    Agreed, seems decent enough. Looks to have a bit of pace about him, which is something we`ve been lacking in the centre of the defence.

    Him and only him would I consider signing.

    I would probably take Allan McGregor. We need a goalkeeper and it would be hilarious to see the look on the faces of the unwashed masses if he was to sign for us.

    The rest of them I wouldn't touch with a bargepole.

    I would take McGregor if it was purely on goalkeeping ability.

    But the guy is an absolute fud, and I wouldn't want to see him pull on the Hoops full stop.

    Don't know if would ever truly be able to get fully behind them(that sounded wrong) don't get me wrong if one of them scored for us i would celebrate like normal, but the fact i referred to a potential Celtic player as 'them' says it all really, so no.

    That's not a problem, our goalkeepers don't wear the Hoops. :86:

    Spot on Jay Jay. I agree 100%. He scores one good goal (and it was a cracker), and everyone thinks he's Messi. * awful player in the long run and simply would not displace anyone in our midfield.

    As for Naismith, decent player, but his knees are *, and I wouldn't touch him with a barge pole. Bocanegra is decent, and that is it - I'd rather we looked elsewhere for a central defender.

    I said earlier in the thread that McGregor is the only one who would get a game in our first team, and I stand by that. If he weren't such a * of a guy, I'd consider it, but this is the guy who claimed to have been assaulted by Celtic fans in the town centre. After a huge outcry, and much finger pointing at our clubs supporters, the police pay him a visit, only to find that he's talking *, and that his girlfriend gave him the black eye. That whole episode has been completely swept under the carpet. The man's an * and I wouldn't want him in the hoops if he were as good as Casillas.

    fellas I think you are looking at this the wrong way, just think how much we could charge his parents to play for us! 1mil no make it 2mil,and with that money we could go out and sign a REAL TALENT not that hack!

    The beast, Bocanegra and Davis I can see why some people might think they would do a turn (I don't myself)

    McCabe though? Are you kidding with that one?

    I wouldn't take the beast over Forster.

    Forster is younger, hungrier, and has bags more potential.

    Plus he is a better human being.

    Yes, i'd love to get Bocanegra, I wouldn't turn down a good cb who is captain of his country.

    That's a thought, actually!

    I know it sounds stupid, but that would make it less unacceptable. :56:

    But as he is in fact a fud and three-quarters, it's still a Naw. :50:

    Wouldn't take any of their players.

    Well, I'd maybe take Bocanegra, but he would be the only one I'd even consider. The rest are no way better than what we have already.

    a few of them could do a job. whittaker (defensive cover at RB CB or a starter perhaps), Bocanegra, Davis, Naismith, and McGregor could all do a job for us.
