Hi all
Does anybody know what the situation is of David goodwillie at blackburn?
Personaly I think he he could do us a turn up front and I can't see him costing a lot (especially with Blackburns current form and cheaper option than Rhodes)

Would not touch him with a barge pole, he made it abundantly clear where he wanted to go.

Had the same discussion the other day with a utd workmate.
He had that one good season before he left but the consensus is that Russell the better all round player.
Appreciate that Russell will cost more but ignoring the bad rep goodwillie has and the opportunity for our excellent
Coaching staff to improve him I'd take him on loan with view to a knock down fee. He's a young bloke but will eventually screw the nut, his experience down south might have been sobering and see Celtic as a last chance at big time before he trawls the lower English leagues.

Goodwillie isn't what we're looking for. Has proven he can score at SPL level, but he's struggling to get a game for a mid-table Championship team. He'll not be able to make the step up to Champions League level either.

Was that your opinion of hooper when he signed from Scunthorpe?
The whole transfer system is to buy and develop. U telling me goodwillie wldnt improve if here for a season or two?

Badwillie dropped form after his rape situation, right at the time for going down south. A step back is what he needs, long term maybe depending on his current level. no idea what he's at. Russell the far better option.

Dont want goody want charlie austin!

Like Novo, Naismith and apparently Fletcher, he has stated he would never play for us.
No big loss; he has went backwards and has a a bad reputation off the pitch.

His attitude off the park stinks with convictions and I for one would hand my season book back if this where to end up in paradise. some people need to think before the post. airdrie Tim

Airdrie Tim - Stokes? no handing your ST back for his off park activity? {Ed007's Note - It could be worse, he could be like Goram or even Gazza. Stokes hasn't actually done anything wrong.}

Thought about this long and hard and a came to the conclusion a widnae take a $hite on his face ha haaa

Ed, I don't think Stokes has either but some people who are whiter than white like Airdrie Tim might {Ed007's Note - It wasn't Airdrie Tim that said anything about Stokes.}

No he didn't but comes across as someone who wouldn't accept players being anything less than perfect in society. Goodwillie was charged with assault for protecting his mate, view the CCTV. His rape accusation was quashed. Just wondered why its ok for one player but not the other that's all

Mud sticks. I personaly couldn't see my self celebrating when an alleged rapist scored. the case was dropped due to lack of evidence that does not clear his same imo. that's not how i. was raised

edoo7 do you expect wanyama to leave in the summer and where do you expect him to go?

thanks cc {Ed007's Note - I have said all along I think it will be Arsenal if he leaves although Txiki Begiristain has hinted that Manchester City are considering making a bid for the player as well as Chelsea needing to replace Essien. Manchester United have turned their attention to Kevin Strootman so it seems less likely they will follow up their interest.}

Spurs were represented at the St Mirren game a few weeks ago in Paisley. I was talking to their scout but wouldn't say who he was watching. I can't imagine it would be Hooper as he's not doing anything to impress anyone at the moment so it must have been Vic.

Jungle Bhoy.
