I am hearing Cammy Devlin is a strong possibility
18 Jun 2026 16:38:33
Would love this to happen.
18 Jun 2026 16:40:31
I can see that too, but I did hear he was in talks with Real Salt Lake City and they'd offered him a crazy wage, higher than any other club has/had offered.
18 Jun 2026 16:40:33
Great, good to see we're aspiring to get 4th in the league.
18 Jun 2026 16:52:06
Hate him as a player.
18 Jun 2026 16:54:39
IrvineBlue, $20, 000 a week, which is about £15, 000. Would be one of their highest earners, as believe they're on the lower end of the scale in the MLS when it comes to yearly salaries. A decent wage tho!
18 Jun 2026 16:54:51
Wee guy is a terrier and would be a great addition to the squad.
18 Jun 2026 16:56:37
Depends on the price/wages. Would personally rather keep Barron. Very similar type of player, and he's Scottish.
18 Jun 2026 16:57:37
Devlin is a sensible signing. Free and cheap wage compared to some sitting on our Bench. His stats the last 2 seasons, from breaking up attacks, regaining possession, are brilliant. If we want to play with press, you need that in your side.
18 Jun 2026 16:59:24
Dado, I agree! Think he'd be a great signing. Think there's a misconception that he's a liability, but he's only had 2 red cards in 5yrs at Hearts. ?
18 Jun 2026 17:15:29
Just no.
18 Jun 2026 17:20:27
Easy one to do.
Would expect him signed once Australia are out the WC.
18 Jun 2026 17:21:25
Decent player but would pick up a lot of red cards playing for us.
18 Jun 2026 17:22:15
Guys hate him as a player, bet players hate him as a player too. He'll do for me. Defensive stats are through the roof. Not every signing will need to be nailed on starter, although we need mostly that for sure. 28 years old with an excellent work ethic.
I actually wasn't bothered about signing Devlin, I actually thought he would end up at them.
That was my only worry, because he would definitely become the Scott Brown/Lennon etc etc that we hate. I fancy one of those annoying little pests in our team/squad for a change.
18 Jun 2026 17:24:43
Had to read that twice superally.
18 Jun 2026 17:27:28
About as useful a signing as Kenny Black. Simply no.
18 Jun 2026 17:28:27
What's Cammy Devlin's natural midfield position. ? I know he is similar to Connor Barron, so I would assume a no.6. ? What's others thoughts. ?
18 Jun 2026 17:30:46
Not winning the league with Cammy Devlin.
18 Jun 2026 17:39:19
Barron better, he doesn't improve the squad I don't think.
18 Jun 2026 17:41:56
A free with little risk. 100%er, which is my type of player.
18 Jun 2026 17:49:14
So that free on £15-20k per week. For what would be a squad player? Ferguson is on £20 at Bologna, so do you think Devlin is worth the same weekly wage? Then we have to pay Ferguson £25-30k and we are back to over-inflated wages.
18 Jun 2026 17:49:18
Think he's more about getting about the pitch than the man.
18 Jun 2026 17:51:43
On a free? Squad player? Yes.
18 Jun 2026 17:52:14
My thoughts remain unchanged if we're going to buy the Hearts squad who finished second to a s*** Celtic were in trouble, especially Devlin, who's been around the SPL long enough to have more than just a mere half season where he was good, nothing more! Only other player I'd take from Hearts is Braga and not at the money they would want.
18 Jun 2026 17:55:42
Our whole squad is about to be changed across our playing squad. His fight and aggressiveness is what we've been missing as a team. Airfield and Davis being the last two players to run through brick walls.
18 Jun 2026 18:10:00
So, we don't want EPL level players, but we want average SPFL ones? Would rather play our youngsters than bringing Devlin types.
18 Jun 2026 18:17:34
Yeah, he had a good season, but that's it, doesn't merit a move to Rangers if we're serious about getting back to the top.
18 Jun 2026 18:30:56
Sign Devlin on a free. Sell the other midfielders that have let us down.
18 Jun 2026 18:40:00
From Ferguson to Devlin in 24 hrs, my club.
18 Jun 2026 18:49:40
More snobbery with Devlin.
18 Jun 2026 18:55:21
Not snobbery, we already have Barton and Cameron.
18 Jun 2026 18:59:53
If we sign Devlin as a no.6 then the club don't need to spend EUR12-EUR15 million on Ferguson. ?
18 Jun 2026 19:12:58
Barron has been rumoured to be moving on, and Cameron, as much as I thought he would be a decent signing, hasn't been, and had a poor loan.
