Permanent deal for 4 months?

Didn’t quote a timeline just said it was a permanent deal- certainly not 4 months 

wouldn’t be surprised if either Chris Harvey got it wrong or if we were signing him for 2 years- both parties are liable to a faux pas from time to time

Kjartansson going out on loan 

That’s a good move for him. Frame will play, as will bilalovic, lobban probably too, but we have an overload of central mids and he needs regular game experience.

Bear in mind as well folks Nilsen has been linked with moves and palaversa hasn't had a sniff in ages.  Fair chance both of these guys are away in the next few days. I like the sound of the Nigerian lad fwiw. A bit of muscle in the centre of the park can reap dividends in this league and it sounds like he's going to be bringing that.  Derek Rae reckons he can play a wee bit as well and whilst I can understand why people are making Rama comparisons from what I can gather he seems more of a Bisconti type.   And wouldn't that be nice, Bisco was a hell of a player.

Bisconti was a star. Gave not a fuck for opponents’ reputations, and treated them all as if they’d spilt his pint, or been found rattling his granny. 

The sort of coorse, nasty shitehoose I love to see in our midfield. Nielsen looked like a CNS when he arrived, but shitehooses tend to end up shackled and restrained by the modern “there was contact”/“he was entitled to go down” fannydancer brigade.

Davie Robb, Tattie, and Simmie were exemplars of CNS ideology, approach, and semi-brutal behaviour. Bisconti was up there with them.

Souness remains a cunt

Derek Rae’s article was interesting, plus this lad has been compared in a way to Simmie. You can tell by the reactions on line how much we need this type of player.

as has been said though, Ambrose looked good on YouTube. Time will tell, but surely with the amount of poorer signings, we can get it right at some point!

the thistle lad has been mentioned, but he’s younger and I have hopes for Kjarten. This lad is good age, good experience. Hasn’t played a lot of late but in modern football that can happen. Hope this is his opportunity to shine.

 Good read. Includes video.

Is there any explanation given why Aremu has hardly kicked a ball for 3 seasons?

Looks ace. Five year deal.

I’m clinging on to the idea that a CDM might not need as much time to ‘get up to speed’ when his primary function is to be an angry bastard and crunch folk in midfield

[RicoS321]

Will be interesting, if this does go through, how we setup in midfield. We're saying defensive midfielder, but he's not really, not in the same way as Nilsen or Kjartansson (looks to be). He's a runner like Shinnie or Ramadani. Exactly what we needed before we signed Cameron! Against most of the teams in the SPFL, two industrious midfielders will be useful, which leaves one space for Cameron, Clarkson and Armstrong. Armstrong showed at the weekend that he can offer something different with only one runner against low quality teams where we need to score, so I can see his game time still being okay. But he can also play that number ten role that Cameron is in when required too. It's going to mean very little game time for Clarkson and we'd comfortably get by without him. Continuing to destroy his value (while potentially raising that of a Hun) until summer seems a little silly, and we should be aiming to offload in this window if possible.
