You look at Halkett, you look at Finlay, you look at Cammy Devlin in the middle of the park, you look at Lauren Shankland up top, and they were complimented by the sort of Jamestown signings, if you like.
Would you expect there to be a similar...
game plan this summer that Derek McInnes will be looking at players like I know Lauren Shanklin wasn't his signing but you know if that's fine as the likes of Lauren Shanklin Ross McCrory who he's now brought in Andrew Kavanagh saying they're going to have a Scottish bias in this transfer window is that what you think Derek McInnes will look at and then be complimented by maybe some guys that have been identified by the recruitment team?
How important do you feel that is?
Because I think people value that differently because we've seen managers go in and it's a big thing that's attached to both Celtic and Rangers at times.
Managers are players that know what it takes to be at the club but we've also seen successful managers that have come in from left field to the clubs and been a success and not known anything to do with the club.
Because there is that, you know, the Scottish bias that people talk about, but I suppose that extends to not just players that are exclusively Scottish, but people that have played in the Scottish Premiership have, you know, that experience of knowing what the league is about and maybe it helps them adapt quicker.
So would you expect there to be more signings from other Scottish clubs, even if they've...
Yeah, Alan, there was a lot of talk about winning trophies.
Dennis McInnes saying that he knows he won't be in the job long if he doesn't make Rangers domestically relevant again.
How confident are you that he's going to be able to do that and going to be able to do that quickly?
he certainly has a lot more faith in the structure at Rangers now than when he was previously offered the job back in 2017 he knocked it back he was asked about that yesterday and he said that he didn't go into detail about it but he said it's a different ownership now and the club is being run differently which maybe gives an insight into why he didn't feel it was right at the time and gives an insight into the fact that he feels that the right people are at the club now for him to go in and find success
Right, any thoughts on that?

We're going to go back to Miami because I think Scotland fans have been spending pretty much all of today looking at the groups, looking at what points everyone is in, looking at that third place table, trying to work out the permutations, seeing what games we need to watch.
I'm not asking you to go through every single permutation, Gabriel, but just give us a flavour of what Scotland's chances are looking like.
That'll be some of the Scotland fans will be going back to their families and they'll be saying, oh, how much did you see of Miami?
Do a lot of the touristy stuff.
And they'll be like, I was actually sitting inside a bar watching Cape Verde, Saudi Arabia, cheering on one of the teams to see whether Scotland were getting through.
And that's it.
