Told this morning partick thistle have made loan enquiries for Weston and mcausland

Also Motherwell interested loan for Alegria.

I seen Alegria in a B game and I was hoping he would get a run at some point. Has to be better than Itten. I know he scored on Friday but he still looked murder to me.

Morning john do you know if we will make any signings b4 the end of january?

Bluemark so alegria scoring 4 goals v Junior players makes him better than itten? Weston hammering the goals in yet not in contention. Alegria miles away.


4.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 11:39:31
Paul Alegria has scored nine goals so far.


5.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 11:42:06
K3 I’m told likely two in.

Itten was shocking on Friday. His goal was the only good thing he did. He has no pace, awareness, strength, power, or skill. He is a good natural goalscorer but he doesn't fit in with our system.


7.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 12:08:12
Agree RFC. He was brought back because we know Defoe was going and Alf was to be called up.
Also roofe may be called up.
I’d be surprised if we don’t move him on in summer.


8.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 12:09:16
Totally agree with the comments, itten for me and contributes next to nothing, yes he scored but my god it’s murder watching him.


9.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 12:11:34
My point is john if anybody deserves a run out its weston.


10.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 12:12:51
I thought big Itten did well, maybe trying too hard at times but can't decry him for that, can we?


11.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 12:16:46
Yes Paul86 Alegria is better than Itten. Would have Weston in ahead of him too. You do get your knickers in a twist if anyone says anything you don’t agree with. Opinions mate.


12.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 13:01:37
Weston must be pushing hard however may need a wee loan firstly.


13.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 13:01:42
Been saying it for a while, although I consider his next step is a loan deal,
He is very light weight, can score, a move to say thistle would be excellent for him.


14.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 13:08:38
personally I would rather that we gave one of the young lads a chance rather than persevere with Itten. The guy continually gets outmuscled by mediocre Scottish defenders, he is hopeless in the air, he flopped when he was out on loan, (which is the only reason he is back) . He lacks courage and fight and I don't think that is something you can coat into a player. You either have it or you don't!


15.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 13:20:55
My friend who is in the dressing room tells me 1 definitely coming in (not including souttar) and maybe a 2nd, no names mentioned he doesn't always divulge them- he previously told me about lundstram and sakala before they were mentioned, he's also given me names that didn't materialise so need to wait and see I suppose.


16.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 13:21:48
Think Motherwell would be great for Alegria I thought we would of ended up sending them itten so he could get game time.


17.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 13:27:57
Alegria can’t play for the first team for six months since arriving at Rangers. The lad is also desperate to make the step up to first team. He asked to go out on loan and wanted to go to Accies but was told no.


18.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 14:03:27
You’d think that Gio would have at least considered who is the best option before deciding on match day squads wouldn’t you?

Yet another manager who picks the team using straws - if only the board understood that the real professionals post on here.


19.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 14:07:47
Blackwood can u explain why alegria can’t play for six months.


20.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 14:11:05
RFC and Berkshire
1/ we recalled itten as Defoe left and Alf away
2/ itten can’t go on loan fifa rules, can only play for two teams competively
At present itten offers more than Weston and Alegria.

Jack boy my source telling me the same mate.


21.) 23 Jan 2022

I heard its a right winger from a Bulgarian team we are after. Again only rumours.


22.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 14:39:37
Sweep that appears to be a click bait article where he is named as fourth choice. Seems to have an ok pedigree.


23.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 15:30:49
Jackboy55 hope you do have inside information as it would be exciting to have another poster in the know. would be a pity if you were repeating what someone else posted earlier. take care mate and looking forward to your future posts.


24.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 15:39:39
For all those saying weston and alegria should get runs in the 1st team obviously never seen the b team against cove they are lightyears away from being ready for the 1st team.


25.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 15:42:08
John25 I’m unsure of the total politics from this case but my daughters best friend is GF ( or seeing each other as the young people call it these days ) and it came from her. The lad has been in my house numerous times and is bursting to get a first team opportunity.


26.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 16:08:35
I know 2 current players really well and like I have mentioned before they give me no information whatsoever. Certainly about future signings as they wouldn't know any more than most. Scouting team, executive team and coaching team are the ones who know who we are interested in and who we have made bids for. The only time any current players would know anything is if they've seen a player in for talks or medical or if the manager asks an opinion of possibly the captain but this is not something that happens often. that's the way it should be and I'm happy that when I ask I get no info whatsoever.

John25 has a source and quite rightly keeps it to himself. I don't want to know who the source is but I'm betting its someone behind the scenes like I've mentioned or a trusted person the club may ask opinions of. John always posts well balanced rumours stating what he has heard something an a lot of the time he is right.

