El Padre™ Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 http://www.afc.co.uk/javaImages/c8/fc/0,,10284~9436360,00.jpg[/img] Craig Brown revealed to Steven on RedTV/Northsound that he tried to bring in a player this week. The manager was keen to sign Icelandic midfielder Stefán Gíslason. However the former Arsenal youngster was unable to join the Dons as he was not released from his contract from his previous club until after the transfer window closed. The manager did say that he might have a look again at the internationalist in the summer. I'm fairly sure this guy was a very good prospect at one point. Capped 33 times for Iceland too apparently. I like the cut of Browns jib more and more every day. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stef%C3%A1n_G%C3%ADslason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave_min Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Can't we sign him as an amateur instead then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manc_don Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Can't we sign him as an amateur instead then? I expected to read that in the article and was surprised it wasn't? Thought once you were released that was it. Unless its a budgetary thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jute Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 I expected to read that in the article and was surprised it wasn't? Thought once you were released that was it. Unless its a budgetary thing? Have to be a free agent at the time of the window shutting to be able to move once its shut. Would assume this guy will get fixed up with a club in Scandinavia beofre we have a chance to look again in the summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenny Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Why on earth would we make this public if we want to pick him up in summer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
