    Efe Ambrose, is this some kind of sick joke?

    The Daily Express seems to be the paper leading with Effe and Stokes on Loan

    Ambrose would be a good squad player for anyone bar Celtic in Scotland. I think he just looks bad for Celtic as they are too good for him.

    As for Stokes would anyone sell Cummings to Blackburn for 1m + Stokes? I would.

    Is Stokes not getting his game at Blackburn? I know he was injured for a while, but scored a couple when he first went. Surely he's not out his depth down there?

    We don't need Stokesy at the moment. Efe would be a good move though.

    Hope the Ambrose story is wrong. Always looked like a bombscare to me.

    Surely not Ambrose!! Our defence has been outstanding this season, why sign a player that is going to do more damage than good in my opinion.

    Efe Ambrose was everything we worked on in coaching and analysis a week before the Celtic game. It worked.

    Keep him well away.

    Just can't see either happening. I know Hanlon is injured, possibly for a while but Fontaine is a more than capable replacement.

    I suppose given Stokes history here it's more likely but not convinced there is anything here

    Stokes will always be one of my favourite players for the performance in the Scottish Cup Final, but we don't really need another striker. As for Ambrose? No, just no.

    I'm hoping we can get Kris Commons in and that would do.

    He's had some high profile howlers, though he has played a lot of games for Celtic and has 50 odd caps - he must otherwise be a pretty decent player and certainly for where we are?

    That's a strange one. Unless there are injuries we dont know about to CBs or the strikers that's a surprising area to want to be strengthening.

    Hanlon needing an op so looking for CB cover.

    Though young guys at CB have done well in Dev team.

    Did stokes no play leftside of a 3 at celtic? Could be looking at hin with a view to play there. Would be delighted, but very surprised, if we get him.

    Ambrose is fine if all he's doing is coming in for cover, other than that the thought of him in our defence is not great.

    Stokes...definitely, would be utterly delighted with him coming in.

    Indeed. Would be an excellent addition.

    Sorry, didn't show him on Live scores app, but checked Sky and he was on the bench. Hasn't had much game time though

    The Stokes that played in the cup final, yes. As his father said to him, why can't he play like that every week? Not sure I'd bee too bothered about a loan for him, unless he wanted to come longer term and get settled in.

    Still dug out some important goals in other games - ICT away in the cup, Morton away etc.

    And he'd peak in time for this year's cup final again.

    We probably need cover at the back with Hanlon being out for a few weeks especially if we go with a 3 again at some point.

    Likewise I'm not convinced there isn't room for another striker in our squad.

    Would be fine with either or both coming in.

    Ambrose is absolute murder. Forster is a lot more steady than him and can chip in with the odd goal too.
