References to Ainsworth having a poor season, he hasn't really been given much of a chance since McGhee has arrived has he? Meanwhile Marvin gets 90 minutes every week despite having similar flaws in his game to Ainsworth. It's worth bearing in mind we wouldn't have got the memorable win at Parkhead without him, not to mention he's proven to contribute 20 goals a season if he gets ample opportunity. Hope he gets the chance to get it right up McGhee on Saturday.

Id be tempted to go with 2 wingers and a striker here. Having Johnson as the sole creative force is too easy for teams to come to terms with. Tad harsh on Moult but a front three of Johnson, Skippy and Ainsworth would pose Inverness with problems they wouldn't be prepared for.

Ah but what if he loses his man for a goal? Would McGhee be willing to publicly criticise Faddy like he did with Ainsworth? As for the game, we better be right up for this, no excuses. Defend well, create chances and score. Play to our potential and we'll win. The whole Tansey affair adds an interesting dimension to the game from an Inverness perspective.

Nah never. Apart from the Accies game, where he conveniently decided to own up to his mistake with the substitution, after the Hearts hammering...

McGhee post match focusing on the man who lost Lawless and cost us a deserved point. Who was the guilty party?

2 points out of last 15. Tad worrying. Think out over reliance on Johnson to create isn't helping us at present, hence why we could have done with a playmaker.

Wee Lawless. No good enough for Motherwell.

There appears to be little faith in Ainsworth, Thomas and Fletcher.

Is he looking a tad heavier than normal? That caught my eye in the Dundee highlights.

Surprised we've went with same lineup as Saturday, the likes of Ainsworth and Kennedy could have came in without weakening us too much. Hopefully tonight on a heavy pitch doesn't hamper out hopes in the cup. What's the script with Laing? Missed the bench again and wasn't in U20s team today.

It's one of the few names that springs to mind but he seems odds on to join St Johnstone.

Cheers. Struggling to think who we could be in for then.

Hadn't realised Chris Maguire had signed for Oxford. What's the script with free agents again? In order to be eligible, do these players need to have left their old club by tonight?

Much prefer this deadline day to the ludicrous one that propelled us deeper into debt. Having said that a fair few irons in the fire must have fell through in the last week or so. Got a feeling we'll end up with someone like Chris Maguire in the coming days. Of all the names dropped in the last few hours, Stephen O'Donnell would have been a welcome addition.

Higdon is ineligible for a move to Scotland. Ross County in for Goodwillie.

Hibs and St Johnstone in for Stef Scougall according to STV. Another very decent playmaker.

Gomis fits the criteria of the player we've all been looking for.

We don't really have a playmaker so I'd love a Law type player to run the midfield. Tansey seemingly heading to Aberdeen for £200k. They do a decent job of recruiting the best players in Scotland.

If Law is to leave Rangers, I expect us to have made enquiries. Doesnt look like he is available on a free though.

Rare occasion where I want the game off. Full week should be focused on cup.

Kilmarnock getting rid of Locke could be the best bit of business this window, particularly if they get Billy Davies in. Motherwell are good at keeping business under wraps but the absence of any rumours this month is a tad strange. Maybe journalists are just not interested now.

A draw is a decent result at Dens and sets us up well for a big week. Hopefully the sense of injustice drives us on at Firhill. Happy for our luck to wait until next Saturday. Judging by McGhee's post match interview, we could have a good few additions to the squad by then.

Sore one after leading for so long. Pleased to see Cadden get his 1st goal though.

Haven't seen him since he left Cardiff but that is a decent shout. I do think that McGhee will do down the experienced route if possible this month. Edit - he's seemingly set for Aberdeen.

If true, suspect this would be a pre-contract. Very much doubt Thistle would let their captain joins us just now.
