Callum Davidson on transfers: "We have had a couple of offers for two of our players – Jamie and Shaun - but nothing to make us think seriously about them. I'll only start to worry as a manager if more realistic offers start to come in."

Obviously no idea how much we’ve got to spend on transfer fees just now but with interest in Odoffin and McCart we’ve got something, which is good to see. It’ll be difficult to balance too because we never know when we’ll get a serious bid for Nisbet/Doig/Porteous which could considerably change the outlook.

Seems to have a lot of interest including teams down south.

Oddofin would be a good signing definitely. Hopefully get him signed.

Would like us to add another striker also plus I feel with Gray retiring we have lost a leader in the squad - maybe another CB possibly with leadership quality to compete with the other 3 (Daz won’t play every game and Porto / Hanlon need competition).

What youth players do we think we break through this season?

Josh Campbell looked to have ability before being shipped out last season

Interesting to see if he has developed any ?

Don't have a massive amount of knowledge of the youth players and how likely they are to make their way in. But have a feeling it could be a big season for Bradley. In the glimpses I saw last season, he looks tricky, could be a very useful player.

Apparently we're back in for Thomas Robert again.

Was meant to be going down to Burnley for a 2 week trial. Thought he had gone of the boil a bit at Airdrie?

When was the last time we had a marquee signing that lived up to expectation? I'm with you, I think we should keep doing what we've been doing.

Would it be Stokes? He had one good game (the one that mattered most) but was anonymous most of the season.

Yeah probably Stokes but if it wasn't for that final (daft thing to say i know) it wold have been a very underwhelming return. Definitely happy with our signing policy just now.

More of a stopper than a ball player from what I remember.

That said, I’m no sure I’d back Chiellini to beat 3 men and fire a shot in the top corner but I’d still be happy with him in our defence.

Of course, but he needs more than physical attributes. Chiellini isn't quick, but he's very clever and a great defender. Defend is a footballing trait. All I've seen is this guy described as big, strong, quick, powerful. So, he's basically a wwe superstar

For all his good physical attributes, I always thought he looked a bit rushed in possession. Maybe having part time hammer throwers breathing down has neck has forced him to settle that to be fair.

I totally agree with this, but young players quite often look like this when they first appear. He looked to me like he needed 4 or 5 games to feel his way into first team football, then he might have been an asset.

He’s been at a level where I’m not sure lower level loans have necessarily been beneficial, although it’s possible that no lower level premier teams would have been interested.

That looks more like rehashing old rumours to fill column space.

[Tyler Durden]

I think if Odoffin comes in then he's there to compete with McGinn for a RCB/defensive right back position. And also provide cover for Gogic. We don't have another naturally defensive CM. I don't think Odoffin can play centre back in a back 4.

Would seem like another good versatile signing if we can get him.

I do remember hearing at one point that he had some pretty impressive stats for this season, I'm sure he was one of the only ones out with Rangers players who made it into a sort of "team of the year" thing.

Interesting that this highlights "interceptions" and he plays for Accies - I'm sure Gogic had the highest stat for that in the league for Accies before he joined us.

Exactly right! For all the people on here saying Nisbet will easily be replaced, the only names mentioned are LG and Shankland. Where's all the obvious replacements for Nisbet? Uche at £750k puts it in perspective!

£750K

Sure it was '£' and not 'lbs' ?????

It's on BBC Scotland football gossip - with a link to Glasgow Evening Times here: https://www.glasgowtimes.co.uk/sport/19419467.celtic-rangers-target-thomas-robert-link-epl-club-trial/

But it doesn't say much other than Hibs are one of the teams who have allegedly been "keeping an eye on him". So it's probably mince.

Dodgy one!

Knowing that Jackson Irvine wasn't staying, we obviously signed Jake Doyle-Hayes & his 2 surnames to balance thing up.

Where does that leave us if we're going for guys with 2 first names? I suppose that's where Scott Allan's versatility is important.

As you say he struggled for gametime for Airdrie at the end of the season.
I saw him properly for the first time in their play off games and although very skillful I thought he was far too soft and slight.
IMO he is development squad standard at present and needs to hit the gym bigtime if he is to progress.

I’ve said it before on here, I think this guys just got an agent who’s constantly making stuff up to make it look like he’s a talent.

Young French guy, with no links to Scotland, knocks back bigger teams in France and England to sign for Airdrie? I’m not having it. Then every now and then we get a story saying we’re after him, or Celtc are after him, now Burnley. He’s at Airdrie, and apparently isn’t looking a stand out at that level. If a bigger team wanted him, he’d not be hard to get.

Friendly or not that is a poor result, Stanley are bottom end of div1 and wont be any further along fitness wise to us.

Given the team that was out was basically our reserves up until 60 minutes i don’t think it’s really something to be worried about.

Every year someone gets upset about training ground games. Results are totally irrelevant. All about getting some game minutes up and trying out some stuff.
