Hmmm, not sure on Loovens. His form isn't great and he has already rejected a move back here so not sure I want him if he's not that interested.

The problem is Loovens Heart and Mind Doesnt Want to play for US again and that would be a Worry if he was off loaded here, Twice He has Now Turned US Down, When Celtic have Told Him to go.

This is my worry with him. We want players brought in that are going to bust a gut for the club to achieve promotion.

Lack of commitment to the cause combined with his ropey form at Celtic = No thanks.

Reynolds is highly rated and Motherwell knocked back a few bids for him before. I'm sure the jacks were linked with him as well.

I'll do a bit of fishing and see if his team mate I know has heard anything!

You can understand players with kids not wanting to go out on loan though.
Id welcome him back

Fair point - one of the reasons Gavin Rae didn;t want to go out on loan.

In general though, I'm not afan of players returning to clubs, very few seem to work out 2nd time round, with the odd exception of course.

I was a fan of Loovens as well but i dont want him here now. In my mind they need to want to play for us and he don't. We have enough passionless players manager at our club at the moment. We dont need another :ayatollah:

Yeah I actually agree about players returning....I think that shows how poor our CB's are that I would welcome him back.

He's out of contract at the end of the season if I remember correctly, if nothing else we could get him in for the summer. They have rejected bids in the past, willing to take the gamble in the hope of getting into Europe.

We need different characters in this team, players with big hearts who won't roll over easily
when the going gets tough. The statistics don't lie, Jones doesn't go for that type of player
that's why we need a change at the top for the second half of the season! Unless this happens
we will always be the "soft touch" of the championship."And by the way players don't go back
to previous teams and do it a second time, they normally go out to grass.
