Just read that Morton chairman and the man who saved our club Douglas Rae OBE has passed away. RIP Dougie, you will always be remembered by Morton fans for saving us when all seemed lost.

Stuart Armstrong to Southampton apparently

Following that well worn route - off to the RS for £40 mill in two seasons time

Alan Gilzean. What a star he was. £100,000 from Dundee to Spurs was a huge fee to us kids in the 60s.

Always looked about 50 but a cracking player, remember him playing for Spurs and Scotland, shame to hear of his recent demise.

He used to stand at the near post and flick on corners and long throws.

I remember seeing him at Goodison in about 72 I think. Super player, seemed to always find space in the box and I remember him being good with his head for someone his size.

So Aberdeen, who finished second, have sold their best striker over the last few seasons..

No, not to AC Milan... But he's joined non league Salford City.

Salford, the new moneybags of the National League buying promotion. It’s an interesting league to compare with Scottish football outside of the traditional big clubs. Wrexham regularly get a crowd of around 4 1/2 thousand better than most Championship crowds , and in a reversal of this transfer three or more years ago sold their top scorer in the NL Louis Moult to Motherwell.
Apparently Aberdeen received £375k for a 30 year old they picked up for free, so not bad for them, I’m sure he’ll continue to be a prolific goalscorer for Salford.

If you've ever been to Aberdeen in the bleak mid-winter, or bleak summer for that matter you'd be happy to go play for Runcorn FC never mind Salford. It'll feel like moving to Spain with the weather change.

Scottish Football is a joke though...

Not really that day , a short visit digging a garden. But out in Moray where I stay it’s been a glorious summer, brownest I’ve been in years...... and Highland League football returns this Saturday, pie before hand, cup of tea at half time, good banter, probably sunshine, what’s not to like about Scottish football
