Transfer Rumour Mill - Summer 2012

[Madbadteacher]

And Cadger has proven himself a great signing?

This was never going to be the time to judge how good or bad a signing Anderson has been.

[glasgow sheep]

O'Connor's contract not being renewed at hibs apparently.

Worth a look?

[TENEMENTFUNSTER]

Looked pretty poor every time I saw him, his early goal in the semi aside.

 

Total waster BUT, is he any worse than the duds we already have?

When, then?

[maverick sheep]

When, then?

 

Next season.

 

He was only reaching fitness at the time of the semi, and that was the season over.

Is the quite astonishingly fucking obvious and straightforward answer.

I like Browns wee dig that teams in the championship will snap him up. I'm sure faddy will be looking to the premiership

[glasgowdon]

We're also looking at Tesselaar of St. Mirren (available on a free).

 

Couple of Buddies I know are gutted he's leaving. Good going forward and crossing. Would be pretty happy with this.

[glasgow sheep]

Atleast we are making the right noises I suppose.  Still no word of a full back however

That is a PR statement if ever I saw one.  The club are taking a very big gamble here by making this public.  If Hayes ends up signing for someone else, there'll be a whole lot more disillusioned folk unwilling to purchase season tickets.  It would be disappointing because he's a good player.  If the club show as little ambition in the transfer market this season, and by that I mean failing to sign any players that turn my head, or signing crappy tenth rate players like Uchechi and Chalali when there absolutely has to be better players in the lower leagues in this country, I wont be at Pittodrie next season.  AFC are as close as dead to me as they've ever been.
