False start on the Women's team Acc

Perhaps going over old ground, but I'm not sure bidding wars in the context of transfer fees are much of a thing, at our level anyway. There will come a point where bid(s) are tabled which the Club finds acceptable. Any bidding war between clubs will be in terms of contract and wages. FWIW I think around £6m could just about be achievable, but it would also be the ceiling of what we could reasonably expect.

Two bids rejected for Watt, according to Scott Burns. Both 7 figures. Will take at least £1.75m for us to even discuss.

There's a tweet floating about with a bid from Hanover (€500k) for Fadinger

Slattery 3 yr deal at Sheffield Wednesday Pretty decent move for him

I would be most comfortable with Maswanhise going. Not sure what it is, but has a touch of the Theo Bair purple patch about him and would take a decent offer if given. Just is absolutey pivotal for us linking feom decence to attack, and given he's now equalled Larsson's WC record whilst at a Scottish Club, we should be looking for a record fee. Watt similarly is pivotal to how we play Ideally we wouldn't sell all 3 at once, but if the right offers come in, then it safeguard's the Club's future and allows us to speculate/transform areas. The positives are we have a degree of bargaining power given we are cash healthy due to sale of Miller (and others),the above players are inder contracts with Club options and with each one we sell, we can argue the importance of losing the others increases. We obviously have a ceiling in what we can demand, but in a pretty decent place.

Per Kyrk's interview there , one or two new faces due shortly, but leaving Alfred space to bring in his own also. https://x.com/i/status/2070522480318423181

Turns out Alfie was at Hampden to see Moult score a Worldy lob and Rybo throm hiself about v Rangers. Like that he refused to divulge what was said between him and Jens - Saying it will remain private.

Yeah, think age is less important now as the game has evolved. I a similar way that a Manager giving the hairdryer treatment these days probably wouldn't wash and would be less of a motivator than in the past.

Different Liam Gordon at Port Val.le. Suggestions ours is off to the Far East

We have seen on a few occasions how actual ignorance of the Scottish game and by extension the OF circus/fawning, can be beneficial.

Interview now up https://x.com/i/status/2067614664016400600

Base 4-3-3 Attacking: His absolute preferred blueprint uses a single anchoring holding midfielder paired with two creative, hard-working central midfielders. Alternative 4-4-2: He occasionally shifts to a 4-4-2 shape depending on squad availability, using a defensive block where the forward line triggers collective pressing. In Possession: Build-up and Attack Positional Play: Players are strictly instructed to occupy specific zones to overload the opponent's defensive lines and create passing triangles. Deep Playmaking: Johansson relies on an experienced defensive midfielder (such as Ole Selnæs at Rosenborg) to drop deep, dictate the tempo, and orchestrate the initial phase of play. Forward-Moving Intensity: He prioritises direct, forward-passing moves to break opposition lines over slow, sideways possession. 1v1 Isolation: Wide attackers are encouraged to isolate full-backs in wide areas, utilizing a strong first touch and immediate acceleration to create crossing or shooting opportunities. Out of Possession: Defending and Transition High Pressing & Tenacity: His forward lines act as the catalyst for defensive work, pressing opponents high up the pitch to force rushed long balls. Aggressive Rest-Defense: Midfielders are instructed to remain close to the action so they can launch a quick counter-press or transition rapidly into a defensive shape if possession is lost. Wide Area Control: His defensive collective focuses on controlling space out wide and forcing opponents into congested central zones.

The return of Moses Ebiye

Suspect Just and the Club have bigger fish to fry than Celtic now.
