January 2010 Rumour Mill Issue 2

Last updated : 28 January 2010 By Stuart Gillespie

Basically, this is a list of rumours picked up from the web and papers over the last few weeks. If a player leaves or signs after being listed here, details will appear in a future issue. If the rumour wasn't mentioned here, it won't. Simples!

Not a lot involving Saints, so, without further ado..

IN

Paul Cairney: A goalscoring midfielder with Partick Thistle. Would the first division side let him come?

Jonathan Grounds: A leftback released by Middlesbrough who is supposedly training with the club.

Danny Kedwell: A striker with a good record in the English non-league system with AFC Wimbledon. However, the conference side apparently want a quarter of a million for him so it's unlikely we'll make a move!

Jim McAlister: A creative midfielder, exactly what we need. St. Johnstone also want him, and Morton would probably prefer to sell to him than us.

Franco Miranda: The Argentinian left Saints in the summer but is rumoured to be interested in returning to the club. However, we couldn't afford him then, so why can we afford him now?

Chris Sharp: Good scoring record in Wales and apparently we were previously interested in the Bangor Town hitman.

OUT

Billy Mehmet: Links to clubs in Turkey have recently resurfaced.

CONFIRMED

Mo Camara: OK, he didn't join Aberdeen, but he has finally left!

Stephen McGinn: The midfielder joined Watford a fortnight ago.

Dennis Wyness: Like Camara, paid off and told to go.

NOT HAPPENING

Gus MacPherson: For some reason, Preston went for Darren Ferguson instead.

That's your lot for now - if more rumours surface over the weekend there may be one more issue on transfer deadline day.
