Jesper Karlsson loan deal been ended by Bologna and they are sending him to Utrecht.

Thank fuk for that Happy Days 

That'll be the guts of £10k per week saved.

Hopefully we can get two or three semi competent team players for the wage we were paying that maverick

I had a while back heard it was closer to 15 we were paying him but that is unconfirmed.  And 2bh I wouldn't like it to be

That would have been the alcohol. The boy was knocking back a serious amount of booze.

He was pals with a boy I worked with at the time, who would knock back anything put in front of him and I know first hand McKinnon was his equal on that front.

Fair play for remembering him though, I had banished him from my memory. 

We've had some shyte over the years. 

 

I used to work with his (now deceased) dad, a building industry lecturer, who bore the same name. 
He was very loyal to ‘Raymond’ but limited any out-of-school tales to those of Clough’s fondness for booze, which he said was one of the reasons that the loon got out of Nottingham. 
I thought he’d be a good signing, but I’d been equally enthusiastic when we signed Tommy Rae from Firhill in 1968…..

On the Karlsson front.  I thought he started well then settled into our squad and got worse. 

I've said it for some time, the culture in the squad is rotten and has been since dels last couple of seasons. 

New faces come in , we have a revival and then they settle in to the same pattern. 

What needs to change because it can't just be managers.

We need a core group to establish culture. Without that the team has no identity. We have shinnie and Devin, and that’s pretty much it. Hard to gain success when you patch a team of random folk together every year. Players like Watson, the two current loaners, Milne, lobban etc could have a long term influence, but we desperately need a long term shinnie replacement/a captain to lead by example.
