Scott Arfield pre-contract deal?

Exactly....the DoF oversees the leg work in scouting players to meet the managers requirements, discusses the options with the manager, who then says "I want X, Y,Z" & the DoF tries to make it happen.

Means the manager is not concerning himself about contract negotiations etc and can focus on the playing side of things.

Darther, are you saying Murty will be in charge next season ?

From FF ...

 

Arfield 3 year deal with additional option year and McGregor on 2yr deal - both being close to completion.
ITK posters know who the manager and number 2 will be but are unprepared to say. Number 2 is a surprise name.

Making signings and having a manager ready in waiting make sense.

 

I hope Arfield and his knees are in good order.

 

I'm amazed that the name of an already signed up manager is still a general secret if it has reached ITK posters.

Dave Messi is a decent player (no relation to Lionel)....lost a bit of pace since losing both legs, but not afraid of a strong tackle (in fairness, his wheelchair does give him an advantage).  ;)

I heard Dave lives in Acapulco.

WES FODERINGHAM is poised to quit Rangers this summer — a year after extending his contract.

Allan McGregor’s return to Ibrox will be sealed in the next 24 hours, as revealed by SunSport today.

That has left fellow keeper Foderingham’s future in doubt.

The 27-year-old won’t be short of suitors, with Nottingham Forest and Sheffield Wednesday both monitoring his situation.

He has racked up more than 100 appearances for Gers since joining in 2015 and penned a new deal last summer tying him to the club until 2020.

But McGregor, who made almost 300 appearances in his first stint at Ibrox, is closing in on a return and will undergo a medical tomorrow before sealing a two-year deal.

And at 36, he has no intention of returning to sit on the bench.

Burnley midfielder Scott Arfield will join McGregor at Gers next season after he agreed a three-year deal.

Both signings, driven by director of football Mark Allen, should be announced before Sunday’s visit to Celtic Park.

Jak Alnwick has been understudy to Foderingham, but Gers will seek to cash in on the latter, who was close to returning south last year.


It means Foderingham could have played his last game for Gers.

He is understood to be out of the clash with Celts due to the long-standing shoulder problem which saw him miss last weekend’s win over Hearts.

And there are now fears he will sit out the remainder of the campaign, with Alnwick set to face Celts.

Meanwhile, Scotland boss Alex McLeish believes McGregor has “plenty of mileage” left in his career.

The out-of-contract Hull keeper has played 43 games in the Championship this season and McLeish picked him for his first two matches back in charge of Scotland last month.

The former Ibrox boss, who gave McGregor his Gers debut, is sure the keeper can play for several more years.
