Apparently the Bosnian striker has done a U-turn!! 

Preparing myself for some panic buying soon. 

Bullet dodged i feel. In many ways.

A Striker who doesn't score (we already have one), who appears to have a shite attitude going by the remarks made by his former Widzew Lodz, Manager. And who seems to make a move every few months.

I sense there are a few Eastern European agents handing over brown paper envelopes every few months, when it comes to him.

Now, trying to get more money out of United at the 11th hour, no doubt.

Tell them to swivel and quickly move on.

Whats the story with mcleod? I thought he was out of contract

 
They'll have offered a contract so the compensation clause kicks in, whether he's accepted it......

 
That makes the most sense i suppose, ties in with him looking like he doesnt want to be there although that may not be true at all. Does anyone know how he got on at southampton, it obviously wasnt a success to the point they wanted to sign him but i remember him scoring a double earlier in the season and heard nothing since.

Dont know anything about the boy dewar but adams seemed to have a decent spell at kelty? and is surley worth keeping and putting out on loan at a higher level so he can be recalled if an injury happens to new keeper/dave. Hopefully next season he could push to be number 2 or even 1. Im assumimg newman is now away?

 
I will probably catch myself out here. I dont like to be negative about young players. Rory may well be disappointed the Southampton thing hasn't worked out but that in itself may say something. I Don't pretend to be able to comment on how a player feels from a couple of seconds video but the circumstances may feed through. I've read comments about his time at forfar but I've never seen anything really hard and fast to back them up other than perhaps his playing time.

Bizarrely I was talking to my Mrs work colleague who has an Alloa ST. He said Charlie was pretty solid most of the time but had the odd moment. Only to be expected for his age I suppose.

I agree with your comments about ruaridh. I think he really suffered with Keltys mulgrew appointment shambles but a good learning experience for him. I do worry he might struggle to get a good loan this season which may be complicated by our European place. Perhaps he'll be around to the January window.

Newman is away.

None of us know what's going on, for all we know United might have tried to change the deal. We just don't know.

Let's see how things play out, if we get him great, it not we move on.

Odada getting another chance too 😳

While i think a full pre season may have benefitted Allan Campbell, I’m not so sure about this anyway.

Isn't it the club who called him back as opposed to the agent? He must have been keen to travel

 
It usually means a club elsewhere have put a better offer on the table at the last minute. We move on.

New kit photo shoot tomorrow and 'new' player modelling it.

Returning player, initials are LS.

EEK.

Very interesting that tucked into United's update on 5 players signing contract extensions, it says that Rory MacLeod has been offered a new deal, but that a further update will be provided in due course.

So, obviously the contract offer was purely to secure a development fee, and it looks like he will indeed be surplus to requirements. But who is gonna pay a fee for him? 

 

Teams apparently after young stirton

Least he’s under contract until 2027.
