He may ge a good player. But aren't you concerned that we could shell out a large sum for a player ( weren't they asking for £2 million from Rangers) who could then go to prison either for the rape he has been charged with

Or this

He may well be innocent. But can we take that chance?

Loving it if we get him. Another good player, Can see this being with the Chopra money (if we had it)
Malky going for players who are proven in Scotland and real workers

Of course they can't know he'll get away with it.

We can't influence the scottish legal system!!

He was only charged with the second offence yesterday!!

Regarding the £2m price tag Dundee Utd quoted Rangers....please bare in mind that Is an inflated fee based on the fact that Rangers are a huge rival to DU so they are hardly gonna sell him to them for cheap. I should imagine half that would get him. He's lightning quick and got a real eye for goal. His off the field issues do worry me however. I have it on very good authority that Craig Conway and Goodwillie are best mates and would therefor make sense

yeah i agree,im really pleased how MM and the board are going about the rebuilding process,when chops,jay,burkey and the loan players left i feared wed have to make do with players on the cheap maybe from the lower divisions and have 7 loan players again including ex prem stars who jsut want a paycheque,conway was a fantastic start hopefully he may help MM intice goodwillie to cardiff :ayatollah:

he's only 5'9" so a small fella much like Robert Earnshaw but a good player all the same. so if we are going for the 2 of them then we will need 1 or 2 big fellas up front Parkin is ok and one other lots of people wanting Bothroyd back but I cant see that happening

We've got to be careful

He is a very talented footballer and a natural finisher BUT we'll need to have a clause in his contract. If he gets found guilty of any of those and gets a prison sentence, we need to be able to tear up the contract quickly!

Seems more a DJ signing than MM...

I like the sound of this lad, but am a little concerned for the cost he may prove to
Be a bit if a gamble when he has this legal matter to sort out.
Would he be in the right frame of mind with it hanging over hi
?

He'll never get convicted of rape in modern society and the way the judicial system.

he'll have a good lawyer who'll play the old 'she was drunk' card and the case will get thrown out or there'll be a lack of evidence.

buy him for £2m. Hes not going to prison and in a few years time he could easily be worth £5-10m in my opinion. I've seen him play and hes that good.
