To be honest McGlynn's outburst is one of the reasons I wouldn't want him at Tannadice.  He couldn't cut it at a big club and has a massive chip on his shoulder.  He's suited to Falkirk.

That said, it does worry me that the club sees a solution to its problems in Brad Spencer.  I understood Tait as he's got years to go, but Brad Spencer seems like the Ross Docherty gamble all over again.  I can only assume that we are losing more midfielders and Spencer is seen as plugging a gap.

I'd agree that the player himself is likely to have a big say in this still.  If we have approached the club with several offers but don't know whether the player is up for it then we'd be more naive than even I think we are already.

 
The Falkirk fans are lapping it up but in my opinion what he said revealed a total lack of class. It's no secret he hates Dundee United but all he had to say was the bids are far away from our valuation. He's been getting more and more smug these last few months and now I really hope we take the lad Spencer off them.

Reports in Belgium have Anderlecht re-igniting their interest in Will Ferry 

Neftci Baku for Sev. Temple reporting. Sounds all but done.

Not seen any mention of a fee, would guess maybe around the £500k mark?

Been solid Vicko, good luck to him.

Be really disappointed if we are getting less than a million for Sev.

He has been extremely consistent and versatile for us. One of the first names on team sheet. And is almost never injured.

If we lose ferry and sev at the end of the window I fear we will be losing a lot of the experience and drive from the team.

Between the two of them, you’d have to think we’d be getting the best part of £3m. Surely to fuck Ogren can hand over £6-700k of that for a late flurry of signings? “The player trading model” has to work both ways. The best way of getting big fees for your players is by having a successful team on the park.

 
Precisely. The player trading model has worked. Credit goes to Ross Goodwin. Ogren (probably undeservingly) gets to reduce his debt by £2m. He NEEDS to make anything more than that available for transfers. Anything less will run fans against him.

Mad that someone is talked about as a club stalwart after just two seasons. Shows you how crazy the turnover of players in football is now.

Limited credit to Ross Goodwin. Sevelj was signed long before he joined and Ferry signed a few days after he joined.

If anyone thinks J.Goodwin will get £600k for signings unfortunately they are living in cloud cuckoo land. Incomings will go to servicing the debt to the owner,with a little bit of headroom available for extra wages for new signings.