18 Jun 2026 19:23:43
? Good spot, Biggles. Glad I didn't misspell, or I would be getting banned from the forum. ??
18 Jun 2026 19:27:41
Anyone know the stats between Devlin and Barron?
18 Jun 2026 19:40:32
Someone not being good enough to improve our team is not snobbery. I feel that word gets thrown about very easily these days. How can it be snobbery when everybody's happy to take Shankland. I'm sure everybody would take Just and Watt also.
18 Jun 2026 19:46:43
Don't know, Jking, but would prefer Barron in my team.
18 Jun 2026 19:54:08
Star, with my glasses, I think Barron & Devlin would improve us. Very like for like. I don't think Cameron is suited to us.
18 Jun 2026 20:00:01
I don't believe it's snobbery that people don't want him. For me, he is better than Barron. That's just my opinion, and I would take him for a squad player.
18 Jun 2026 20:04:51
Devlin was Hearts best player till he got injured last season. ? Had he not been injured he would have been player of the year, and Hearts would have won the league. I'll take someone like that on a free any day of the week.
18 Jun 2026 20:10:12
Just Ian Black mark 2, he played the same way with Hearts and was useless when he signed for us.
18 Jun 2026 20:14:17
McInnes loves Devlin. He spoke very very highly of him in an interview last season. He might love someone with more quality on the ball who has similar traits to Devlin he can buy, but we need to build a squad, and on a free, if McInnes wants him, I'm happy.
18 Jun 2026 20:32:23
Jking, Devlin was better in interceptions and tackles per game than Barron. Devlin was, I'm sure, best tackler in the league. However, Barron was better than Devlin for progressive passes, accurate passes, passes into final third and touches in final third.
Barron is also, what, 5 years younger than Devlin and homegrown. So for me it's incredibly short-sighted to replace Barron with Devlin. But it is only my opinion and respect to those who disagree even if I disagree with that opinion.
18 Jun 2026 20:46:55
Delvin would be a squad player, but remember he's on a free, so wages would be higher o still think he would need to be on under 10k.
18 Jun 2026 20:47:45
McInnes doesn't manage Hearts anymore, so what's good for them doesn't mean it's good for us.
Devlin is a downgrade on what we have. We're trying to win the league, not finish top 3.
18 Jun 2026 21:58:21
Cammy Devlin would've got POTY last year had he not got injured. His positional sense is brilliant. When teams are attacking, he can break up play, and can still chop in with goals. That's something we never get from Barron.
18 Jun 2026 22:12:59
We have a squad. What we need is first team players. If all fans seem to be wanting to sign at the moment is squad players, we will have 50+ players, but only 4 or 5 for the first team.
Yes, he is free, but he will want more than the £15k he has been offered in US. That isn't a good deal for a squad player.
18 Jun 2026 22:31:41
He makes the squad better, Angus, so we should sign him.
Anyone that says he is like/or just as good as Ian Black should take up watching netball, Jesus wept.
18 Jun 2026 22:58:43
I think what we need to remember is that some of these potential new players are not coming in to eject other players from our club, but transfer deals may have already taken place for some of our squad, such as Barron.
Therefore, we need to have replacements ready to fill the gaps. Devlin, amongst others, do that. We need players with the mindset of "always a little further". Our team certainly lacked that self determination last season.
19 Jun 2026 08:26:37
Storm, you only think that because you don't like Barron. I don't see much difference in quality, and Raskin is miles above him. Yes, he was at WC and Barron wasn't, but he got nowhere near the pitch. There will be better out there who actually improve us for the weekly wage we will be paying.
Yes, he is better than Ian Black, but tbh I think I probably still am. ? So it isn't a high bar. But I do like Devlin as a player, but don't think he is good enough. But just my opinion, and I have been wrong once (I think).
19 Jun 2026 09:32:09
Cammy Devlin is the type of midfielder you love if he's playing for your club, but is hated by all other supporters and players of other clubs just by the way he goes about his business. ? He's an absolute pest for opposition midfielders. ?
19 Jun 2026 13:07:02
Is Devlin not another one that's out of contract? If so, do we really want to make a nobrainer mistake like we did last year with Mulligan and Shankland? Could we not just see if he will agree a break clause, if it doesn't work out first season? Sure, he wouldn't be hard to deal with if it meant he signs for Rangers.
Big career jump for player.
19 Jun 2026 13:08:25
Plus we all complain that club should be snapping up best league players like him or not devlin falls into that category and do the stats not back that up
