    Wee edit there, seriously though where are you hearing that?

    seems like a long running saga and I’ll be shocked if he still ends up at Dens

    Its not our style to come out well from protracted dealings like this

    Still waiting on him being announced by Hibs

    The move was agreed a wee bit back, but County have been waiting on a replacement.  The rest was public positioning.  No idea how much you’ve paid.  I doubt we’ll ever know.

    16? If he was Scottish he'd still be in the under 17s team. 

    He’d still be in the under 14s and criticised for not being tall enough. 
     

    edit: and playing centre forwards and chasing balls hit 20 yards over his head.

    Have to say I didn't expect Baldwin to be leaving this window. Not sure what to make of it really, but if the 500K is anywhere near to being accurate then it's good business for us. Would that not be a new record?

    Anyway, I'm looking forward to seeing what Hale can do. It's quite refreshing to fend off interest from down south and land a player we've been after. Still 2 or 3 decent signings short though, I reckon.

    We got 500k plus unmet add-ons for Liam Boyce.  If we’ve got anything close to that for Jack Baldwin, it’s daylight robbery by someone.

    I guess the squad is just about where it’s going to be. For me, it isn’t any stronger than last season and with Dhanda away and Murray just about, our midfield and attack are weaker. It looks like a solid Championship side to me. Cowie’s job is to turn that into a Premiership side, hopefully he’ll do it, but I’m not confident. Hope somebody out there can reassure me…

    The midfield is definitely a concern.  No question it’s weaker than last season.

    I think the main thing to look at here is how Don gets these players working together. 

    Don's a clever guy and he has the clubs best interests at heart. I also firmly believe he will get a tube out of these players. 

    Murray isn't away yet, although I do expect him to go, but is anyone going to pay the money for him? 

    I like the contract lengths of the players work out. But I do expect a couple of loanees to come in the door over the next couple of weeks. 

    Murray is away.  Someone has overpaid for him.  As is Sims. 
     

    I rather get the feeling Cowie isn’t as keen on the loan system.  And I’m delighted. It almost never works out for us.

    It's amazing how Leeds can start with something as simple as all white and still get it wrong.  Even the badge is an abomination.  Like they had a competition and couldn't decide between the first three entries so mashed them all up.

    Adidas used to be quite good. They’ve been dialling it in for yonks though.  As we’ve seen with Scotland.

    Could be shite, but hearing positive rumours regarding Si, once County complete the signing of Ronan Hale from Cliftonville, it's all systems go, possibly tonight.

    A fee was agreed awhile back, but I don’t know who with.  A lot of posturing by Uncle Roy, unsurprisingly.  Expect it to be “undisclosed”.

    Interesting, I thought that getting a reminder was required.  Now we have Consumer Duty, I think at the very least would be considered as treating customers fairly, although that was only implemented last year.

    On this point, Nationwide are pretty great at this.  We got emails and letters saying “please look at your mortgage renewal because you really don’t want our standard variable rate”.  Or words very much to that effect. 
     

     

  8. The Felice Brothers -Valley of Abandoned Songs is great, if not quite as immediate as Undress or From Dreams To Dust, which is probably my favourite non Lee Bains Record of the last decade.  
     

    Very much a two in the morning whisky record.
