Summer Transfer Window (Stephen Glass’ first)

Ha, don’t think anyone’s replacing the level, and accuracy, of info MSM provides (provided?). I believe this info is right though.

And was my guess correct?

No, but it wouldn’t surprise me if we were trying to get him as well. And I do think we’re trying to get a couple of other St. Johnstone players.

We're not going to sign half the St Johnstone starting line up. The only ones I'd imagine we'd be interested in would be McCann (who we won't be able to afford now), Kerr, Gordon and McCart (any of whom would be good signings, although you do wonder whether their success has been built on the fact they work well together as a unit, and they may not be so good split up), or the goalie Clark (if we are looking to offload Lewis, which I'd be in favour of). Maybe the boy Rooney at right back, but it sounds like the guy from America is coming so can't see that.

I can see us getting one of the above with Kennedy thrown in as a sweetener, but can't see us raiding them for more than one player.

I guess the problem we might have in going for players who are under contract might be that we got £5 million for McKenna and Cosgrove so clubs like St Johnstone and St Mirren will think we have money to burn which probably isn’t the case.

Can’t really blame them considering we are looking for a couple of million for Ferguson.

Spot on Rico, these clubs are entitled to hold out for the amount they want. I think there might be a few examples already of players happy to come to us but the transfer fees are a sticking point. Could be a drawn out summer transfer wise.
