From some Portuguese site re.sapo.pt

Would have been a harsh red. Plus, the precedent was set with Morelos, violent conduct off the ball is a yellow card. Thought we were shite. Should have signed Mallan he was as good breaking up play as he was appearing to play the final ball. Proper midfielder. Gleeson is slow as fuck and looks soft in the challenge. Ferguson and Devlin and Hoban were decent for us.

I already agreed that a large part of a transfer fee is a players current "package" however that is not the one deciding factor. As has been said some will be the package being offered (what is said player worth to the buying team?), some will be future sell on potential, some will be what he is worth in potential prize money to both clubs, and some will be the bargaining position of the selling club. Or are we suggesting that Scott Brown was on £42k per week at hibs in 2007. Or even that John Stones was on £450K per week at Everton?

I know transfer fees are based on wages (to a large extent) but as has been said we are in a strong position re:length of contract. If Goldson is allegedly worth £3 million, a player who a bottom of the table EPL side has already decided is not good enough, and Tavernier is allegedly worth £3 million to a Championship side... The fee's paid by english clubs for center backs is ridiculous, there is no way we should be going to the table for a potential £3 million offer from any league rival, at this time.

This. They'd need to at least get close to what they paid for Edouard + a % of future sell on fee, they'll offer £800k and Christie (or similar). Arrogant, tight Cunts.

Go to FC United instead.

Shite use of language, from BBC Scotland on Twitter, that will only reinforce the sevco followers fantasies. “McCrorie sent off for a slide tackle”

Time for the EFA to appeal Beckham swinging his leg at Simeone and have the ‘98 World Cup replayed.

Gerrard’s Traynor’s comments fair have them slavering. Seen one lad on twitter saying we should have had three reds. One for McKenna for nudging that mr tattie heed, one for Dom Ball’s violent assault on Windass’s shirt, and another for May after Jack fannied out of going for a header against him.

Games are won and lost in the transitions. These happen all over the pitch. Difficult for creative players playing final balls if there is no one making the runs and the opposition are giving no space. That’s why ours played so many long diagonals. Sevco sat in like a poor team playing a top team because they wanted to counter the fact we would be playing Cosgrove. We were poor today. Their goal was a penalty following an offside that wasn’t given. All their chances were from a hoof forward on a counter. We had one chance and took it. They have all their signings in, I would hope that we’ll have another 3 or 4 in by close of the transfer window. Taking nothing away from the huns it was a very good defensive performance, but if Gerard thinks it makes them a class above he’s in for a shock. Based on today, the tims will stick a 3 or 4 past them each time they play, as will Hibs if our remaining signings are the right ones I’d expect us to also.

You beat a high press with long balls. It was pretty much a certainty we would start with Cosgrove so the hun sat in and attacked on the break. There was no tactical genius to the way they set up after Morelos was sent off, fuck all changed other than their ‘out’ became their wingers. We struggled to break them down and the possession we had was passive but that’s because of the way they set up. The diagonal balls were frustrating but all today really highlighted was how desperate we are for a top striker. Today would have been a day for Rooney his runs would have stretched them and opened space for others. To say sevco were a class above is deluded at best. A Moult or Marquis and we’d have won that by a few despite how poor we played.

Shite performance but fantastic goal from the lad Anderson on his debut. Bit unlucky with his header earlier too.

Just going to place this here... www.stadiumforbath.com About as central a location as you could have in any town. Land would be worth a absolute fortune for housing development.

Did spurs sign someone?

Seem to recall a similar level of arrogance from Bayern in 2008. Didn't they turn up to Pittodrie in their kits, in time for the warm up and leave in their kits after a warm down.

Niasse was the guy, season before last, that Koeman stripped of his shirt number, locker and made train with the U23's, after one second half appearance in a preseason friendly. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2016/oct/11/everton-oumar-niasse-ronald-koeman-roberto-martinez I remember reading this at the time and thinking he came across quite well. Maybe a bit of pig headed belief and misguided arrogance but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Certainly seemed to work his way back in under Allardyce.

See they're looking to loan out the lad they signed from Hamilton in January that they haven't paid for yet... Corrupt.

Read yesterday that some midfielder they signed from League 1 would be getting £4k per week. Would hope if they're throwing that kind of money around in the conference, that they're paying a fee for Rooney.

Was that Johnny Vegas??

He's 26 though?

McCann would say that, guarantee it would be a "massive step up" and "huge opportunity" if it was the huns sniffing about. TBF if you've been watching you-tube videos you've seen more goals of his than I have. Probably seen him play 4 or 5 times in the last 3 seasons. Maybe he just came across that way in those games, local derby etc. It's difficult to say, I rarely travel away (not at all last season) and barely made any home games with the girls team I coach playing league last season Saturday Mornings. So only see players maybe once a season. Maybe John Akinde at Barnet would have been worth a punt, signed by Lincoln on Friday having just looked. Billy Kee was top scorer last season and would probably be similar to Marquis. Then again I though Frear would have made more of an impact at Motherwell, so what do I know? It's always difficult to judge. I remember listening to Phil Brown on goals on Sunday when he'd not long started at Colchester saying the players he had there were of similar and in some cases greater ability than those he managed at Hull in the EPL, difference was psychological.

Can understand why we're looking at them as they are the sort of players Championship/League 1 promotion hopefuls are looking to sign. I'd rather have Marquis than Doidge. Doidge seems to get success by bullying the CB's and I can't see him getting away with that in Aberdeen shirt. Marquis would be more like May minus psychological effects of two potentially career ending injuries. I said earlier in the thread we should be looking at Eisa at Cheltenham, I'm maybe biased but think he's the best striker in League 2 and an age and with an attitude that means he will only get better, but think it's been confirmed they're looking for a fee in excess of £1 million.

Where you hearing that? Would be amusing considering he’s never achieved his dream of playing a European game under the floodlights at ibrox. Cunt

Doidge is an odd one. Been interest in the past for him to play at a higher level, but hasn't taken it. Might be money as Dale Vince pays way more than most league one teams. Can't see him at the village team next season though, might be a bit of a Moult.

Had him on loan at Cheltenham. Like Goldson in the relegation season, unlike Goldson if he hadn’t got injured and we’d kept him I think we might have stayed up. Goal scorer. But not sure he’s worth £500k plus Grant McCann is a massive hun.
