Cosgrove was an odd one. He scored a fair amount of goals, but his first (abd second and third) touch was awful. For some reason the rub of the green seemed to favour him as often as it goes against someone like Laurent D'Jaffo: both equally average players. Cosgrove had the build, stature and touch of a Sunday League centreback / sweeper - but so much seemed to fall in his favour 

Play with 10

Hard to say for sure without actually seeing him play a few games but probably the early 90's 2bh.  That was the last time we could afford to sign genuinely technical players.  

Dunno why, but I read that and immediately thought of Craig Hignett. But then read on and realised we've also had the likes of Madison, Christie  McGinn and Miovski more recently 

Interesting article on the Beeb website highlighting which Scottish players are currently available for free. A few could be good additions for us if we are willing to meet their wage demands. 

Upfront theres Steve Fletcher, Jordan Rhodes and Chris Martin have been released by Wrexham, Blackpool and Bristol Rovers respectively. 

In midfield, Tom Cairney has bee released by Fulham, whilst Stuart Armstrong and Barry Bannan are leaving Sheffield Wednesday. Jamie Lindsay has been released by Bristol Rovers and, whilst a return to Scotland is highly unlikely, Liam Henderson has been released by Empoli after they were relegated from Serie A. 

If we are looking to up our Scottish contingent to remain above-board compliance-wise, would any of these fit ?

how quick is he Manc? 

He's quick from the couple of times ive seen him

Morris probably just shades him in an all-out sprint, but I'd say he is one of our top 2 in the quick-category 

McInnes simply added "half time pies" into his contract, and he was in

I've been on an emotional journey with this shirt, and have decided I like it enough now to pay £15 for a fake-almost-real version.

 

What site did you use? I too like it, but not enough to fork out £70

If the offer is good enough any of our players would be sold. Rama lasted one season, that’s the nature of the trading model.

if we get a £20 offer tomorrow Ambrose would be heading to the airport.

I thought you missed the "M" after £20. Then I realised you're talking about Ambrose. As you were 

Yeah a good gig for him. I'll never wish him anything but good luck, he just had faaar too big a job to do at Aberdeen

They all look really chuffed to be in this photo 

I would like to think Bojans loyalty to us would see him NOT go to the Tattiedome. 

But if he wants to rekindle his currently-floundering career and the Tims are the only interested party, he may well take that chance

I'll join you. Collars are for rugby and golf.

Cantona thinks otherwise 

U19 Championships, Spain 5-6 Germany. 11 goals, 3 in injury time, 5 in Extra Time. Now that's value for money!

https://twitter.com/i/status/1936010882800091632 Hah!

So Bologna's reported valuation is £25M, and he's contracted til 2028. I wouldn't be surprised if Napoli bidded £30M for him. If that we're true and successful, we could be be up for £4.5M. Tasty!

What's our sell-on clause if he does move? Was it 20% or something like that?

Not usually a fan of vlogs at the matches, but interesting to watch how it all unfolded from the Celtic end.

 

That's Spider. I quite enjoy his matchday vlogs. He is a celtic fan, but he often wanders around to see other games. Nativity central belt, but he has five up to pittodrie quite a few times without celtic being there 

He's done okay when he's had a chance. Has hardly set the heather alight, and that's evident by his lack of callup to the All Whites, neither whilst with us nor whilst with AEK Athens - believe me, it doesn't take much to get into the All Whites squad 

Or immediately before the first spot kick was taken... "Mitov's on fire, Callum McGregor's terrified" 

A newspaper that sort of rhymes with "scaley sash-cord" is claiming Dons and Jambos are interested in Iraqi international winger Marko Farji, who currently plays in Norway for Stromsgodset.

Article.mainly focuses on Hearts' interest, but has thrown the Dons into the mix

Mate in the know suggested it might be New Zealand international, Nevin Kisbet. 

To get the kiwi accent right, you need to pronounce him Nuvun Kuzzbutt

Just trying to find a way to get that as background for zoom call with Underwriter this afternoon who is a Celtic fan who I know will not take this well. 

Oh, use this one 

Most of those years are for lying to the courts about being a professional footballer 

£10M doesn't even cover their tax bill. But then, that column doesn't appear on the Ibrox EBITDAF spreadsheets. Theirs is just EBIDAF
