this in the EE this lunchtime.

how do you get that impression?

Jist that he says it will be safety first for the foreseeable future, shore up the defence, maybees sneek a goal.

Just saying, like.

Obviously will be without the pace he once had, but I get the impression that Broon wants to go with three central defenders and two wing backs, so McNamee and Davidson would allow that to happen

Aye, as long as I don't get caught up in gridlock on way home on monday night.

Milne has an SPL restructuing meeting on monday, either him or Fraser anyway, so will be interesting if either or both make it back in time.
