At todays game, met a good friend who knows a lot, says we have loan to buy offers for Lammers matondo Daviies.

He says offers not far away from what rangers would accept,

I feel that is the main 3 players we need to move in then Wright if possible.

Wonderful news, particularly Lammers and Davies.

Great news John - the clear-out starts now - with hopefully few more to follow! Must assume from that statement that a CH will be incoming too with bit of luck?.

Lets get then gone then John.

Outstanding news. Also heard we have a £500k offer table for Barasic. Would be absolutely delighted if all these come to pass. Thanks for sharing, John.

£500k for barasic must be taken.

John, do you think that someone will have an interest in Lammers and Matondo? Hope so.


8.) 02 Jan 2024
02 Jan 2024 19:51:45
Agreed re taking the cash for BB. That came from a guy with decent connections to the club but wasn’t sure who the club was. Would be pleased to move him on for cash and off the wage bill.

My star in the sky I watched his interview with sky there he never said that atall he said we don’t have the most money in the world we can’t buy whoever we want he never said once that we would only be in the loan and free agent market!

Hope your right john.

John, does your good friend run a rag and bone man operation and need a horse to pull the cart?

Is this where lammers fits in?


12.) 02 Jan 2024
02 Jan 2024 20:15:15
Great news, hopefully in the summer we can ship the rest. Jack, Roofe, Dessers, Souttar, Lawrence and Wright.


13.) 02 Jan 2024
02 Jan 2024 20:24:32
John that would be dream land for us. Lammers to go and mato do whos wages are wild.


14.) 02 Jan 2024

Great info as usual John.


15.) 02 Jan 2024

Hi John, heard the same re Davies, big wage looking to move on.


16.) 02 Jan 2024

Lammers and Matondo won’t go anywhere in this window. Can only add a maximum of 3 new players to euro squad. Fabio silva will be one. If Barisic goes Ridvan will be another. That leaves one space. If we could get rid of Davies and bring in McKenna that would be ideal. Also get rid of Scott Wright.


17.) 02 Jan 2024
02 Jan 2024 20:42:15
I’m not sure a loan to buy solves anything. The clubs would not necessarily take up the buy option after the loan spell. If we buy replacements now we may end up with a ridiculously huge squad. Better to sell them at an affordable price now.


18.) 02 Jan 2024
02 Jan 2024 20:47:36
Ibrox, I’m told we have offered him to Verona.


19.) 02 Jan 2024
02 Jan 2024 20:49:06
Would be great if true. There are plenty eejits like he who shall not be named that see things in players that simply aren't there or think they can change them for the better - bit like when burd thinks they can change a rogue like our Tel! :) fingers crossed.


20.) 02 Jan 2024
02 Jan 2024 20:49:40
Big tel we have had offers.

Can’t clear everyone out in January, how do u field a team for europa league?


21.) 02 Jan 2024
02 Jan 2024 21:28:27
Mcminn it may be a mandatory loan to buy. Teams similar to us that would prefer to part with cash in summer.


22.) 02 Jan 2024
02 Jan 2024 21:32:08
I’d have liked to see Matondo in 2nd half of season if I’m honest. Davies can go if a replacement is found. And only then:
Lammers can go today.
Cheers John.


23.) 02 Jan 2024
02 Jan 2024 21:35:00
Believe lammers must be close with not starting the last 2 games.


24.) 02 Jan 2024
02 Jan 2024 21:36:41
Doubt we can replace borna for 500k enless we get a loan in to cover h doubt the club will sell him would prob just let him leave on a free.


25.) 02 Jan 2024
02 Jan 2024 21:43:08
John227, who have we offered to verona? borna or yilmaz ?.


26.) 02 Jan 2024
02 Jan 2024 21:44:31
Imo we should only take the offer for barisic if we get that Kai Wagner or another left back in this window, otherwise I don’t trust yilmaz for the rest of the season (injuries).


27.) 02 Jan 2024
02 Jan 2024 21:56:20
McMin do we just not let them go on loan then? The clubs obviously don’t want to buy in jan so loaning is all we can do. This shows no matter what some people still will never be happy.


28.) 02 Jan 2024
02 Jan 2024 22:13:53
I’d take whatever money we can for players running down contract.


29.) 02 Jan 2024
02 Jan 2024 22:54:37
Rfc22 Sterling can cover at full back, we have raskin coming back from injury for middle of the park. Yes would leave us thin but business is business and cash in for a player out of contract in the summer or part of a deal for another player coming in would be good business sense, just my opinion tho.


30.) 03 Jan 2024

Really do think their's a player in ridvan, if he has a decent run of games, think with confidence he could be a good player for us.


31.) 03 Jan 2024
03 Jan 2024 00:53:22
Ridvan had a good game today against Killie and was solid against Celtic. He can be a bit lightweight defensively.


32.) 03 Jan 2024
03 Jan 2024 09:02:54
Ridvan has been good, bit wasteful going forward sometime but at least he looks to pass forward and make moves.
Unlike Borna "pass-backward" Barisic, who is exposed by Celtic every time.

Just hope Ridvan can stay healthy/ uninjured.


33.) 03 Jan 2024
03 Jan 2024 11:18:49
Walter we have offered borna, they want yilmaz.

Davies will go just when, he has his reasons.


34.) 03 Jan 2024
03 Jan 2024 11:59:55
If we can move on Davies, Matondo and Lammers in this window - even on a loan to buy - that would be positive as they'll all be big earners. It sounds like Million Manhoef might be a RW target to take Matondo's place in the squad, but that would still leave us needing replacements for the other two (either like for like on Davies, or potentially another kind of player for Lammers) .

While I think Lawrence is a more natural player to play backup to Cantwell in the 10 role, he just can't keep fit, and I'm not sure we have anyone else that can play the kind of passes we need from that area.


35.) 03 Jan 2024

Excellent news John, I actually believe that in the right league that Lammers will be a decent player, he just doesn't seem suited to the hustle and bustle of Scottish Football and similarly, at the correct level, possibly the English Championship, Davies will prove to be a decent centre back.
Matondo, I had hoped would come good but it's not happening.
Personally I would like to see us move Wright on and secure a small fee.
Looking forward to seeing some quality incomings although I suspect that the real quality won't arrive until the summer.
