Apologies meant Roda! They will get a percentage of the sale depending on what they included in the sale negotiations when Vente moved to hibs. I would guess 30%ish but impossible to know for sure.Quote:

The fee being reported is £750kQuote:

I’m interested in most things to do with Scottish football so I would say I’m quite interested who they sign.Quote:

I have been very happy with recent transfers but I do agree in some sense. I don't think we have got anyone since them came in who we couldn't of got without them. Maybe Marcondes? However, we only saw flashes of his true ability sadly.Quote:

In their 1st full season we've progressed from 8th the season before up to 3rd and unlucky not to get guaranteed european group stages. What were you expecting us to have achieved by now? Disruption of the Glasgow 2?Quote:

He said he thought it would be a real game changer. It has been, our performances and results have improved significantly.Quote:

I think he meant in terms of transfers, Not performances. I'm assuming he means he thought we would of been shopping in a market above where we were previously. Which I think we are yet to see.Quote:

I think it looks pretty positive at the moment.

What we’re getting appears to be working well but I don’t think it’s unfair to say it’s not how most people envisaged it going. As long as we’re doing well though then it doesn’t really matter.
What does it matter what market players are coming from as long as the players improve us, which they very much have. It’s about recruiting smarter. Clubs who have historically just thrown money at recruitment to buy success have been caught up (and in some cases overtaken) by clubs who are cleverer in the transfer market.Quote:

Whilst I am sure the relationship has improved and the black knights are helping us in the background it is still a bit of a damp squib compared to what I was hoping for. I honestly expected them to have more of a strategy / coherent plan but ot does not seem like that so far.. maybe just being a bit impatient but if I was in their shoes I would have made an early statement of intent.Quote:

I do think if a team really wants to become the 3rd force in Scotland though they need to go up a level in the market they shop in. History proves it's extremely difficult to maintain 3rd place over a couple of seasons and we are currently in the best position to do this.Quote:

@SkySportsNews understands discussions have progressed well today and the 23-year-old is keen to join the Scottish champions.
Inamura is a left-footed centre-back, who can also play at left-back.
2 clubs in for Vente

All done in spite of BKFC, who made it clear they disagreed with two pivotal appointments - Malky and GrayQuote:

Seem to be really hoping to sell a couple for big bucks …Quote:
