George Elokobi would be another guess.

Danny Shittu? He's 36 so about our age.

When you said 'neither' to stature or reputation, I took stature to means height, therefore when you said XXL, I took it mean he was small but chunky. That is obviously not the case, but trust it explains how I suggested Commons. Nevertheless, I obviously got the wrong end of the stick. Oh what it is to be informed eh.

Only a guess......and to me a fairly logical one (to me anyway) given he is available and a bit on the chunky side these days i.e. XXL.

Kris Commons? He's certainly small and fat. He is also 33-34, but get him fit and would on paper be a good option for an Attacking Midfielder.

What we will end up with is a Centre Half that can also double up at right back or vice versa i.e. someone like Paul Quinn. Not that I would want to see Paul back, but it is an example of what I'd expect the Gaffer to do.

I expect Watt and possibly McMillian to go out on loan rather than fester on the sidelines. In an ideal world you need 2 for every position. We won't quite be able to do that, but that should be the aim. Competition is good. Last season we really suffered as the competition wasn't good enough to replace the injured 1st team regulars. You can't deny that.

I have a feeling that neither Watt or McMillan are in the managers plans, especially Watt, as he hasn't been near 1st team football for a couple of years. McMillian didn't look very comfortable in the team last year and quickly dropped out the team despite Tait's injury. Also can't see Cadden playing there unless absolutely necessary. I therefore think another RB is a priority as you need someone to challenge Tait.

And you think we won't sign any.........c'mon, gees peace.

It is also worth remembering that we will be signing 2 first team goalies this summer.

Also recently started following Gael Bigirimana too.

Skippy clearly not too happy with the hierarchy: McDonald: Why I want A-League move Ben Somerford May 26 2017 1:15AM The 33-year-old striker, who failed to net in 26 caps for the Socceroos, opted against triggering a contract extension with Scottish Premier League club Motherwell earlier this week. McDonald is currently holidaying in Spain with his English wife and three children and will weigh up his options over the next few weeks, but hasnt ruled out remaining in the United Kingdom or even trying his luck in Asia. However, the Melbourne-born striker appears most keen on the A-League, saying an Australian switch will get the juices flowing. Ive been away for so long, a lot of people havent seen the best in me, McDonald told FourFourTwo. Everyone will always go over my international career. Its always great to represent your country, albeit not going as well as I wouldve liked, but Ive developed a hell of a lot. In terms of coming home, thatd certainly be something thatd get the juices flowing. Showing people exactly what I can do. I dont need to necessarily prove myself, but Id like to show people what Im about. McDonald (right) alongside Lucas Neill, Mark Schwarzer & Tim Cahill McDonald, who hasn't played for Australia since 2012, insisted he still has plenty to offer at club level, having netted 25 goals in the past two seasons for Motherwell. He said after two-and-a-half years with Motherwell, in his second spell with the Steelmen, he wanted a fresh challenge and the opportunity to achieve things. When you get older you dont want to become stale and settle, McDonald said. Im still wanting to achieve things personally and possibly pursuing going to the A-League would give me that as well. Ive plenty to offer. Ive got plenty of years to go. Im 33 now but I think as you get older you develop and you understand your body. You look after it. I definitely think if youre coming back home, the amount of games that are played, the way the staff look after you over there, the full-time professionalism, theres plenty of years left in my legs. McDonald at Motherwell last season McDonald came close to returning to the A-League in January with both Western Sydney Wanderers and Newcastle Jets making a play for him. The former Celtic man held advanced talks with Wanderers coach Tony Popovic and the deal was all but agreed, until Motherwell scuppered it by demanding a transfer fee. McDonald admitted the Scottish clubs position had left a sour taste in his mouth for the past four months, leading to his exit. Theres been opportunities to come and Motherwell disappointingly turned down the last one, he said. It was a bit of a sore one, everything was set and agreed and Motherwell pretty much put the blockers on it. Ive got to be honest, probably for the last four or five months of the season it had a little effect on me, in terms of where I was at. It made my decision clearer on what I wanted to do. Whether its in Australia or not, my time at Motherwell is up now and Im keen to try something different. McDonald hasnt played domestically in Australia since his time with Gippsland Falcons before leaving for Southampton as a 16-year-old. Hes visited and holidayed in Australia on numerous occasions but admitted settling down with his family in his homeland was attractive. Ive lived all my adult life in the UK, he said. I left as a 16-year-old. Ive got a young family myself now, so I would like to give back to them in terms of that lifestyle. But its just going to have to be whats right for me on a footballing level and also for the family as well. McDonald memorably scored for Celtic against AC Milan in the 2007-08 UEFA Champions League

