Would take Zanatta but not May.

We have had more than enough forwards who don't score goals in recent years.

Next season we simply must get a 20 goal+ a season Striker.

like I’ve said elsewhere, I’d take any monies that were put aside for a Safranko bid or for Mays wages & I’d go right in for Shankland.

IMO that’s 20/25 goals there. Pacy & direct

Heard that Shankland has agreed terms with Swansea and imagine they could offer way more in wages that what we can.

So far I've heard we're signing or have agreed terms for: Scott Fox (free agent), Ross Doohan (on loan from Celtic), Liam Smith (free agent), Mark Reynolds (free agent), Sam Nicholson (Colorado Rapids), Chris Cadden (free agent).

Adrian Sporle Left back from Argentina signing on long term contract

JerryDungle · 06/6/2019 8:09 am

Charlie Gilmour, a young defensive midfielder, just been released by Arsenal is another one I’m hearing.

Not a rumour as such but raith chairman saying that 3 championship teams are in for Kevin nisbet. 30 goals in 34 appearances for them last season. 6ft 1 striker. They also want some compensation for him being under 23 - realistically, how many teams in the champ can afford any sort of fee? I'd guess us. Dee. ICT. Partick?

SuperMario · 06/6/2019 9:40 am

No, I am told Sporle is a top, top player - an attacking left-back. There were concerns when Utd didn't get promotion but the club have pulled out all the stops to get the deal back on. He is only 23 and if he does well it could be a win-win for all parties.

After his famous goal he went on to win a cup final against..........................us!

But you are right, it's the first name which came into my head when I saw the speculation.

Ivan sproule of hibs for me

I saw this about Laurence Shankland and to be honest am highly sceptical about the chances of such move occurring. I would welcome such a proven goal scorer, however I would reckon a move to the Premiership is more likely.

All well and good but (regardless of any shortcomings amongst current options) not exactly a priority position atm I'd have thought.

Billy_Hainey · 08/6/2019 11:06 am

While going to Farfir yesterday moarnin, Pavol Safranko overtook me as I was passing Philip's garage heading North. He was on his todd. There was another Arab in the car we me, so we both saw him. Mibbee means phuck-all, coulda just been going for a day oot to Kirrie or Brechin.

Michael1987 · 08/6/2019 11:18 am

He was playing for Slovakia yesterday so wouldn't of been him

Billy_Hainey · 08/6/2019 2:03 pm

Right enough. They won 5-1 did they no. Notice he never scored any.

Pavol started, but was subbied in 47 minutes when Slovakia were 1-0 down, Billy.

bowers · 08/6/2019 4:30 pm

Was maybe on his way to Forfar international airport to get his flight for the game.

Billy_Hainey · 09/6/2019 7:08 am
