AJS

James Vincent deal confirmed - 1 year deal, with option of a 12 month extension.

Flights to Wales direct from Edinburgh - mystery solved

Im also pleased to see such a high number of players before pre season even begins. Hopefully by June 9th there will be a few more added to it from down South and most of pre season will simply turn into the squad starting to gel.

That team could win the SPL

Agree with Libero, the contracts offered to the likes of Andy Shinnie and OTJ couldnt have been too different in terms of wages offered up by the likes of Dundee and St Mirren. Harkins would be a great signing.

Unfortunate news, i would have liked him to stay, one of the best passers in the team by far. He can be replaced though.

Jim McAlister was a player that impressed me at Dundee last season, someone who can play the Shinnie area, always pulled out a performance in big games too.

Great news and a real statement of intent from the club.

Ex Dundee and Dunfermline striker Jake Hyde, got 14 goals for Barnet this season but Barnet have been relegated and he is out of contract, might be worth a punt.

Here it is! Vigurs.JPG We won...but we still cant win!!! Blaaaaah

After the season thats just passed i cant help but have total faith in Marsella and the management team when it comes to identifying players, the permanent signings we made all became key members of the team and all chipped in with some telling contributions despite their lack of experience at this level. All the lads coming in may be young and untested at this level as well but with some of the experienced heads around them coupled with the experience Terry and Mo bring to the floor as manager and assistant manager respectively i see no reason why these guys cant have the same impact.

Did we not have the same problem when we tried to sign Terry Gornell? It has something to do with whether or not he has been offered a contract by his current club or not.

Seems like we are working hard to get our business concluded as soon as possible, having most of the current lads already signed up i assume will have helped them focus on new targets. Glad we are strengthening the wide areas, apart from Doran no one really impressed out on the flanks this season and thats us already got some decent options. 1 or 2 strikers are required now i think.

Could always start another 2 word story

Lyle Taylor at Falkirk would be worth a punt, 6 foot 2 and on the back of a prolific season at 1st Division level. When it comes to transfers in Terry we trust!

I want the treble ... if this is not achieved then Butcher must go.

We may have missed out on Europe but its been a hell of a ride and ive enjoyed every minute of it, The idea of us being high flying in the league was totally surreal therefore left me with no expectations. Just to have been part of it has been a pleasure and despite the outcome of our final game yesterday, the support was no different. A great atmosphere coupled with the party mode that we went into at full time was typical of the support away from home this season. I genuinely thought we would get relegated last summer, if you had said to me we would finish 4th i would have laughed at you ... and probably slapped you too. I wont forget this one for a long time.

As well as Warren and Meekings we have Devine and Cooper pushing through, frankly we dont need him. He is a good defender and would be a great option to have but given the stage of his career and his current circumstances having just returned from injury he needs regular game time and he will not get it here. Good luck to him, its just a pitty he couldnt get more games during his time here.

A bit gutted about Hogg, i thought he might have stayed another season, he's been through a hellish 18 months and it would have been nice to see him play his way back into the first team and return to top form. Hope he makes it though. Apart from the 2 PCA's and Hogg im not too bothered about anyone else, looking forward to seeing who we bring in over pre season.

Never got a fair crack imo, and was persisted with as wide player, a position he never looked comfortable. Good luck to the boy. His goal against Celtic was his defining moment.

Noticed Graham Carey is being released by St Mirren, not sure why he's always looked a really good player, can play midfield and left back and has a knack for screamers, might well be worth a punt.

i actually think Reguero is better than Samson but knowing Shiels he will go with Samson to begin with, im willing to bet Reguero was gonna be joining under the impression that he was number 1, if i were him id be feeling somewhat disgruntled right now.

Will never forget his free kick against Ayr, not many strikes spark a full scale pitch invasion, good luck Gav.

Looks like Samson has rejected Motherwell in favour of Killie, seems like Reguero's chances of being number 1 there have hit a snag.
