So they are both either stuck with their respective dross, or have to pay hefty payouts. Either way, I am laughing!!!!! No sympathy for either of these cnuts

If he's currently concussed and not quite 100% then now would be a good time to put the contract in front of him.

Dundee keeper Jon McCracken also called up.

Rico I think you are overestimating the tribute act at the moment, I really do. I've been checking in on their forums since the Kiev result and when you filter out all the knuckle draggers the more football savvy hun is very depressed right now. The consistent message is basically "we are terrible, worse than we were last season, broke, temporarily homeless and it's going get worse and really toxic cos we are not equipped for a thursday-sunday schedule, I'm more depressed now than i was in 2012 as at least there was hope then" One was even smart enough to put it together that they are probably going to be 8 points behind us (not that I'm taking that for granted but I can understand why we will be favourites to beat Motherwell) by the time they kick off against Utd and they are very worried about that Utd game I might add. Clement is looking like a rabbit in the headlights after a promising beginning and one poster said "we just need him standing in a bush now", a lot of them have turned on him. I don't think it matters what they are spending 2bh because they clearly are not spending it well. 2nd place is well up for grabs imo, I'm not saying we will defo get it, it's a long season after all, but I think it should be seen as a realistic target given how we have started. I mean, if we are going to do it this is probably how it looks to begin with. It should also be recognised that this isn't all about the huns being shite. Sure, that's necessary, but despite being a work in progress we are looking far better than I expected us to at this stage. It's not unfair to say the fixture list has been kind to us but pre Thelin coming in the door the biggest question mark was how we were going to do against teams that sat in. So far, so good on that front and I don't know about anyone else but I'm really looking forward to the Dundee away game at the end of the month because this will be the first time we play someone that is actually going to try and have a go at us. As for that work in progress it's also worth noting just how much time on the training pitch Thelin is getting with his players compared to his counterparts at rivals. I think that is a real silver lining for not getting into Europe btw, Thelin is getting plenty time in his first season to work with his squad and I genuinely believe we will see performances improve steadily throughout the season as a result far more than we would if we had a European campaign to negotiate. All in I think we have a hell of a chance of getting second, i certainly don't think they are overtaking us in the table anytime soon.

So has Naismith - he was extended to 2026 4 weeks ago, Clement to 2028 3 weeks ago. Pricey either way.

Niall McGinn back in Scotland, signing for Greenock Morton.

Ok, this has to go down as the most random post on the board ever made.
