Pretty amazing signing, cant see the 10/1 on them for the Championship lasting much longer after this signal of intent from Steve Gibson.

[ ] Yea, cos he is really good at scoring goals against half decent teams lol

good SPL Player against Killie, Dundee Utd and Aberdeen etc, outside those type of teams.......no chance.

Just look at his scoring record against us (1 goal in 20+ games), or in Europe (3 goals in 19 games)

He also wont like playing along side Scott McDonald, as with his height, he will be the one holding the ball up for Scott

Kevin Thomson going to Borough as well? Borough buying up the SPL?

Thomson is a far better player to have than Boyd outside the SPL, by a long shot.

Looks like the Old Firm are testing out how well they'd do if they moved to England. Can't believe they've sent the greatest striker to ever play in Scotland though!
Should be there or there abouts. Cardiff struggling for money still apparently and Forest yet to spend although Pratley was spotted in Nottingham.

perhaps if you said Switzerland, Sweden or Slovakia, other champoinship sides would be worried but SCOTLAND!!

Just LOL, try another one Jose

Serious question for the Scottish fans - what is Andy Dorman like.
We have signed him on a free from St Mirren, only seen good reports about him but just wondering what people had seen him play thought of him?

Thomson is a good/decent player. I can't believe Boyd is still underrated in Scotland though...completely baffles me.

Miller also up for sale, apparently...WTF is Rangers doing?

Cos he cant score against anyone half decent, simple as that, even rangers fan knew it.

I'm in 2 minds about boyd leaving...was never a great fan and make no mistake he wasn't a great player but he is a good goalscorer but like you say didn't score much in Europe or against Celtic but outwith that he scored a barrowload which is your bread and butter no? If we didnt have him last season the championship would have been a lot closer

I actually think he'll flourish in the championship...just like a lot of the fringe old firm players have done in recent years...its more his level than the premiership

He couldn't score against Celtic or in Europe that is all-big deal(he also rarely started in these games)...the rest of the teams are your bread and butter so he was obviously a valuable player

Boldie rangers offered him a contract more than any current player is on and he said no...Thomson & macgregor are highest paid on about 22k p/w, quite simply we can't pay much more than that

lol ok lets have a bash.........lets say  15.5

[Hairydude]

Good line...i was thinking about 16 so if he stays fit I'll go slightly over! Last seasons top scorer had 21; I reckon if he plays a full season he'll be top 5

I'm sure if u offered a midds fan him to score 15-16 they'd take it
