He signed yesterday afternoon according to the Inverness courier and he's going to be playing in central defence. That means we need a new right back. LINK

TV news said the appeal is to be heard in August. Didn't catch the exact date though

Who's everyone's least favourite pundit? I cannot stand David Pleat and have to switch the tv/radio off if he is on!

Can anyone explain why FIFA deem it necessary to shoot themselves in the foot by introducing a new ball that behaves like a balloon for the World Cup finals??

I read yesterday the BBC will have 295 employees costing over ?2 million working for them at the World Cup but they still need Chick!! As previously suggested I guess he is going as a BBC reporter and not as BBC Scotland?s football correspondent. I?m sure given his journalistic skills he?ll be tasked with the high profile job giving us the inside info on the Honduras squad. Of course he is also presenting 2 world cup specials for Radio Scotland which I?ll be interested to see how they justify - tenuous players who play for SPL sides interviews I'd imagine!

I was amazed to discover today that Chick Young will be in South Africa to cover the World Cup for BBC Scotland. Anyone care to explain why? Last I checked we hadn't qualified and I'm sure the Beeb will have an army or reporters out there without this idiot getting an all expenses paid 4 week holiday :)

Alan Main might be a better plan than Leighton as a coach. He could also serve as our backup keeper. Just a thought

Saturday 7th August we play Royal Antwerp INVERNESS COURIER LINK

Beaten to the signing of a player by the mighty Crawley Town BBC LINK In reality it's probably more a sad indictment of the financial state of the Scottish game that a player can earn a better wage at a conference side

I'd imagine the fact they've only been offered 1 year deals is the reason they haven't signed yet. Personally I think it's a very strange decision and you can't blame the players for looking for alternatives

Kevin Kyle to Hearts (TBC)

Sorry it should have said 'will sign a 2 year deal today'.

Proctor has signed a 2 year deal (in todays P&J)

From the SPL Rules and Regulations: :( I read the words but they do not compute

With Tuffey only being 23 will Partick not be entitled to compenstaion??

Would much rather have Esson as our No 1 but Tuffey is a decent keeper who doesn't deal with pass backs very well

Reading the P&J today it would seem they are both to have coaching responsibilities next season Article also mentions a deal with Proctor likely next week P&J Link Hopefully once the signing of these squad players is finished we can concentrate on bringing in some players for the first team

I have never rated McBain and I never will. Staggered he got a new deal considering he hardly kicked a ball last season but there you go.

I'd say anything over 30k would be a big money signing for us! Given the current state of the game I doubt you will see many cash transfers at all this summer. Free transfers and loans will be the order of the day.

I think we are looking bare minimum of ?50k for the guy and for reasons already mentioned QotS could play hard ball and raise that figure. How much do you think we could get him for? EDIT: Agent N do you mean Tade of Raith Rovers? I'd hope Tel's being handed twice that from transfer fees... and with Tel incharge we could look a more attractive proposition than Dundee or St J. He'd be a terrific signing for us IMO EDIT: I think 50k is reasonable but would go as high as 70k. I wouldn't get your hopes up. Making any 'big' money signings was ruled out a few weeks ago by Bennett P&J LINK Free transfers for us me thinks

It mentions in today's Courier saying we aren't interested in signing Duff :)

How did the human race survive so long before without Health & Safety regs??? Why wasn't this an issue the previous 5 seasons in the SPL? If pished up away hospitality fans can't behave then why should our season ticket holders suffer

He was taken off twice at half-time!! I think we can do better

Don't really rate Duff to be honest. I though Butcher was in hospital last week getting his knee done?

Pretty poor final especially the first half. Easy win for United in the end, I'm amazed how poor County were. Biggest ever game & they were hopeless.