Remember we need two keepers, so one will be the back up.

He had a clause in his contract that entitled him to a years extension if he wanted it provided he scored more than 12 goals, which he duly did whilst out on loan at Ayr Utd the season before last (14 I think). Sounds bonkers, but apparently true.

I agree that he has looked pretty decent the last few weeks as he has picked up a fair few goals, but his overall goal record isn't great if you look back over his career. Nevertheless, definitely looks more useful than Bowman/Blyth. If I hadn't looked at his career stats, I'd definitely have thought he was worth a punt.

Marc McNulty?

Who is the white josh magennis?

I hope not mind, we have enough veteran players.

Sean Maloney?

http://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2017/04/13/trio-tracking-wokings-18-goal-hit-man-gozie-ugwu/ HITC Sport understands several clubs are chasing non-league hot-shot Gozie Ugwu, including Motherwell, Patrick Thistle and Walsall. A number of English and Scottish sides are lining up moves for Woking striker Gozie Ugwu, HITC Sport understands from sources close to the club. Ugwu has been a revelation for Woking since joining the club last summer, scoring 18 goals and creating a further six assists in all competitions so far this season. Ugwu, who came through Reading's youth system, has played for Dunfermline, Yeovil Town and Wycombe before pitching up at Woking and his fine form saw him earn the Vanarama National League Player of the month award in November. The 23-year-old is out of contract at Woking this summer after signing a one-year deal upon his arrival at Kingfield and a number of his suitors are hoping to lure him away on a free transfer. Scottish Premier League duo Motherwell and Partick Thistle along with League One outfit Walsall, are among clubs known to have sent scouts to watch the highly-rated Ugwu this season and he is thought to have impressed them. Having previously scored goals in League One and League Two, it is understood that Woking are now resigned to losing their top goal scorer and will hope he can surpass the 20-goal barrier to help them stay in the National League.

http://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2017/04/03/chase-on-for-stockport-star-lloyd/ A number of Football League and Scottish sides are tracking Stockport County star Danny Lloyd, HITC Sport understands from sources close to the club. Left-sided winger Lloyd has enjoyed a stunning season to date for Stockport in the National League North, scoring 26 goals and laying on another 19 assists for the Hatters to make him one of the most in-demand players on the non-league scene. The 25-year-old joined Stockport from National League North rivals AFC Fylde last summer where he scored 61 goals in three seasons. Lloyd's performances for Stockport have not gone unnoticed among clubs higher up the football pyramid with scouts from clubs flocking to Edgeley Park to cast an eye over the free-scoring attacker who was named as National League North Player of the Month for March after a stellar few weeks last month. League One trio Walsall, Peterborough and Shrewsbury have been keeping tabs on Lloyd, while League Two promotion hopefuls Portsmouth and Plymouth Argyle are also keen admirers of the former Lincoln City man. Scottish pair Motherwell and Hibernian are also tracking Lloyd and they see him as someone who could prove to be a bargain addition to their squads for next season. Lloyd is out of contract at Stockport this summer and the club will face a major battle to keep hold of the Liverpool-born winger as interest continues to mount in the player.

Vala-car-i.........I'll get my coat!

Pretty sure part of the deal to sell him involved a sell on clause.
