Drew 21,117 Report post Posted June 11, 2018 24 minutes ago, Magic Monkey said: Some goal he scored against England the other night. Aye, he looks a player based on that goal and a few clips I've seen of him play in other games. Certainly not lacking in touch and confidence. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seems a tad elaborate (and pointless) to have been a wind up. No chance was it a wind-up - although hopefully his bit about 15 scouts in the new Football Manager was as it'll be my job to add them! 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hendo 3,041 Report post Posted June 13, 2018 I saw on P & B that Falkirk were being linked with Fraser Hornby, who is a forward with Everton. One Falkirk fan reckoned he was out of their reach. Only 18 but very highly rated apparently. Just wonder if the Everton connection might mean we'd be in for him. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Be nice to see some movement on staff, players or backroom, before the end of the week. Pure impatience on my part, I do recognise that it's worth the wait to get the right people at the right price - I'm just desperate to see our squad assembled in time for them to gel before the start of the season. 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A highly rated young striker sounds like a good fit for us. I'm sure AS is well aware of him, and others, at Everton, and will be working that angle. Just hope to see some movement soon. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Drew 21,117 Report post Posted June 13, 2018 (edited) I'm assuming this news might be something to do with additional revenue/funds that might be available to the manager.... Edited June 13, 2018 by Drew 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah. Think it's to do with the stadium name change and the finances that generates rather than actual personnel by looks of things. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And I take it all back. I’d never heard of Calum or seen him post or quoted on here before. Have since checked out his twitter account..... I’m pleased with the stadium sponsorship deal he was referring to. Am also happy with the appointment of DJ although accept that opinion may not be universally shared. In AS we trust. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
