You are not my type.... have fun with the sheep tonight.

Player/Coach deal...book it

But it's the same damn transfer rules that everyone follows. MW followed them to the letter. No issue

Still taking it up the ass I see..

Why would the media say anything to MW when 1. We let the club know in advance 2. We contacted and signed them during the appropriate window.

For crying out loud....we sent an email to the club secretary and told her in advance that the tanks were being parked on their lawn....

Wrong article. It says a Arsenal scout was at the game to watch no one in particular and doesn't mention a 1millliom quid bid or offer

Started hitting the bottle a little bit early today. The lack of sleep is kicking my ass these days

With the issues that Manchester United has had this season at the forward position, I'm sure surprised they didn't offer 2 million ...

Malmö, Celtic, West Brom Albion and Blackburn Tovers?

A legend already before the first goal scored!

Outside of Arsenal, who else were these two linked with potentially?

Very true. Would rather we kept the War Chest full.

They barely missed promotion last year and they are in the thick of the promotion hunt this year. I doubt their owner and coach will let them go easily given their importance to advancing on to League One

Probably to keep Arsenal away

Looks like MW didn't lie so your accusation is unfounded

And take him off his current research for the cure for cancer???

Ally McCoist disagrees with you...

I would much rather have 38% possession and the win every day of the week...

A true measure will be next year in the SPL.

To be fair, the English Championship is two levels about League 2. Much different quality of players in each league

A sad thing if true....but makes sense given the lack of success in Europe for Scottish clubs lately.

That's about right. A few difference-makers to add to the current squad of players.

That is all great but the financial reality is that the club is currently running at a 7M quid loss per year and while revenue has increased with season ticket sales, so have expenses to cover the items you mention above. Unfortunately due to the overheads at Ibrox, Champions League money (being in the Group Stage of the CL) seems to be the way to get to a breakeven point. Its a catch 22....to get the higher money, you have to spend money on improved players that will not only win the SPL, but will advance to the CL Group stages.

For the club, they get a chance to get a much better look at him during actual match situations to see whether a long term deal is worth it. For the player, they get a chance to train in the Spring at a fantastic training ground and earn a wage. For the player, they can also play themselves into a higher wage based on their individual performance as well as the success of the club (SPL or Europa League via a Cup win)
