i hope not.
he had a knack for scoring against us. still remember clearly the two crackers he hit at Celtic Park in the League Cup last season that knocked us out.
i'd prefer if he headed off out of the country again.

Thistle's excellent-when-he-can-be-bothered midfielder Gary Harkins sought by an SPL club. Chances Thistle will bite the first offer and the arm that proffered it off at the shoulder. Thistle seriously skint and braced for a shafting by the bank.

Inverness CT have offered a deal to Steven Pressley. he's returned from Denmark where he played for Randers.
his agent claims he has offers from a couple of lower league teams in England and one from a team in Switzerland but he'd prefer to stay in Scotland.

Interesting one, Fraser. I wonder if there's anything in the rumour about Caley showing the Plague the door. Pressley's keen on management IIRC.

that's an interesting angle. hadn't thought of it in that way but it makes a lot of sense.
if a defeat becomes either manager on Sunday then the noose could tighten around them.

well Newcastle are desperate for central midfielders but what message would it send out to the Rangers fans if their captain was sold in the January window.

bye bye Boydichenko.
Birmingham City aim to conclude a deal to buy Kris Boyd within the next 48 hours, with Alex McLeish having already lodged a bid of around £3.5 million to lure the Rangers striker south to the Coca-Cola Championship side.
Sources at Birmingham even brazenly asserted last night that Boyd would be presented as a City player alongside McLeish at St Andrew’s tomorrow, though Rangers will want to do more negotiating before that happens.

Hibs pair Thierry Gatheussi and Filipe Morais will join Inverness CT on loan until the end of the season once they pass a medical.

seeing as they haven't played for Re-arrangers they should sail through that...

Falkirk have nipped in and beaten Inverness CT to the signing of Steven Pressley.
Falkirk have beaten Inverness CT to the signature of veteran former Scotland defender Steven Pressley.
Pressley, 35, had been expected to join Caley Thistle after a spell in Denmark but he has opted to spend the rest of the season with the Bairns.
Manager John Hughes told the club's website: "I'm delighted to sign a player I have admired for many years.
"His experience and leadership will help shift the responsibility off other players."
http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/f/falkirk/7826829.stm
so they've beaten their relegation rivals to an experienced CB and should have a good combo of youth and experience at the back now with Pressley and Barr in the centre. nice move by Yogi.
