absolutely disgraceful from united

Apparently there has been contact with Partick on the Erskine/Lawless swap - no idea if it's going to happen though.

For those who thought Higdon might be one to go for Sheffield have agreed to tear up his contract - but I reckon if he comes up here Hearts will be where he goes as they'll need to replace Sow.

tell you what though just seen michael higdon has had his contract torn up!

Have to say I'm not over fussed if Souttar goes providing the money is right

It's plain he doesn't want to be here (given the contract he knocked back, when we weren't even in the relegation mire) and frankly I don't think we need someone whose not committed in the side during a relegation battle

Pretty much sums it up.

Hearts will be a good move for him and get him back on track.

As for the rest of the lack of activity, can't say I'm surprised, although I still think something will happen later tonight, but can't see it being anything to excite us.

If we really want to bide up then we need new players in. Not that difficult to comprehend. We all know that. There's been plenty time to identify players and get them in.  Absolutely baffled at the lack of signings.

We needed a decent centre half, a pacey winger and a big striker at the start of the season. 6 months, 2 transfer windows and 2 managers later, we are still waiting. Shocking. Do managers not get paid enough to do actual scouting these days or something????

Damage was done during October/November/December when we fell further and further behind.

Try persuading a player to sign for a club that's 14 (now 11) points behind.

Try persuading a board to commit to a players wages at SPFL levels when they might be facing a massive income drop next season.

This was always going to be a month of moving people on and bringing in loan signings.

Have been disappointed with the loan side of things to be fair - begs the question, does Mixu have knowledge of the right markets, does he lack the right UK contacts?

To make things worse! We have accepted a bid of around £150,000 for souttar, this is fucking outrageous considering how much we payed for telfer, Thompson has once again jumped at the money, disgraceful

I can't believe we've accepted 150k.

I can only assume we've managed to wangle a sell on percentage into the deal or something.. otherwise WTAF?

We would have got at least that for his development fee in the Summer (probably more).

We aren't going to sign anyone

Thompson out starting on saturday

Fuckin areshole of a man

I hate transfer deadline day.
