By how far?.

:lol:

Quite a way I think. You seem to think that I've said DG wont make it here. My point, to an ealier poster who said that many Dundee Utd fans think he's the best striker they've ever had, was that that means nothing.

That's all.

I don't know where you're getting that from, but as much as I rate Goodie, he isn't the best striker Dundee United have ever had! In fact many fans rate Johnny Russell to be a more than able replacement, from our youth team.

Possibly the equal of Kevin Gallacher at the same age, but Gall was playing in a team that beat the likes of Barcelona home and away.

Paul Sturrock is the greatest striker we ever had, and given we once sold Duncan Ferguson for the then British record transfer fee, Goodie would need to be raking in around £50m to equal that!

It was a reply to 67 splitscreen.

The DU fans rate him as one of their best in over 50 years according to some, even better tha Gally at a similar age.

Anyhow I was looking at Fletcher's goal stats in the prem as the rate him much better also.

First season 8 in 31 games at Wolves last season 10 in 15 games. Give the lad time to settle in and I'd be happy with a similar return to Fletchers stats for last season. :D

I was speaking to a mate on saturday night who is a Rangers season ticket holder. He is gutted that it looks like we are going to get him. Reckons he's a pretty decent player. Will be quite pleased if we sign him, would much us sign young talent at a decent price than looking for a 'marquee signing'.

Why has it taken til August for us to finalise this deal?

I don't know much about the guy or how good he is. Although we are badly in need of strikers at the minute. If we sign DG, I would still want 1 more permanent top striker and 1 more on loan.

The further away from the team Roberts is the better.

Apparently on radio Lancs the lad has signed, can't confirm it as I can't get radio on t'internet (work blocked) I thought this web site was up to speed. Ummm hopefully it is true. :D

5'9" isn't short - either in life, or in the sport of football.

Rovers did have to resort to Allardyce type football to keep us up last season, we went a lot more direct in those final 4-5 games.

He might be great in the air (I don't know) but if we are going to play with one up front I would like to see someone taller in that role.

Rangers due to bid again.

Glasgow evening times.

That will be the 10th time that Rangers have made an improved bid. 1st it was 1mill, then 1.2mill, then 1.3mill, then 1.4mill, then 1.5mill, then 1.6mill, then 1.7mill, then 1.8mill, then 1.9mill, and now they are bidding 1.99mill.. still short of what Dundee wants :lol:

I don't think they will accept Rangers bid. Dundee and Rangers hate each other, and he doesn't want Goodwillie to end up with their bitter rivals. Unless they offer more than us, I don't expect him to accept their bid, even if they match us.
