This take over as been nearly completed since may. I think Ive read recent that it was nearly complete 2 days after season ended.
Wouldn't have been impressed myself... He's slow, a bit of a clogger and his touch is absolutely rotten. Rangers fans can't stand him and also can't wait to get shut. He came on as a sub in the Scottish Cup Final in the last few minutes and was shoved up front, apparently everyone in the ground was rolling about laughing their tits off. No better than what we've got. In my opinion.
