Hoping the gap in midfield means that Campbell gets promoted from the U20s, he was a standout in the cup final win.

I too hope he manages to step up and gets some first team game time but we can't expect him to be a central midfield mainstay week in week out at this stage.

We are so over subscribed in central defense and with McGee playing an untried Hall ahead of Laing and Kennedy last season then bringing in another central defender days ago, you'd think there will be changes.

 

Once again, no replacement on Hammell or Lasley. We shall see how Tait is ahead of Law at right back.

There's Scott Burns confirming Dean Brill has signed and the club are hopeful of Hammell signing a 1 year deal in the next 24 hours.

We are still pretty short in central midfield, think we need at least 2 in. Also if McDonald is gone, we'll need another striker.

 

That gives a 22 man squad with two players in every position.

McFadden hasn't signed and he's not a midfielder. And it's Richard Tait not Paul. But your general point holds...

Well he's been offered a contract and he's at the club doing physio so I think he'll be there next season. I also think McFadden will play in midfield, if he does play. He's not going to play wide or upfront with the personnel we have and I don't see why he can't play a similar role to Pearson supporting the forwards, playing just behind them and getting into the box.

 

Yeah, I keep thinking Paul Tait, must be one in football somewhere!
