now then forever 298 Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Scott Allan has came out and said he wants to play for Rangers, he's a big Rangers fan. Reckon he'd jump at the chance to move from Hibs to Rangers tbh. Mackay-Steven would be a great signing, if we are able to attract a player like him.

Clemdog 39,389 Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 I'd like to see Fraser Fyvie at Ibrox. In the Allan mould of going down South and it not really working out so he would be coming back with a point to prove. Has a bit of bite and spirit about him and is technically pretty gifted too. He still at Wigan? Wouldn't be surprised if Aberdeen went for him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

orange&blue92 1,284 Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Mackay-Steven would be a great signing, if we are able to attract a player like him.If we can attract a player like him?, we have our ex youth player (Telfer) competing for places with him. Good chance I think. Spl is overrated lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSuedeSambas 56,413 Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 He still at Wigan?Wouldn't be surprised if Aberdeen went for him.Yeah but I think his deal is up in the Summer.Yeah I wouldn't be surprised. Selling him for half a million and then get him back for nothing a few years later would be decent business and they've done a lot if smart business since McInnes went there.

SteveJ 743 Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 There's alot of players I'd like to see leave. Unfortunately, no one will buy them. I've heard rumours we're getting some youngsters on loan from BPL teams. This is probably our best bet right now because we can't really afford to spend much money on transfer fees and wages. Most of them are on contracts that are running out in May, thankfully. It's as if someone knew this was the year which would see the need for a clearout :-) Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForeverBlue1872 463 Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 Just like any winger then ? No. I know wingers are inconsistent, but a good game every 10 games isn't good enough. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sergio 1,199 Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 We could probably pick up Scott Allan for 250/300k and he's the one signing I'd look to persue this window or the summer. I think he is only on a 1 year deal with hivs Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loyal-Bear 229 Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 Always said the first player to go for when we can is Mackay Steven. Never seen him have a bad game against us. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sammy cox 664 Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 Im sure just about everyone in the first team squad could leave and wouldnt be missed.As far as anyone coming in thats another story,we have to be looking at longer term returns not a season at a time.Also our main priority is to get rid of the current management team and look for a new one before any real progress can be made on the playing front.

The Monk 3,209 Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 Yeah but I think his deal is up in the Summer.Yeah I wouldn't be surprised. Selling him for half a million and then get him back for nothing a few years later would be decent business and they've done a lot if smart business since McInnes went there.Fyvie is out of contract this summer, would be great business to get him in quickly as I'd imagine every SPL side bar celtic will be monitoring him Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HG5 12,257 Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 Why did we Why didnt we sign allan in the summer ?Don't worry - if we had, we'd have got him ready to be loaned out to Morton by now.Although, it would have stopped a couple of goalscoring passes against us last week........

Is it it lottery because Allan and Fyvie are more than decent players. Wigan seemed a perfect fit for him also.I hope Armstrong goes down there too. Just to see how he fairs, plus to keep him away from them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveJ 743 Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 See tbh, I wouldn't be surprised if a number of them get new deals. That's why we need a manager in now! KMcD would offer them a contract in a heartbeat Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueSuedeSambas 56,413 Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 When we finally get to a position where we are able to build a scouting network again I think it's vital we find somebody who can monitor the lower leagues in Scotland.Dundee Utd have really carved out a niche in that regard over the past few years - Dixon, Douglas, Robertson, Paton, Spittal & Morris have all come from the lower leagues and they are about to sign a 22 year old with 18 goals so far this season from Arborath for £50,000.Ok a lot of them maybe wouldn't work out but if one or two did then we get a really good player for the here and now who can also make us money down the line too.It's a low risk strategy that has high rewards when it works as Dundee Utd are finding out.

cushynumber 25,178 Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 @DBBTB -It's not just finding them. We appear to be shite at developing them and they end up jumping ship or being moved on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
