Jordan Thompson joins Raith on loan. Glasgow evening times reporting that a young CB is being loaned to us from Raith? Strange one as it suggests he'll be in our u20's! Can't see the point in that!



05 Aug 2016 14:43:32
After a bit of digging I can see he was man of the match against us when we beat them 1-0 away last season. I guess he's there for a chance to prove he's good enough for the first team.



05 Aug 2016 15:42:44
Surely we aren't signing a player on loan from raith.



05 Aug 2016 16:06:05
celtic sign kolo toure and rangers get a loan from raith in reply? wtf is going on I always say in warbs we trust but get the finger out warbs a get a good center back in.

People are so negative. What's to lose? The boy comes in and gets better coaching, we see him on a day to day basis at a minimal cost. If he impresses I'm sure there will be a fee already arranged and we're a step ahead of Celtic and clubs down south to sign him. If he doesn't then he goes back to Raith with no real financial impact to us. Nobody is suggesting he has been signed to sort out our defence. This is exactly the approach we should be taking with our youth sides, top EPL and European sides do the same. I wish the lad good luck and hopefully it turns out to be a shrewd piece of business.

Cam down James, this is obviously not a reply to Toure or a signing for the first team. Simply a club giving a youngster a chance to come and impress, give us a chance to have a look at him both on and off the pitch. Basically a way for the club to scout a promising player.

Seriously guys search for your inner chi or something, no need to be panicking or demanding at this point, its the continuation of a journey we are on.



05 Aug 2016 16:49:22
He's been signed to go into the youth system is he not?



05 Aug 2016 16:57:56

Rangers Confirmed he was signed for the Development Squad. We are obvously interested in the kid nothing to lose.



05 Aug 2016 17:13:55
The lad has been signed for the development squad. It says so in the club statement. A lot of young players were released at the end of the season, the squad that is in South Africa has an average of 17 and it's an u21 comp. Makes sense to bring him at no cost and if he plays well in the development squad he may have a chance at a permanent deal. Look at it as a 6 month trial for a youth player.



05 Aug 2016 22:36:21
Caw1 if MW spotted a player from a junior team so what,
the lad from Raith must have caught his eye, what's wrong with that, players have to start from somewhere .



05 Aug 2016 23:05:22
The only problem I have with this is that MW slates the development league saying young players need to be playing 1st team football then takes a player from raiths 1st team for our development squad?



06 Aug 2016 07:44:41
Nacho Novo started at Raith when he came to the Uk. Everyone has to start somewhere!



06 Aug 2016 09:39:16
Jamie Vardy springs to mind, just because of who he plays for, doesn't mean anything. Trust our manager, he knows his stuff.



07 Aug 2016 13:46:11
Livingston defender Morgyn niel would be a great buy imo.



05 Aug 2016 09:49:08
Phil Jones on loan, at Murray park for a year loan over the weekend. Mourinho rates Jones but would like him to prove his fitness and overcome injury issues so giving him a year before deciding on his future at the theatre of dreams. My mates working down in Manchester and he passed on this rumour. Dout it's true tho.



05 Aug 2016 10:48:53
I doubt it also but what a sensational signing that would be!



05 Aug 2016 11:09:24
Would be great bit of business, don't see it happening though!



05 Aug 2016 11:10:15
No way will this happen.



05 Aug 2016 11:25:55
More chance of signing tom jones.



05 Aug 2016 12:04:06
Tom Jones spotted at Murray park, not unusual.



05 Aug 2016 12:08:45
now that WOULD be unusual lol.



05 Aug 2016 13:00:06
LMAO FUNNY GUYS!
I don't think that we will get another striker in but I do think we will get sum1 for defence.



05 Aug 2016 14:22:08
If we don't get a decent defender in we would be doing well to finish second. Let's not forget that defence is he same defence that was leaking goals in the championship. Barton sitting in front is going to be able to stop that on his own. Surprised MW hasn't addressed that area yet. I know he doesn't want to be forced into buying someone he's not convinced about but there must be loads of available defenders that are better than what we have.



05 Aug 2016 18:40:12
Either warburtons happy to continue risking Kiernan and Wilson or he's not too bothered about bringing in abother centre half. One minute he's telling us he wants to bring in another 2 players then we are ready and then saying he's happy with the squad we have got. Tbh I'm not 100% happy with the centre halfs, it's all fine and dandy saying crooks will play there but if he doesn't fit the bill we have 4 centre halfs that are fairly mediocre.



06 Aug 2016 10:43:02
Doubt it very much, but I've just seen joleon lescott being released by villa, too costly. Maybe, but ideal player
Tommy.



06 Aug 2016 15:18:49
I agree that defence is by far our weakest position, but everybody seems to forget we have a very talented young lad in matt crooks who can cover centre back very comfortably. I wouldn't mind another defender but a defensive partnership of crooks and wilson will be solid especially with barton playing just in front of them.



07 Aug 2016 14:38:40
I am quite sure that Warburton knows how poor our central defence is and would love to sign a quality defender and equally he would like a proven goalscorer but these types cost money and there is more chance of Scotland winning the world cup than of Dave King funding such a deal! He is just another Murray with his moonbeams!
