    It's hard to see how any club could afford him, even on loan (aside from two but i doubt they'd want him). But, you never know I guess and as GB will testify, I've been wrong before about these things.

    ...I would only take him back if the club announced him the same way they did last time!

    ..but I think he will go to Aberdeen or one of the Edinburgh clubs.

    His stock won't be as high as it was previously either. Whatever way you look at it, his record in the top league's has been poor. Saying that, I'm sure someone would give him a shot, if, as you say, they could afford it.

    What would it take to get Laurence for the rest of the season, £5k/week?
    All in all it's been a well dodgy career move for him as was suggested at the time.
    I mean, they put mayonnaise on their chips!

    It was interesting hearing Charlie Adams' accurate salary in Court this week, £3.5k/wk.
    We'd heard it was twice that cos of a private benefactor.

    I reckon shanks has a reputation now for not being premier class. There is a lot of doubt about him now. I think we will go for him as i said before. His stock is in the is he worth a risk category. Bang the goals in here and all could be well again for him.

    As for Shanks, I wouldn't be bursting the bank for him.

    If you read any other fans forums, that's certainly the opinion of fans up & down the country. As for banging them in here? Our problem is still the same, we create nothing. Unless we sort that then we'd be wasting our money bringing Shanks back.

    Very true. We are the only club he can play for this season though in spfl i think. Killie seem to be interested though not sure of the rules. Prefer him up front than clark tbh regardless

    Hearts desperate for a goal scorer, they do create , just no-one to put the chances away. Be gutted if he went there. I would have shanks back in a heartbeat. If we let loose these young lads with him up front, I think this would work.

    Agree we have creativity in team play glass, moore, mochrie or meekison in right positions, not all at same time but more often. Chalmers too needs to be guven a chance or get shot of.