Jackboy55 it's good to have someone else on who has contacts as its exciting to hear the news and gossip, particularly when it comes to fruition. Keep posting pal and keep your source to yourself or they'll stop giving you info.

I might just be a crap pal and that why my sources tell me nothing🤣🤣🤣.


27.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 16:25:42
There is no 6 months thing stopping alegria playing for 1st team unless it’s came from manager as there is no rule from anywhere else.

John do you think alegria would be up to it in spfl like with a Motherwell?


28.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 16:34:34
He would get valued minutes at spfl level.
He has a lot to learn. Imo better learning at another spfl in the first instance.


29.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 17:10:24
Orygbmb and MOCbear I see this member of the backroom staff once a month, I don't snoop for info but might ask the odd leading question, I tend to get more info on injury situations than anything else and other titbits, sometimes I get some transfer news, would never give up who it was, for instance, and maybe this is common knowledge but I know for a fact we enquired about Nisbet last summer there was concrete interest there, if I hear anything I will put it on.


30.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 17:12:46
Ajd interesting to note you say b team against cove players are light years away from first team

Lowry king mcann played that night.
Alegria had 20 minutes when 4-1 down.


31.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 17:26:36
I don't get people saying they are not ready nobody has a clue if they are ready or not only way to tell is give them a game or two. Kane was woeful on loan championship came back to spurs and click. I'm sure plenty said Barry Ferguson wasn't ready or mccoist in this country our players are 21-22 and we still refer to them as prospects or young players it's stupid by same age on continent the have 4 or 5 full seasons under Thier belt this is why we have good youth teams up to a certain age others pass us by because they don't get a chance in our first team on continent they do Patterson was sheer luck with euro rules about domestic players and injuries otherwise would have never got a chance and funnily enough still didn't after it was clear how good he was. We need to be braver when it comes to youth.


32.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 17:35:13
Never heard of any six month rule before, but I think I recall when he signed that someone said he was six months away from the first team? Probably wrong, I've got the memory of a goldfish these days.


33.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 17:47:04
Jack boy have u picked up any story re Ryan. Jack fitness.


34.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 18:28:35
Tavs that was written re his fitness levels.


35.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 19:47:06
John noted your point but there was none of that team that were ready for the 1st team imo technically very good but imo the lowland league isn't doing them any good as a standard it's given the b team a false sense of how good they are they either need to get the b team into the league or go out on loan to league teams to get the proper experience.


36.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 19:54:16
Have to disagree but respect your opinion.


37.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 21:07:15
Few saying Alegria is million miles away.


38.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 21:59:18
Bonnyrigg Rose are running away with the Lowland League, wonder if they have any players that we can buy and put into our 1st team. only saying.


39.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 22:17:25
John25 there are no concerns about Jack's career or long term future, I do know the coaching staff regard Jack and arfield almost as one player now due to injury issues (at least they did under Gerrard) I also know 2 players have a terrible attitude towards training and look for any slight niggle to sit sessions out, apparently a pair of hypochondriacs.


40.) 23 Jan 2022
23 Jan 2022 22:44:02
Cheers John 25, as you most likely have gathered, I just don't rate Itten, so much so that I wouldn't have him anywhere near the Team when we play Celtic. I just think it would be like playing with 10 men. I would rather we went with an additional midfield player.
One plus, it looks like Aribo will be back and so far no indication that Roofe is being called up for International Duty!


41.) 24 Jan 2022
24 Jan 2022 07:08:57
Roofe not called up I assume Jack boy Roofe is a player refer too any injury does sit out.


42.) 24 Jan 2022
24 Jan 2022 10:28:35
Pretty harsh on Itten. I thought he was one of our better performers the other night after not playing much footy lately. He will get goals when he plays as he gets into go areas.

Yes he isn't complete like morelos but for me a decent replacement.


43.) 24 Jan 2022
24 Jan 2022 10:46:58
John25 you would be correct in that assumption👍.


44.) 25 Jan 2022
24 Jan 2022 11:18:33
Hi john25 do u know if we will make any signings in january?


45.) 25 Jan 2022
24 Jan 2022 10:53:35
I think that would be good moves for all 3 to be honest and they would all be playing at a higher level and they are just now.


John do you think it maybe a bit too soon for alegria? As he has only been in country a few months or is he ready.


46.) 25 Jan 2022
24 Jan 2022 10:53:58
K3 I believe we r trying to bring two in.


47.) 25 Jan 2022
24 Jan 2022 13:26:33
I have always thought that there is a, talent in Itten but it is frustrating knowing he has talent but can't reflect that in his performance.


48.) 25 Jan 2022
24 Jan 2022 11:33:38
For all those saying weston and alegria should be getting runs in the 1st team the b team game against cove showed they are lightyears away from being ready for the 1st team.
