I think one extra body in that area could be necessary. The run to the cup final this year is going to place extra strain on the squad so we need that depth. 

In a Sander Puri sorta way?

Has only played 21 games for Rangers and Hibs combined, but still experience. 

You have to wonder why his loan at Hibs was cut short, and he never played from October onwards.  

I don't think he ever fitted Hibs' system and seemed to have players in front of him in the pecking. They seemed very overloaded in midfield. Much easier to cut a loan short than try and offload a contracted player.

The **** in work seem to rate him. 

If he signs,  hopefully we're the right fit for him.

He's a year into a 5 year deal with them.

Funnily enough, someone in my work compared him today to Gregg Wylde which gave me the fear but Wylde was at least decent for them before they died.

Don't think I, looked li have ever seen him play. If he turns out to be a Hodson type loan then great.

I'm sure I saw him play for the  Scotland under 20,s when one of their games was televised live from Paisley , he played well looked like an old school

Middleton injured in a reserve game. Looks like that one is dead.

[Hambud 3,136]

Aye, and because of Jacks respect for Jim and his adoration for our club we would be to trust him 100%.

No chance of skullduggery there.

Jim would have talked to Jack Ross about this player and will be in a great place to make a solid judgment.

Goody confirmed at yesterday's press conference that we weren't in for Middleton anyway. Last time we made any enquiries was in the summer and he picked Hibs.

Seems like we have our eye on a couple of other players going by his interview. He said we are in no major panic to bring anyone else in though the one or two we are looking at would add quality to the squad and may be too good to pass up. Something along those lines.

He said they are " very good players ". Very intriguing.

It's a nice position to be in and make a huge difference vs many previous windows (with the exception of the summer/2nd winter windows when Ross was in charge.)

If we can add further quality, then so be it, but it's not 100% essential and if we're better off saving the money to do PCAs/get even better players in the summer, then fine.

A wide player and a striker according to Goody in the 1877 tonight.

Three games in eight days , probably means a wee bit of squad rotation . Probaby need our best attacking  eleven for the Aberdeen game .

[FTOF 10,961]

I'm presuming that Kirk was being protected for the visit to ipox.

Div tweeted that Kirk was being put through a work out by Junior before the game.
