If it's going to happen it won't be while Scotland are still in the Euro's.

Speaking of which, there's a real clamour from Scotland fans for him to start, I can't blame them, but naturally that will put him in even more of a shop window than he currently is.

Yeah, it was a while ago. I wonder how many people from that forum are on here? I'm also struggling to remember if the names I remember were from there or from LAST, or any of the other forums I've used over the years... Bendybus Brianna, GGE as already mentioned, Drainman, Darren Washbrooke are a few of the names I think were on there.

Apparently it's a done deal... The only sticking point is whether it's an option or obligation to buy after.

I remember drainman, so he/she must have been on the official one. A mate of mine was called Dougie McGuire (I’d never heard of that player before)! Mine was brash and embarrassing (I was really young!) and I won’t repeat it!
As someone else said, I was on the BBC one as well! Ah, memories!

He was from the era when we had a proper reserve team who played midweek night games at Highfield Road, 50p to get in if memory serves.

Was a great prospect but think he got a serious illness and was never the same.

Wish there was a proper reserve league now, much better than the U23s IMO.

Yeah I was on 606. Neo was a massive wum, but loads were really decent posters.

Dougie had Glandular Fever and was out for over a year with it. Nice guy, shame the illness knocked him back so much. Think he could have been a first team regular.

No chance for Gilmour coming here after tonight. He’ll get a prem team or top league foreign loan move for sure.

Doubt he ever was just idle gossip & rumours. He needs to be playing regular though.

Grown into game well and one of better players on pitch. I was hoping I would see him at CBS Arena but I suspect it will only be on MOD highlights

Anybody who thought there was a possibility of getting Gilmour under any circumstances has lost touch with reality.

When’s he signing then? Definitely happening right? At least this gives the ‘ITKs’ an excuse for when they get it wrong.

“Yeah we were 1000% going to sign him until the England game but unfortunately that changed things”

Right officially withdrawing this now after seeing him play.


We definitely did have talks, as confirmed by a few on here.


But even il concede now we've got more chance of platting piss than getting him in


File this under 'we tried but beyond our reach'
