Well done for United, staving off the "bigger" teams to snatch the wee Irishman. Still can't believe Rankin.......

Yeah, good news. I hope he still the player we all remember.
Rankin was a solid player before he went to Hibs, where it has all gone wrong for more than just him. I think / hope he will turn out to be a quality signing for us.
