baillieinleeds Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Aye, but we can sell him for £40k and sign a couple of absolute fucking jobbers who haven't kicked a ball for months! Two players instead, man!!!! Or £25,000 and a box of quavers. Our board love a good haggle 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy85 Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 No disrespect to the rest of the league but Rovers shouldn't need Vaughan to finish top of the pile. Your only credible challengers are Ayr and they always bottle it. Given you generally hand your exciting prospects away for f**k all if a club asks nicely enough you'd imagine any offer verging on 6 figures would taken without the need to even think about it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The second paragraph is pretty accurate. Just think about the 200 club getting more of a variety of crisps and peanuts. The excitement is almost palpable 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not this time. It'll be pretty painful watching Spence try and schlaff his way to 10 goals this season otherwise. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BinoBalls Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Anyone know what sort of team Rovers are likely to field against Brora? Given the way you dismantled Buckie in the league cup, I was fancying a bet on RR to win by more than 1 goal, but if Smith puts out your U20s then that may not be a good idea. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donny86 Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 What would be the development fee due if he was to run down his contract?Is the reason that Sibbald has re-signed for Falkirk not that anyone wanting him was due 250k fee? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hank Scorpio Posted August 14, 2017 Author Share Posted August 14, 2017 It'll be pretty close to first team I'd guess. We don't have that many more players. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBH, I'd rather we rested some of the starting 11 as we don't want to risk injury, we have a small squad so it'll be damage limitation. I hope. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hoping he might start Gordon Dalziel, Tony Rougier, Tade, Colin Cameron, Guido Van De Kamp, and of course Lewis Vaughan. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd honestly rather send out training cones than compete in the Irn-Bru cup. We could stick Osei and Court up front, give Berry, Thorsen and McKay run outs as well, put Matthews in for Robertson. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

renton Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Come to think of it, sending the youth and 'squad' players out to get a mugging off of Brora might have an additional positive effect in that it might give the board a moment's pause to consider how Barry Smith is meant to plug the gap left by selling on one of his guaranteed starters. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raith25 Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 I doubt in a time when the board are trying to rebuild a broken relationship with the fans would they accept a bid for effectively our star player. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Money talks at the end of the day. The board will have a figure in mind that they know they can't turn down. Whilst I've no doubt Vaughan will have his eye on the future it's been said from people close to him that he's not actively looking to leave. That makes it even more frustrating that we're effectively pushing him out the door. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALDERON Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 How are we pushing him out the door? A good player is scoring goals and therefore generating interest. That's hardly pushing him out the door 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
