David Goodwillie?

He joined a sinking ship last season and his legal troubles are behind him.

Maybe worth giving him a chance to re-start his career? Get him for less that we were going to pay last season.

MM saw something in him last summer.

Bellers flopped in his 1st season and many mocked Sir Bobby for forking out 6 million for him - I'm not saying that Goodwillie is as good as Bellers, I'm just saying it's hard for a young player to shine on a poor team that is free falling down the league.

I think we should of took him last season and that was the chance time to move on and aim a bit higher! :ayatollah:

If they can persuade Blackburn to let him go for under £1m, then yes, he's worth a punt.

Can't see that happening, though!

Blackburn would have to take a hit.

No way should we match what they paid for him last summer.

A million or less.

Don't Mason and Velikonja play the Goodwillie role?

I haven't seen anything from Goodwillie in the past year to make me want him in the side before Joe or 'Ety'!
