Na, the war chest has been opened. 

[paddy]

Will be crap, will struggle to settle and will be loaned to Atlanta by Christmas.

But why not.

Welcome Rammy.

Seems a strange one.  Leaving the States to come to Scotland in his early thirties. 

Is he out of contract? 

transfermarkt says he's out of contract in november.

Russell played in Calfornia/LA did he not? 

Maybe from there

Glass worked with him? Or how has this come about?

Atlanta tried to secure him last campaign for the injured Martinez. Assume we have spoke to them about him. No idea if Russell played with him or knows him? Would assume Glass knows a little about him too?

his goals return is pretty good, especially at a lower level.

And when are we expecting this to be revealed?

little bit of context 

seems Atlanta have been interested in him for 4 years now, wonder if his age now has put them off but with glass working in the league he played in, he must know him, the Atlanta scouts definitely do, so thinking they are passing on info to us about a good player?.

That article is 5 years old though. 

[slippers]

It’s all about value for money. If he signs a 3 year deal and on anywhere near the same amount of money as he is in states we need 50-60 goals minimum from him. 
 

Know very little about him but signing a 30 year old with a poor scoring record in previous 3 seasons dosnt exactly strike me as spending our budget “better”.

Delighted to be proved wrong. Certainly more excitement with him than a injury prone league 1 striker with terrible  scoring record.

Hendry would do well to get 15 shots on target

Fuck me RJ, that must be a record. One post and two down votes. I haven’t told the guys here how negative you are, honest.

? changed days. The Anchor Man has left the building so all is good. 
Back on topic....I would like the signing of Ramirez as it would be someone relatively unknown to us fans. Something different for our opponents to deal with. I just can’t see it happening.

You should get into promotional work.

Red John did you sign up to P&B and AFC Chat?

[maryhilldon]

I wonder if we'll sign anyone under 30 this summer?  We'll be chanting  'Dads Army'  instead of  'Red Army' next season at this rate.

Yeah, cause as everyone knows in football, as soon as you hit 29 years old, your finished. 

[Torry Tosser]

I'm fitter now at 40 than I wis at 20.

All this shite about not signing players over 30,nearly all the world's top players are around that age.....

Sarcasm apart, the point is that there is nothing wrong with having 2 or 3 over 30s in your squad, but it’s mental to then add 4 more, 5 if this guy signs. 

Serious questions need to be asked of the strategy if this continues

I have a look on here now and again especially during the transfer windows to see if anyone has any inside information on anyone we could be signing. Mainstandmoan over on mad seems to be the person who has most clout when it comes to inside knowledge. 
To answer the original question, yes.

Hope you acknowledge I put forward your request about Griffiths?

Vardy still banging them in at 35 for Leicester....If he came out the day and said I want to play for the Dandies,would you say fuck off your too old?

They're not much use if they leave before we sign them ?
