I know you don't rate our strikers very well, but in reality 2 CB's inbound, 1 being Baird, is a much higher priority, even if either or both of our old guys looks like getting back to fitness - we cannot take that risk again surely - not at the sharp end of the season, and starting only 1 point about the play-off place...?

LB and LM also higher priority but a goal scoring player would be very well received . . . 😁

So one inbound, then. Not two. 

Much like a Tory policy with new nurses, signing one new player and retaining another player - even one who has been out on loan - doesn't mean two incoming as the player is already ours. 

 

ITK right enough.

At least you were half right that 2 CBs are coming in but given you thought one was Jack Baird, I don't believe for a minute you have a clue.

Be surprised if we didn't sign another centre back.

That's not up for debate, a second centre back will come in. It was his assertion that two were coming but one of them was Baird.

Might be a good option. 

Hope Cooke gets his chance in the remainder of the season. I like him and believe there’s a good player there. And goals.
I know he’s older than Stewart, but I don’t want to see us make the same mistake again, letting a good striker (albeit a work in progress) end up with a competitor.

I agree Turra. He has great mobility on the pitch. Competition for places is overall a good thing though.

Hi Dip stick -

Plan was for Baird to come back - the fact he is not only suggests that either another is lined up or both the injured guys are going to be fit after the break . . . perhaps Ton upped their share of his wages???

You really think? Was never coming back in January, despite your 'ITK' bullshit.

[Sweeper07 3,903]

Nice:  fellow fans who only offer abuse - 

Baird is still on an 18 month deal with us - so he will be back at the end of the season - and who can categorically say what will happen after that ? ? ? ?  

Point is JG only had limited funds - that is a big factor is his decision making - Are Ton paying the same portion of his wages or more from now on ? Contacts down there saying he has been immense for them . . .

By the way you are both off topic above AND still posting too much cr*p

We are in talks for a number of players - usual issues of getting the details agreed and signings done...

I give the abusers a taste of their own cr*p (which they dish out to multiple people ALL THE TIME) - Oh and I was 1st to announce both of today's signings before it was official - Oh good try on the clown thing BUT that's obviously YOUR JOB!   

There is still 3 more days before the weekend . . .  who is next in or out !!!!

I can't believe that you are back to questioning people's sanity when what they say doesn't accord with your view of the world. Sad. I'd advise counselling for you on anger management.

Really? As far as I am aware, we've splashed out approx £30k on a centre half today and another centre half should be announced in on loan either tomorrow or Thursday. Baird isn't exactly hamstrung by a lack of funding, more a lack of being wanted by the manager, going by the evidence presented.

The more likely situation is that Jack Baird was never realistically in the reckoning to come back unless either or both of these deals fell through. That he has been confirmed as back to Morton already says to me that one deal is in the bag (as we all know....thanks so much for 'breaking the story'  ) and the other is now very much a goer.

You offer nothing more than vague, catch all statements....you're like a medium, 'ohhhhhh....there's someone coming in.....there's a 'P' in his name......maybe a 'W'......an 'F'? There's definitely letters in his name.....ohhhhhhh'.  

That you even have the gall to claim you were the first to break McCarthy and McGrath were coming in when the former's name was literally all over social media for days and McGrath had been widely reported since last night is either top trolling or seriously delusional.

No you never, you absolute liar.

Scott Burns broke the story 24 hours ago on Twitter and you made no mention of it until this morning when it was in the written press.
