raynaldo Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Is it just me, or is it really entertaining watching the EPL clubs picking over the bones of the OF European failures? Everyone of the OF's half decent players appears to be attracting some sort of interest from the Premiership. These clubs might just be chancing their arm on the assumption that both halves of the Old Firm will be hurting having lost their European Cash Cow. Does anyone else think that the OF might well be tempted to off load some of their higher earners if they think it will help balance their books come the end of the season? I think these are the signs that the gap between the OF and the rest of the league is closing fast. The rest arn't catch the OF, but the OF are slipping back into the pack. Link to comment

virtualmontana Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 I would be happy to see Rangers forced to sell Davis and Jelavic by the bank and Hooper to get nabbed to. Just to see the outrage and toys out of the pram behaviour. Link to comment
E-P-K Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Wolves inquire about Gary Hooper. Could make a sh*t joke about wolves at the door, but no. Link to comment

Dynamo Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 McCarthy aims for the Hoop(er). Link to comment
tup Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 The EPL clubs are every bit as repulsive as Rangers and Celtic. Link to comment
Dynamo Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Also linked with QPR, so Hooper could go from the Hoops to the Hoops. Celtic to Rangers Anyway, i hope the huns and tims do lose some of their 'star' players. Hopefully for peanuts with little time left to get replacements. Link to comment

I think these are the signs that the gap between the OF and the rest of the league is closing fast. The rest arn't catch the OF, but the OF are slipping back into the pack. We are actually witnessing the demise of serious Scottish senior football. The cash gap between us and the EPL was lost 15-20 years ago. The Championship can usually out price ANY of our clubs and the attraction of the CL was one of the few reasons why the Bigots managed to get players to come to them, but they won't see the group stages ever again (in my opinion given where we are right now), so the quality of player they can attract is going to get lower. If only we had a half billionaire owner who could plough a very small portion of his fortune into the club and have a real go for the title. Link to comment

Bamber Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Jammy? The team that beat them were playing half a team of guys that shouldn't have been playing. They've been quite rightfully re-instated. UEFA allowed them to be registered then FIFA came in and said they couldnt be registered as they hadnt served a year transfer ban, sion said they did fifa say they didnt - all depends on when the ban started fifa expected it to be 2 transfer windows Sion thought it was calendar Non football courts (as the swiss court has done) are driving a coach and horses through the decision Link to comment
Monkey Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Jammy? The team that beat them were playing half a team of guys that shouldn't have been playing. They've been quite rightfully re-instated. Not sure, as I can see the strength in Sion's argument about when they should of been allowed to sign players again. Can only assume that this is going to run for the next couple of weeks as they try and get an appeal through before the matches start. Link to comment

They are still a million miles ahead. A shite Rangers or Celtic team is still gonna finish 20-30 points ahead of us....if not more. Link to comment
