"I think he will certainly go down south. He has earned the move. "He has served his apprenticeship with me and his level of consistency this season has been fantastic and it is all credit to James."Views?His loss as far as I'm concerned, if this is true Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poetry_In_Blue 1,043 Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 Think he is a bit overrated and we don't need him as there are other players I would play in front of him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

warden90 0 Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 He can't reject a move to us if we haven't actually bid for him... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poetry_In_Blue 1,043 Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 He can't reject a move to us if we haven't actually bid for him... that thought actually crossed my mind as well, a bit of news speculation once again seeing that there is nothing to say we have tried to buy him.

chris_glasgow 2 Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 Hope he goes down to England and becomes a success The more Scots we have down south or abroad is a good thing for the National team. Hopefully he can break into the first team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozblue 4,330 Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 He can't reject a move to us if we haven't actually bid for him... that thought actually crossed my mind as well, a bit of news speculation once again seeing that there is nothing to say we have tried to buy him.Exactly!...I was scratching my head and thinking I had got fucking Alzheimers disease or something because I could never remember seeing ONE story from Ibrox saying that we had put a bid in for him.

CanadianBacon 2,088 Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 I actually rate this lad and a source at Douglas Park told me that he was earmarked for Ibrox last January but, as everyone and their Granny knows, we didn't have the bish-bosh and it fell through.The lad is a good bluenose too and the fact that I know his uncle (another staunch bluenose of Dennistoun fame) is neither here nor there to this tale.James will only get better and I for one hope that this is just another BBC-led piece of pish.
