Scottish (based) players are hard for us to sign on what we can offer. Chances are if we're impressed by someone operating slightly lower down the food chain, others are too and everyone knows all about them. There will obviously be exceptions but I can understand why we're rarely in the home market.

Think you'll find there's 4 thousand reasons a week why we didn't sign him!

This. I heard he's on crazy money i.e. £4K per week at Tannadice. Thats why we, and other Scots clubs, didn't sign him. Lunacy.
