Think Odd are resigned to losing him, he's out of contract in 6 months and think clubs can offer him a pre contract now. Someone said earlier their transfer window opens in August, maybe they want to hold on to him until then so they can sign a replacement? Aye I think we need to put this Norwegian lad to bed and move onto the next target. CR9 is back in town so guess he’ll be starting against Peterhead. Link to comment

Zorba Posted June 19, 2022 Share Posted June 19, 2022 15 minutes ago, slippers said: Our wages is around 10m, Rangers just under 50m and Celtic just over 60m. Yeah that must be including all staff with NI etc. As the breakdown on salarysport looks pretty on the money with players basic wages. Link to comment

DC has big questions to answer I’d hazard a guess that we pushed the boat out more than ever last season. Could be 1 or 2m added on with the wages we were paying players like Brown, Ramirez and Longstaff. Link to comment

Don’t think our top earners is anywhere near accurate. No chance Brown or Ramirez is only on circa 5k a week even basic with add ons. Link to comment
AyrshireSheep Posted June 19, 2022 Share Posted June 19, 2022 Shota Arveladze's nephew Vato is apparently due to sign for a club in Scotland. Plays as a no10 or second striker according to TransferMarkt. Wonder who the club is? Link to comment

But League 2 is still a lower standard than SPL. Jamie Vardy was playing non-league football when Leicester signed him so writing a player off purely because he's League 2 is silly. There are players in those lower leagues who will do a perfectly decent job for Aberdeen. Link to comment

LCFC signed Vardy when they were in the Championship after he scored 34 goals to get Fleetwood promoted to League 2 costing a million quid. Chump change for them, which £400k isn't to us and he had been outstanding for a full season. I've never said he couldn't do a job or writing him off IF we sign him. I'm just saying from what I had seen of him in a few games he didn't stand out as a player I would have given a second thought to. I hope every player who signs turns out to be a great signing but it's not "silly" to have doubts. Link to comment

Think we all knew he was going through a purple patch and wasn't going to be our number 9 for years. 18 months of goals including a lot of pens helped us a lot, but no one was sad to see him go especially for £2m. Imagine he will struggle when he inevitably comes back on loan to the likes of St J, Motherwell etc. Link to comment

Yes I probably should have used a better comparison than Vardy but there are plenty of lower league English players who've done well when they've moved to Scotland. Link to comment

The comparison was between League 2 and SPL, so the fact he hadn't actually played in League 2 does matter a little bit. Link to comment
Tord31 Posted June 19, 2022 Share Posted June 19, 2022 Arveladze CV looks so shit surely he's only signing for someone to smooth over another deal (Hull player or a player from the same agent). Link to comment

Dave Bus Posted June 19, 2022 Share Posted June 19, 2022 500k for shankland is better spent than a league 2 right back. Anyway, decent goal from lauritsen tonight Link to comment
