Possible OUTGOINGS
We know that Jack Hendry and Calvin Miller could be going to Rugby Park as part of the poker game.
Hendry will have to be loaned out as he’s on decent money and isn’t giving that up to play on plastic. Neither player can expect to be in Neil Lennon’s plans.
Anthony Ralston has an admirer in Tommy Wright and that looks like a good loan move for him if it goes through. Another fringe player unlikely to feature if he hangs around.
Olivier Ntcham was outstanding yesterday. It would be some way to sign off in the Hoops if he gets his move. No-one will be unhappy if he stays and maybe he’s mellowed now that he’s back and enjoying his football again. Last season’s sulk seems a distant memory now.
Scotty Sinclair – not in the manager’s plans. On big money. Had his contract extended by the Pistol so that he’d attract a transfer fee but it’s all gone a but Pete Tong for player, manager and CEO on this one. A solution needs to be found or it’s going to be another Big Bobo situation. Another fine mess and all that.
Craig Gordon – his media comments before the game at Ibrox suggested that a) he knew that Fraser Forster was starting and b) in that instance he wanted to leave to ensure he can play games in the last year or two of his professional playing career. Which seems fair enough. The manager is unlikely to be able to keep three potential first pick goalkeepers happy so something has to give.
Jozo Simunovic – if there’s an opportunity to get enough money for the injury prone Croatian so that Aberdeen’s injury prone Scotsman can be brought in then it’s a one in one no brainer for the treatment table. Did Lille ever make that bid or was it just paper talk?
