not to excited about this one guys he was on loan at Kilmarnock last season I don't think he has the quality to step up to a team like ours (I know he will probs be just cover)

Did he light up spl in a Kilmarnock shirt. No. Did he light up euros in a NI shirt. Never got a game. Great signing, trumps dembelle any day.

Seriously what is the point in signing player's like this, they cost us money in wages and don't improve the team one bit. Something is seriously wrong if we can't train a youngster to act as backup to fullbacks. What the @#$% is the point of having a youth set up!

Luigi have you ever said anything positive about our signings? I wouldn't be surprised if you were a member of the celtic rangers supporters club. I thought hodson looked good when he was playing against rangers last season, Warbs mustve thought the same.

I have to agree with Luigi on this one but I hope I'm proved wrong. Surely we have a decent enough youth player capable of stepping up rather than signing someone who didn't stand out for a really poor Kilmarnock side? If not what about Aird has apparently done really well at right back in a league which is far better in quality to the SPL.

I'd rather we had kept Gasparatto and utilised Ryan Sinammon, that would cover both full backs and cbs.

MLS much better than standard the the SPL! Calm yourself Stuart!

Another good Young player signed, some fans will never be happy, when are people going to get it into their heads, rangers can't compete with Celtic on a financial basis until we start to get some serious money from our non existent retail contract. mark warburton is signing players he knows and trusts to do a job, see instead of slating players before they have even played a game for the club, how about giving the guys a chance, I'm delighted with the clubs transfer business and even if we don't win the league this year, our club is building itself up again, it won't happen overnight, it's going to take a couple transfer windows, let's just get behind the club because our board and management team are doing a great job.

RFC infinity the MLS is full of USA internationals along with a lot of good experienced players from around Europe. It is of a much higher standard than the spl. I don't think anyone would disagree that teams like LA galaxy and Houston dinamo etc would pump every team in the SPL other than maybe a strong rangers and celtic.

Luigi - I completely agree with the extraordinary vision been shown by Brenda Rodgers .

Dembele has had one days training and is subject to an £11million transfer to Southampton as a direct replacement for Victor Waggamama.

If only we were signing players like Pukki, Balde, Boerrigter, Kayal, Scepovic, Fisher, Fridjonnsen, Cifti etc etc etc etc etc etc etc.

Bluepound wrong mousa dembele linked to Southampton. Reckon he's a cracking signing for celtic. Disappointed its not us he's coming to for only 500k.

If we have to rely on somebody like Aird then we are really in dire straits. The guy has pace but little else. Hodson was apparently signed as competition for Tavernier. I must admit I don't know anything about the lad but if the management think he has what it takes for us then that's good enough for me. I agree we need to be careful with overspending while at the same time ensuring we can challenge for the title next season. Looking at the signings so far along with the current squad I think we have done really well so far. I've said already that i'm not sure about Joey Barton. I hope he is here for the right reasons and screws the nut. If he does he could prove the difference between challenging Celtic and not. I think Gilks will prove to be an able deputy for Wes and hope that we can find a solid partnership in defence. Striker wise I would love to see a young fresh striker come in and hit the road running. Anybody know if Alan Shearer has a son about the right age? In my opinion in his heyday Shearer was one of, if not the best, striker in the world.

I wish Luigi was our manager instead of MW. Said no one ever.

It could be worse it could be roy hodgson so let's get behind the managers decision and calm down. Stop thinking about we need to win this n that, let's do what the magic hat always says a game at a time and learn from it.

Luigi why can't you just trust the manager?, it's his team and he decides who can bring or add quality to the squad. If you prefer other teams signing policy it's your right to choose who you watch at the end of the day! But please remember how far we have come since 2012.

Guys i ask myself is this boy as good as aird
Airds home grown and a low wage. i'm with luigi on this 1. we could probably use the wages elsewhere to entice a top striker in me thinks.

Player will be needed through out the season for the hard away games, type of player that will fight for ever ball remember the ever reliable sasa papac no one expected much.

I do agree that we should keep aird this season and I don't know enough to comment on the boy hodson tbh but I trust he is good back up!
