Mark Allen has the hottest phone in football according to Graeme Murty.
Four loan deals and a transfer fee brokered by Douglas Park, Sevco’s money man and a Hamilton Accies shareholder, to sign Greg Docherty has got the Sevco support to the same levels of excitement that greeted Joey Garner’s Champions League winner at Firhill.
Rookie boss Murts has never been involved in a transfer window before and can barely contain his excitement at the flood of English Championship cast offs that he has to work with.
“Mark Allen has got the hottest phone in football and that is as it should be because we want good players coming into the club,” the former Norwich youth coach told The Sun.
While the attention is on the loan players coming in Allen is frantically trying to balance the books with players, clubs and agents well aware of the desperate need for cash at Ibrox.
Danny Wilson and Bruno Alves are trying to negotiate pay-off’s to quit the club while Josh Windass and James Tavernier are both waiting to see if they will be offered contracts in line with Carlos Pena and Eduardo Herrera.
