apparently QOS have offered our summer target Grant Savoury a 2 year deal......

I would be making him a better offer. Something we need to do if we're serious about winning the league.

Seen on twitter that Josh Rae had shared that tweet about Savoury being away, would think if Savoury signs for us, Josh Rae would follow suit.

This.  Some would call me arrogant, but if we want to have a serious campaign this season and Savoury WAS one of our main targets then we need to put some of our resources into securing his signature and stop him from going elsewhere.  I know clubs don’t get to sign everyone that they want but this seems to be a very doable addition to the team. Board have to work with Reese to get this over the line if its that important to our plans

Thought the same about Cammy Ballantyne but we managed to get that over the line on a two year deal despite him rumoured to be going to a championship team. Josh Rae already rumoured to be signing for Carlisle by a few posters on here anyways. But for Grant Savoury I think both Airdrie and yourselves have offered him a two year deal.

Where did you hear this, out of interest?

 

Just rumours going around at our end our summer targets were Ballantyne, Brown and Savoury,  only heard of QOS the other day, he might not sign for any one of us, I expect him to be unveiled somewhere in the next few days... I dont know where the Josh Rae GK talk is,  we are apparently going down the premiership loan keeper route.

 

question would you guys take Connor Murray back....

It would be a very meh addition. I wouldn't be annoyed but I certainly wouldn't be excited by it. He'd probably be solid enough signing at this level but being greedy I'm hoping for something better than Murray.

Happy to see Hutton back. He gets a lot of stick from supporters of other clubs, but he was genuinely a very good goalkeeper (a deserved PotY) and won us more points than he lost. I've seen a few people say he's a downgrade on Currie but really what's important is that he's an upgrade on Jay Cantley and he's a sub goalkeeper we can rely upon if he's ever called upon. Besides, if the boy from Celtic (or whoever we sign) is any good he'll hardly ever play. Plus it's always nice to have players, coaches and staff who love the club and who it means a lot to which definitely comes across as the case in Hutton's interview. And, as said previously, Hutton on the touchline will be a right laugh. McCabe and Fordyce obviously trust his judgment as a player and a coach which should count for a lot. 

Cammy Ballantyne on a 2-year deal is an ideal bit of business. A few more deals of that calibre and we'll be grand.
