Anyone know what the hold up is with Aribo?

gmartin - I have asked that same question a few times. DR says that it is a done deal. If that is so then it should be out there. Just wish we could be updated. Of all the 'signings' this summer Aribo is the one that excites me the most.
Fingers crossed even Bridgeton cross (ed) if it helps!

Believe it or not the newspaper are not the ones who finalise transfer signings. It’s the clubs and their agents. Have a bit of patience people.

Charlton are offering him a new deal
If we are to be differing him 20 k a week he will need to be good.

BLUE89 don't be so naive. The media are heavily involved from the start. They decide where a player goes and for how much, they sometimes know before the player and club involved that's how good they are. When the deal is done the chief sport editor then has to ratify it before the player can sign, at that point the media can write a story. The player and club find out if the deal is successful the following day when they buy the paper. In recent years they have asked Jackie Macnamara for advice on some big money deals and when he is away with the United Nations then Chris Sutton is called in, although he is getting hard to get a hold of when he's working at GCHQ. When all that fails and the deal is 10 mill plus then the red phone is picked up at great expense to access the deal maker and breaker Mr Tom English. Who New!

TJBB, classic mate lol.

Now who would have thought that!
I suspected something was going on and it is no surprise that McNamara and Sutton are so heavily involved.
Where does Keevins sit in the set up?

Couldn't agree more. Aribo signing almost sounds too good to be true. Sounds completely similar to the centre back Mexer that had agreed terms and wanted a picture with Stevie G. Look how well that turned out.

Seriously hope he is not going to Rangers. Why would we be wanting to sign players of that age. My mate is a season ticket holder at Everton and he said at least a year ago that his legs are gone. I get the experience aspect, but surely there is nobody better to learn from than Steven Gerrard with his experience. Signing young players like Edmundson that have a sell on value is the way to go.

We surely aren't talking about Steven Naismith, the guy that's already signed a deal to stay at Hearts next year?!

Who gives a monkeys about Steve Clarke or the SFA!

Exclusive from where?
24 Jun 2019 11:06:28
We can only hope that Stevie G is bringing in younger, better players with a sell on value. There is no way we are bringing Aribo up here, 20k a week to sit on the bench. I suspect that getting Dorran's off the books will mean we are only 4k a week extra out of pocket for a young player that could have a substantial sell on value.

We have already done that @Deemc22 - you only need to look as far as Grezda.

I could well be wrong, but was it not down to Martin Bain that McCoist was getting paid silly money? I am sure that the season Walter was leaving, Ally was given assurances over salary and the managers position?

Look how highly players such as Trippier in the Premiership are rated. I read someone was looking at him for £18 million. He only scores now and again and he is bang average. Granted he might be able to defend. Unless anyone comes to the table with £10 million + then they can forget it.

Nasri was on about 60k a week at West Ham I am sure I read.
