Vancouver_Don is claiming we are offering GMS and Cadden a contract.

Can Cadden play right back? How would he fit into our system?

Not surprised by GMS. Him and Hedges could be a good partnership.

 

What was vancouver Don's exclusive in the summer again? Insisted a player was not signing.  Said player then signed 2 days later.

Hoban maybe

I think he's the guy who pretends he's got inside board info. Then uses other logins to attract everyone's attention to his posts. 

In reality he just collects gossip from the papers and forums, throws them all at a wall and hopes they stick.

Yes we all agree that Stewart has had his career high point and now he is done.

Agreed.

It’s not as if his scoring record makes him look like a potentially good signing.

ZERO goals from open play this season.

Just had a look and shocked at how bad his stats are. I know stats can be misleading and he’s playing in a poor team but it dosnt fill you with a massive amount of hope.
 

As someone said above its just more of the same and not going to take us to next level! 
 

Having watched how well we performed with a different kind of striker leading the line I can’t quite work out why we are still pushing for this target man type?

He’s been offered a contract but county are unwilling to let him go so you’re probably right about summer

They must be desperate to hang on to him for all those goals he gets for them.... 

er......

or some other reason. 

[aberdeen1970]

Nah they're just hoping we throw them some cash to get him early. 

[Tord31]

Leave Stewart until the summer - take him on a free.

Ideally loan/sign Watkins.

Keep Main on until the summer.

Bin Edmondson and Cosgrove.

Recall Anderson.

Loan a first choice striker.

Fair but of turd polishing there though. 

Would Anderson and an unidentified first choice loan striker be an improvement on Cosgrove and Edmondson?  Doubtful

Anderson will end up at Deveronvale, just as McLennan will end up at Peterhead.

That’s not being nasty to the pair, just realistic.

Must be half a dozen lads out of loan (Ethan Ross, Virtonen, Ruth etc) that need to be given a chance.

I certainly would'nt go into the remainder of the season with Main , Anderson and an unknown loanee

Aye. Marquee signing for the summer.

Deary me tord. I take it you're fishing?

I was thinking it can't be long until McInnes is back in for Louis Moult so I had a wee look to see what he was up to. He was out for a whole year with his well documented knee injury and was stretchered off in his first or second game back with an injury to the same knee which Alex Neil said 'doesn't look good at all' so we'll nae be in for him now.

£350k bid and 4.5 year contract being prepared as we speak.

Players cannot sign a pre-contract until January window opens but those going out of contract the following summer can start speaking to other clubs in the December

[CalgaryDon]

I really hope we haven't signed Ross Stewart.

And of course no agents and clubs would speak before they're allowed. Been contact for months.

The question is do we believe Don Fonte or Vancouver Don?

Ask Vancouver Don how Scott Wright and Connor McLennan are getting on out on loan and how Hedges is getting on at his new club. 

Oh, and might as well ask him how Steven Fletcher is getting on in the English Premiership with West Brom.

My understanding is that we are not allowed (through agents or directly) to speak to any player with 6 months or more of his contract left. I am assuming Stewarts contact ends at the end of June, therefore we have to wait until January 1.
