[AW-WATP 112]

His goal scoring record is decent,not brilliant but could improve in the SPL

I wouldn't be against Harewood signing, but it would signal Miller is indeed leaving.

Got to ask though, what will be more appealing to Harewood staying in the UK on a small wage or earning big bucks in Dubai with Al Ahli...

Why do you think that mate? we have had 2 strikers in Boyd and Novo leave.

Yeh if Miller leaves I think we'd need to bring in 2 strikers

[AyeReadyStu 70]

Don't rate him, don't think we should waste 20K a week on a 31 year old striker who's scored 12 goals in the last 3 seasons.

[InnerwickBlue 16]

I'd welcome him considering our circumstances. He could definitely do the business in the spl. He played well for newcastle from what I remember last season.

Hes not 31 yet

[Guest therabbitt]

He'd probably score pretty well up here, would physically dominate most defences and I'm sure Miller would play well off the scraps he'd win in the air. Not a bad signing if there's any truth in it.

[bombaybadboy08 15,660]

I feel too much is read into a goalscoring record,I'd be more interested in what he can bring to the team,is he Cousinesque(bully defenders)?

I haven't seen a lot of him being honest.

[BlueSuedeSambas 53,793]

I remember reading similar criticism of Cousins goalscoring ability on here when we signed him.

As for Harewood, unless you have religiously followed his career I don't think you can judge his goalscoring record.

In recent years his record is poor, but how many of those games have been starts? How many have been cameoes off the bench? How many have been in irregular spurts making it difficult for him to build any form or momentuem?

Harewood is a player who tends to perform when he feels loved & wanted. His record with Notingham & West Ham when he was starting most

weeks are testament to that.

He's quick, he's physically imposing, he's experienced and he's a perfect foil for Miller.

In normal circumstances I'd be against signing a 31 year old, but we aren't operating in normal circumstances are we?

[Papa Sasac 164]

This is encouraging news anyway. Would welcome Harewood to the club, we could actually have a physical presence up front. Harewood and Miller partnership could work very well.

[papaguy51 912]

I think he'd be a great signing for us.

If we sign Harewood, play with a natural winger and give Davis a free reign in midfield, he'll get chances galore.

HIm recent years his record is poor, buy how many of those games have been starts? How many have been cameoes off the bench? How many have been in irregular spurts making it difficult for him to build any form or momentuem?

You think if he's signed, Miller will be here long enough to form a partnership?

If he does indeed end up here, it's more than likely he'll be Lafferty/Naismith striking partner.

[dezrfc1 26]

cousin type player ?

[GOAT 30,449]

What school did he go to?

I think Miller is here for this season

[rfcShaun 10]

Harewood and Miller up top would be quite good!

Encouraging news that we actually are looking at free agents in our range.

Anywhere else saying anything about it?

[rfcShaun 10]

cousin type player ?

I think so. But Harewood scores more goals.

...And run the risk of another Kris Boyd situation, Not a chance. Miller has already expressed his concerns about the situation, he'll be next out the door if Harewood signs.

[J_RFC87 761]

I would take him

[craigreid 0]

reminds me of a darchville type player

I disagree. That would mean having to sign another 1/2 strikers and it has already been said Smith called the shots around the Thomson deal, he decided that KT should leave and I really dont think he will let Miller leave for what 1m? No chance, wont find a striker like Miller for 1m that will come to us.

Most likely hes only on about 14k and he wont reject a contract for round about the same at his age hes earned most his cash already.

[Jimfanciesthedude 24,552]

another jean claude darcheville

he would be willing to run for the whole time he's on the park, smith loves they type of players up front this time around

Boyd/Thomson and Miller are at different points of their career though, one more contract is all that Miller would need and I could see that contract being at Rangers given that he's been down south already.

Miller realises what he has at Rangers and he'd stay if McCoist offered him a new deal next season.

[TexasGers 96]

Would be a pretty good signing I think, we've needed a physical presence upfront since Cousin left

[butthole 149]

didnt think i would be saying this but given the other players we have been linked with id gladly take him

Miller is still good enough to double his wage down south, he'll be thinking one more big wage could be made. Then I could finish my career back up in the SPL in 3years time if he chooses too.

I severely doubt he'll be willing to take a pay cut to stay at us, and we'll not budge on our wage cap. So that leaves one option moving him on before he can leave for nothing like Kris Boyd.

Kyle Lafferty has already been been touted as a starter next season upfront and if Harewood signs, he'll be his new strike partner not Kenny Miller.
