7 hours to get 3 deals done from what's being reported LWB CB St

I wanted him aswell think he'd be perfect in the middle of the 3

Also am I missing something Brophy is exactly the type of St we need quick good movement and a decent finisher would probably help Bair aswell as it gives him someone to flick the ball on to

tbf mate i'm quite happy with that we have some poor players on the wage bill atm. Ideally I'd keep Casey Mcginn Miller Davor Spittal Bair Gent permanent And maybe Kelly if he starts performing to the levels we know he can consistently wait and see on the new signings.

Anyone else think that Zak Rudden to Motherwell is bound to happen this window or just me

That Callan Elliot looks decent in the very limited amount of footage i've been able to find of him. Looks like he wants to get forward and put balls in the box.

Id personally make 2 Changes Kelly Casey Mugabi Blaney SOD Paton Slattery Miller Spencer Spittal Shaw Purley because the last time we played St Mirren Bair was an absolute ghost feel Shaw can also help us stretch the pitch that bit better

None of them failed but i've openly criticized Mugabi on a few occassions but he deserves praise for his recent performances and long may that continue

I'll give credit where credits due Mugabi has been quality the past few games

So with that our squad for the season is Kelly/Oxborough/Connelly SOD/Spencer Mcginn/Mugabi/Butcher/Casey/Blaney Gent/Souare/Wilson Miller/Zdrowski/Slattery/Paton/Spittal Wilkinson/Bireth/Efford/Obika/Shaw Where do you think we'll finish? I'll be optimistic and say 6th

Georgie Gent it is then can't help but feel we're still one short in the midfield but hopefully we've got enough in the team to mount a top 6 charge

I'm quite happy with Oli Shaw coming in he can score a few goals and he's got a bit of pace from what I can remember and decent hold up play maybe not the most clinical tho can't help but feel we should have taken Fletcher on for a year but let's get behind the lad

While i have heard the 1 in 1 out quote multiple times the same thing has been said by multiple of our previous managers before signing 3/4 guys on deadline day. As i said above the St is the priority and from the sounds of the rumours it will be Steven Fletcher. The other 3 areas mentioned all need strengthened wither we actually strengthen those areas remains to be seen.

Did he? I just assumed he didn't want to come back because the team were playing awful.

He clearly prefers butcher as the CCB in the 3 and Zdravkoski looks like more of a box to box for me on the small sample size we've seen of him The St signing is the priority for me but we definitely need the other 3 positions as well the boy Spencer looked ok as a Lwb but wanted to come inside too much for me would prefer a left footer in that position. The Cb also would be quite important because I don't know about you but Mugabi never fills me with confidence and Paul Mcginn can get bullied in certain games so a more physical centre-back with experience wouldn't go a miss for me. IF Fitzwater would come I think he'd be an excellent signing. Fletcher and Penney seem like 2 deals that can be done. On the midfielder front not really sure who we can get but I'd definitely like to strengthen there aswell. I'd ideally move Mcginley on. Keep Efford till Jan and move him on then.

To add on to the above a couple of the free agents I'd be looking at Matt Penney-Lwb Paul Osew-Lwb Jack Fitzwater-Cb Ben Heneghan-Cb Luke Amos-defensive mid Dominic Gape- Defensive mid Cameron Mcgeehan- Centre-mid Steven Fletcher-ST Jay Emmanuel-Thomas-St Mckinstry also still available if he wants something different shape wise That's just a quick list of players who are available who ive watched before and thought were decent no idea what sort of wage some would want but all have a decent no of senior apps at a decent level

no disrespect to Dan but im not sure i regularly want our Cb in the oppositions box on sustained attacks against better sides they'll kill us in the vacant spaces left

Personally think we still need 3/4 more in Could do with an experienced Cb to play in the middle of the back 3. Need a Lwb to bring an natural balance to the team. Would take Penney who is a free agent atm. Still don't have a defensive midfielder. We also need another St considering we have about 2 available not including youth players,

Team v Hearts for me would be Kelly Mcginn Casey Blaney O'Donnell Slattery Paton Spencer Spittal Bair New St Miller needs carefully managed a not sure playing him v Hearts would be the right move

Statistically teams don't tend to have as much height as us. Surley Miller or Slattery can take a decent set-peice

Well with Bireth out for months we need another ST. Still need a defensive mid Still need a LWB if hes not going to play Ewan Wilson Need n experienced Cb as we have no decent depth there We've had an ok window so far but we 100% need at least 4 in

Thought I was the only 1 how can a guy so big not be able to judge the flight off the ball time and time again hes in the wrong positions and strikers take advantage. Not keen on any of Lamie, Mugabi, Blaney, Mcginn as Cbs Casey, Butcher and ideally add 1 more

On a Positive when was the last time we had all of our striker options contribute in the first few games

Ideally Furlong, A Rwb and a Defensive mid feel we're lightin terms of competition in all 3 areas

I don't think any striker we bring in will but I do trust him to take more chances than Obika will.
