I've heard that Celtic are going to sign Fraser Forster and Leon Best. Don't think we will miss Leon but may miss Fraser later on but too good to be a back-up keeper.

Believable1 Unbelievable3

He's obviously not that good if he only has ambitions of playing in the SPL, which makes him look a lot better than he actually is.

Agree2 Disagree1

Qpr are going after anyone and everyone, and they sure as hell need to replace paddy kenny. fraser would've been perfect for them but i don't think they've even battered an eye lid.

Agree0 Disagree0

Would rather see him go on loan to a Premier League Club, get some decent experience, also allow us to see if he can cut it at this level, then make a decision at the end of that year. it would be sods law that he goes to QPR or west ham an suddenly turns out to be good and we miss out financially

Agree2 Disagree0

I would like it if Best and Forster stayed, they probably wouldn't but they could both be looking at around 10 games each and probably even more if we progress in Europa and the FA/Carling Cup. Shame to lose squad players so loosely.

Be surprised if we spend that much without losing Tiote or Ba but some good shouts there.

Agree0 Disagree0

Douglas is FREE

Agree1 Disagree3

No Douglas is not free. He is still under contract.

Agree2 Disagree1

He has a short contract extension which they have activated so that Twente can get something for his services, he should cost less than 8 million really.
