    £50k for a player they'll sell for millions. But you're the experts when it comes to finance ��
    BBC Gossip says this morning that Kamara may be going to Spartan Moscow for £10,000,000. Even at a 10% sell on clause that would be some windfall.







    Wait, sorry, what did you say…………….?

    The first league game of 2019/20 v ICT @ home, 3rd August. 4-1 & Laurence got all 4 in his league debut. I remember feeling exhilarated at the end. There was a feeling of there's something special going on. By the end of the month he'd scored 8 goals, we'd won all 4 league games incl 6-2 v Fun where Laurence got a measly one goal just! But on 90 mins at the ICT game was my Shanks Shampagne Moment.

    I mean there are so many to choose from but I think I'm going to go for the Smokies at home. Playing like ****e, one nil down, going into the last minute, loads of fans heading for the exits. Shanks provides the most unlikely of ends to the match with two goals to win it at the death. A great example of what he meant for us that season.

    Before anyone says it I know, but fair play these are pretty good. 🙂

    Second goal v Dundee when he took the ball mid height ghosted past a few fun defenders and slotted it away. Decided a tight and important match

    2nd

    The ross county opening goal this last season. Classic shanks and stopped the rot where we couldn’t buy a win before

    3rd

    Strong Header v Arbroath where we turned it around - 2 goals that sent us on the run that won us title

    Lots to choose from but these my favourites

    A genuine goalscorer who instinctively knew where the goal was

    Delighted to have seen him in tangerine
    Your number one choice, the second goal v Le Fun wasn't the prettiest goal he scored for us but definitely one of the best because he has so much to do. Wins a one on one he had no right to, turns defenders inside out and then still manages to find the net. Fantastic goal right in front of our fans.

    The header across the keeper v ICT was sublime.

    So many great memories. Thankyou Lawrence.

    Obviously only watching it on the TV but the howitzer against St Johnstone from 55 yards was pretty special tae. Especially as it was in the middle of a run where we were dreadful to watch.

    Really hard to pick a best moment, and ive been thinking of the 55 yarder, the Arbroath rescue mission, the Morton mazy, but i think no4 in this game was the one that does it for me! Ball was in the net before the the defender knew what was happening!

    I was listening to Sportsound that day to get the final score and they were discussing was whether LoA was good enough for Scotland. Prick Young was giving it the big thumbs down as per, then the commentator interrupts with 'Late Goal at Tannadice - Lawrence Shankland'. He was still downplaying it until 'Another goal at Tannadice, Shankland again' was announced. Puss shut.
