Very good player. Gave us (Aberdeen) the run around and scored against us a couple of times. Loads of potential and know that Craig Levein rates him. Just glad he's went to the Bluebirds instead of the Huns... :-)

Great signing if it goes through. Hope we sign him and Taylor within a few days. Our left hand side would be sorted. Both quick, and can turn a game around by them selves. :ayatollah:

How much would his value be if he was under contract ?

If this signing comes off, I'm really excited by it.

He sounds like a cracking player.

Just spoke to my nephew who lives in Glasgow (who is a Rangers season ticket holder) about Craig Conway.....really rates him. Says he can swing in dangerous crosses and was the main provider for Goodwillie. Thinks he is a better all round player than Burkey? :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

Craig Conway chooses Cardiff City over Rangers

Conway made 137 appearances for United during his time on Tayside
Cardiff City have beaten Rangers in the race to sign out-of-contract Scotland winger Craig Conway.

The former Dundee United winger says he has agreed terms with Cardiff City and will have a medical in the next few days with the Championship side.

"I was really impressed by [Cardiff manager] Malky Mackay when I met him when he was manager at Watford," Conway, 26, told BBC Scotland.

Cardiff, who face a big rebuilding process, have refused to comment.

Conway's agent, Mark Donaghy, held talks with Rangers last week but no offer was made by the Ibrox club.

New Cardiff manager Mackay was keen to sign Conway during his time as Watford manager.

Conway was signed for Dundee United by then manager Craig Brewster in June 2006.

He has made two appearances for Scotland and scored two goals in Utd's 3-0 win over Ross County in the 2010 Scottish Cup final.

Along with Rangers and Watford, he had been a target for a number of English clubs including Leicester City and Leeds United.

No such thing as a done deal until he has put pen to paper. Until that is done there is still a chance for another club to snatch him or for contract discussions with us to breakdown. Only done deal once a contract has been signed.

Not a done deal until he "puts pen to paper" to use the hackneyed phrase

Sorry didn't see this until I'd posted mine!!! Pure coincidence that my post is so similar to your first sentence.

Great minds and all that.
