Does anyone know... were all our big transfer fees agreed during the 2016/17 season paid in lump sums or in instalments? Will we be able to discount the fees spend on McCormack/Kodjia/Hogan, etc, from our three-year running total for FFP next year, or will we still be paying for them?

McGinn could be the tonic in our midfield. But I have just tanqueray about how we're paying for him?

Speculation we are after Hendricks too.

Reported yesterday that we had postponed a medical slot from mon to Tuesday and 2 booked for Wednesday. Bearing in mind the new keeper, Bristol city lad, Man City lad in directors box last night, JOHN McGinn, Abraham’s and couple of others mentioned, I wonder who will be the ones fitting into medical slots allocated or genuinely at the top of the clubs priority wanted list ?

i spoke to a mate who works on the scottish football for sky, says mcginn would be an excellent signing for us.

celtic have been in for him all season, the issue has been the fee because hibs need to pass on a third of it to st mirren.

I just wish we can offload Old Tom Elphick .     He had a gin mare last night

I heard it was Liverpool, although he had an absolute Mare other day.

I like gin.

The medical was for Hendricks, but he got stuck in Crosstown Traffic.
