Who's
Coming/Going...(allegedly)
This section details the welter of transfer speculation
linking us with players from clubs across the galaxy, as well as alleged departures from
our happy band. Rather than replicate stories day after day we simply make a reference the
first time a rumour reaches us.
The Rumours List should be read in conjunction with the transfers
page, which details actual rather than potential / imagined / made-up movements to and
from Gallowgate. therefore, if a move comes to fruition after being rumoured, you'll find
precise details on transfers, not rumours.
