Does anyone know how quickly Caixinha can bring in Transfers? I.e. When does the window open? Because if we want a fair crack at getting into Europa Group Stages then time to get a squad to get to know each other (gel) is crazy important! Think this even applies to Freebies too!
The only thing that could help us regarding time is that if we win the cup we go into the hat at a later stage yeah?
Plus if that mob win the Cup does that mean that the team in 2nd would get that benefit surely that benefit does not go to 4th! I know that say Hearts get Europe due to either us the sheep or through tic winning the Cup but that cannot mean they get the bonus for it? Tell me if I'm wrong Bears! But the way I see it is if we get 2nd and the dark side win Cup then we get past 1st round or the sheep get this if they do yeah?
If there is any justice in this world then we will pick up the Scottish Cup a Cup that should have been at Ibrox last year! Keep Kiernan away from Hampden!
One more thing, I can't get my head round the fact that against Well we ignored Sendaros when having a depleted defence! The guy must be showing nothing in training but I wonder why he was even on the bench.
I think that 3rd is our destination and if this is the case I hope Caixinha would play players like Bates Atacki (spelling) and some other Youths IF we have a solid cushion between us and 4th going into the final 4-5 games after Old Firm.
Anyways thoughts on this Bears, and we can win this Cup! Not only does this Club need it the fans but the tic's bottle does smash when trying to get the Treble over the line eh.

Surely Caixinha will keep Hill and Miller for another season basically due to finances! Got a feeling that any deal offered will be on reduced wages tho with bonuses. By keeping Hill means were only shelling out for 1 CH plus out of our frontline i'd keep Garner and Miller.
I'm just concerned as to trimming the squad. Hoping Warbs comes in for a couple plus Hyndman ain't going to go across the City, he'll either stay at Bournemouth or a mid table Prem other a Championship Club will take him and offer anything between 25k-45k a week we cannot compete and don't think the tic will pay it same with Roberts he could demand more than that plus City will want at least 5m+ for him.
the tic could afford it but think they will want a more established older stronger player for that kind of money!

All Scottish teams who qualify for the Europa league start in the first round.

Fab. Scottish cup winners get into the 2nd round. If Celtic win it goes to 2nd place in the league.

I maybe wrong only show but I'm sure it was addressed a month or so ago . All Europa teams start first round this season regardless of league position or cup wins . Maybe an ed could shed some light

Scotland's Uefa coefficient has slipped from 23rd to 25th.
It means that the Scottish Cup winners as well as the league's second and third-placed clubs will kick off their European campaigns at the end of June
I missed this! Well that is a bloody shame.

I'm sure Hibs entered competition after Hearts and Dons had played the first round?
04 Apr 2017 11:43:07
Bears, we do not have the money for Hyndman or we cannot spend such a large percentage of our Transfer Fund on him I would really like him ti stay but what is he on at Bournemouth? Also staying down South and a Club can offer the lad anything between 25-45k a week we'd be pushing boat out at 20k! So its a loan job as I don't think we are paying 100% weekly wages.

i think king kenny should get another year and used sparingly!
clint hill shouldn't be anywhere near a rangers top!
our defence has been a disaster ths year and hill has only been the best out of a bad bunch!
he is too slow and needs replaced.

Optimistic feelings about next season. We have a group of players who I think DO have potential and when we signed them I had high hopes, players like Rossiter Windass Garner are guys who I truly believe have the ability to do their do extremely well.
Thinking we should sell McKay as there is a huge chance we will lose him for nothing as a Club down South will take a chance on him and be able to offer him more wages. Think he knows this and his head will turn, we need the money too.

All europa league spots are defiently into the first round this year due to the drop in co-efficent
04 Apr 2017 14:14:49
didn't he just sign a new three year deal (mckay)?
04 Apr 2017 16:53:41
If Rossiter can stay fit, Crooks comes back fully fit, Kranjcar can stay fit and Pedro is able to develop Windass and Garner then we could have a good quality team next season! We just need King and Co., to find the investment for four or five other quality players to come in and play alongside the aforementioned and Tavernier.
I don't see any point in keeping Hill or sadly Miller, (unless the latter was to be a player coach), and if we can get Warburton or someone to give us a decent fee for Kiernan, McKay, O'Halloran, Waghorn etc., then we should move them on!
We need a tough tackling centre back, a good strong left back, a quality winger, a quality striker and a quality midfield player, and we need the funding to make it happen!

If we get rid of McKay we will need more than 1 quality winger
