Jim was saying last week or this week we might be close to signing Connolly on again. What formation is he thinking if did sign Connolly again and Burke? Is it flexibility hd is going for?
442 you have Tait and Fraser as the defending wing backs? Burke and Connolly on either side? Where would Kiltie factor
532 or 352 would mean Tanser on left as more attacking? Would it be Dunne in back 3 or Fraser?
Will be interesting for sure.

It seems for the first time in ages we would have a squad with competition for every position.

That would be good for a change.

I still would love the niggling mid who becomes the panto villain to be signed as well.

Same. I think that's the missing piece certainly if JDH leaves.

Might be nothing in it Tony Fitz has started following regan hendry would be a decent signing been standout for Raith this season

Wherever he's off to he's on his way apparently. Motherwell seems favourites to sign him according to Raith fans.

[elvis 3,008]

Strange I have not read any Raith fans say that most are wondering where he's off to.

One states that’d he’d heard an unsubstantiated rumour it was Motherwell on their thread in P&B. Don’t see any Motherwell fans suggesting this, so wherever he’s off to their keeping their cards close to their chest.

I misread the posts on P&B and it would seem that Hibs, not Motherwell, are in pole position.

Magennis getting pushed further down the pecking order.
Along with Malian.

Would definitely have Mallan back.

[Doakes 3,042]

If we don't get Hendry, Mallan would be a great signing

[MenstrieSaint 1,095]

I've  a feeling we already have a couple of bids in for Jamie McGrath and he will be away by the end of the month. Just a hunch. 

Would love us to make a move for Stevie Mallan if thus happens. 

 

Our next signing will be a big strong defensive midfielder to play next to Erahon, as I reckon JDH will be away too.

I think you are spot on

[Bgsaint 68]

I wonder if Aberdeen will offer some cash plus M.Kennedy, Goodwin tried to sign him before he went to Aberdeen. . (Edit, forget this idea just googled and see he played most games last year doubt they’d want rid)

I rate McGrath higher than Mallan. I haven’t seen much evidence that Stevie has improved greatly since he left us.

Yeah, I’m not thought bought into Malian returning. Nice footballer, but I don’t think he’s what we need.

I think we all remember his wonder goal and his free kick ability, but besides that I don’t think he brings the same kind of energy and drive as McGrath who I can’t remember having even been substituted during his time with us.

yeah he did when he injured his shoulder (pedant) sorry 😶  

[Sonny 9,414]

McGrath is a far better player than Mallan.

Rather keep him, until at least January. Get get the benefit of his play and possibly more interest from other teams.   

[norrie82 1,557]

Please don’t sell to Aberdeen. Jamie is twice the player Mallan is - Mallan is a decent player but he isn’t in the same league here. If we get a good offer from England fair enough but selling him to Aberdeen for 300k is a joke and it better not happen - if it does I’ll be amazed

[elvis 3,008]

Am I missing something here have Aberdeen made a bid for him.

[portmahomack saint 1,900]

If Jamie wants to go the club will get the best deal they can, we have a board who will spend the cash to benefit the team...  that's not always been the case,

They come and they will go,...  That's how it always is with us.

We lost McGinn Mallan Magennis and got better and stronger
