Alan Nixon says a deal for Stuart Bannigan could be done this week. Had to Google him as I had no idea who he was, he is a former Partick Thistle player, 23 years old. Rejected a deal to stay with them last month.
Looking likely, then. We have been in for him before and must rate him by stats and scouting missions. Another rising star?
He ended last season with a bad knee injury in March. I hope he has fully recovered if we decide to sign him.
Yup. Perfectly sums up Jovo, Clint and Appleby. Although I'd seen Neil Thompson & Paul Wilkinson on numerous occasions against us, the intelligentsia of the time claimed both were past it and neither were capable of making any sort of contribution.
The great thing is that nobody moans about us signing little-known players any more due to our fantastic recent record. Remember what it used to be like? As for this fella, I wonder if Ian knows him ?
I do, mate. But I've always had the attitude that it's not where the player comes from that matters, it's how they play for us which counts. As you rightly say, this has been even more prevalent in the last few years. Any info about the lad from our Scottish contingent would be helpful.
Very highly regarded on the Jags' forum. Seems to like a yellow card or two, so should be a combative type. Scored his only goal last season against Ian's lot.
thought he'd signed for Celtic and then been loaned back? I must be having one of my 'turns'........NURSE!!!
