The rumours come from Black and White Army. How much truth there is in either I do not know. McGowne would be a strange one as he only signed for current club partick Thistle in January and they probably wouldn't wish to let him go. A Partick Thistle fan I talked to earlier tonight said we'd probably need to pay for the defender's services.
Lavety would be an interesting signing. if he is fit and stays out of off the field trouble, and it is a big if, he'll be a fantastic signing and will fire in goals. I'd love to see Basher back so lets hope if it is true, he's fit.
Whilst we wait for official news on new signings, why not read Mirren Mad's interview with Basher from a few months ago? Click here to read it.
