    McGeoch is going to Blackburn I thought , with others supposedly interested?
    Think that ship has sailed.

    Cadden? Motherwell aren’t exactly skint & allegedly turned down £400k-£500k before?
    Getting to 2 cup finals will mean they’ve made a good amount.
    It’s possible - depends on whether (like us with Shinnie maybe?) Motherwell are willing to let a valuable asset run down the last 12 months of their contract.

    As an aside, the club has 4,500+ signed up to AberDNA.
    I know it varies in cost & a lot will be Direct debit as opposed to a lump sum, but you’d like to think we’d see a transfer fee or two paid this summer?
    Ferguson will be around £150k.
    Would £500k get Cadden?
    Is he worth it?
    I suppose there’s also the possibility of a bid for Shinnie or McKenna being accepted if it’s very good, adding to our funds.

    An interesting summer either way.

    We have offered McGeough a contract, up to him/agent to consider, would be a very good signing.

    I agree.
    Very good player - slight concern about injuries, although not bad this season.
    Daily Express reporting we’ve made him an offer to be our highest paid player.

    That said, that would still be possibly less than half he’d get in Championship.
    Still think he’ll end up there.

    He would certainly be a good addition to the squad

    Absolutely.
    He’d be alongside Shinnie in the “2” of the
    4-2-3-1.

    McInnes has seen the light and Shinnie will be played at left back next season. The only drawback being that Andrew Considine will move to right back!
