I reckon come the summer he’ll be out of our reach. Championship team will snap him up is my guess

Again there’s nothing stopping us bid now. Gamble on Donkey Kong being sold.

Totally agree, not sure we can or not. To be fair we should have struck a deal well before deadline day. Even if it meant him staying at the Pars until the end of the season, or giving them Shaw.

There's absolutely no chance we'll get him in the summer, that ship has sailed.

Best we can hope for there is that he turns out pish, he's had his hot streak and we've dodged a bullet.

United will be up, will probably have a few quid in their pocket from flogging Shankland and will have the clout and desire to blow us out the water.

The spotlight will really be on our recruitment team to succeed where they have failed miserably over the past couple of summers.

At risk of this all sounding hopelessly negative, I do think a good few of our problems are down to unease between the managers (Lennon and Heckingbottom) and the recruitment team. Hunch just tells me that Ross is more likely to be on the same page as them, so I do actually hold out a bit of hope that we'll have a fair idea of what we need going into the summer and will recruit appropriately and accordingly.

I do think we're going to have to contemplate some pretty uncomfortable departures though - good goalkeepers, legendary defenders, hot and cold midfielders and possibly a high-scoring striker amongst our summer activity out the way.

Correct. Hopelessly negative.

You are nothing if not wonderfully consistent. Didn't even have to look at the username, knew it was your fine self from the first 2 sentences

So now we have less financial clout than the mighty Dundee Utd 🙄

Really?

Why not bid now?

Even if that's allowed, and I'm not sure it is, what would be the point?

We can't sign anyone until the summer so another club could bid more.

We can sign him now if we wanted. Like Celtic did with Scott Brown.

No we can't.

Wouldn’t have a clue.
Was in hospitality last weekend and had the chance to speak to important members of staff at the club and the subject of Nesbit, Hunberi and transfer window came up.
They advised how high they went but Dunfermline kept saying no.

Your first post said the source was the the person who sent the bid to Dunfermline implying it was one person.
Your response says spoke to important members of staff and they advised?
That implies to me that your opening statement of wouldn’t have a clue is probably the most accurate thing you have said.

In the greater scheme of things does it really matter, it's all history now. 🙄

So we didn't alert other clubs and to put Dunfermline under pressure to accept our bid.

Had we made an offer on, say 15 January, it would certainly have been rejected at that stage. Details of the bid would have been leaked to the press and we would have found ourselves in an even bigger bidding war.

But nisbet could have put a transfer request in? Could have worked in our favour if we bid early as well

He didn't though. He could have done that anytime before the deadline.

Early bids are really only any use if you're either the only club interested, if the team is desperate to sell, or if you're offering silly money.

Dunfermline didn't want to sell regardless of when we put our bid in.

[O'Rourke3]

So, 7 days after the transfer deadline there's a story about a failed bid?
