div Posted December 19, 2016 Report Share Posted December 19, 2016 not looking at midfield cover? Info I was given tonight from Irate Pirate said centre mid already agreed, left back close to being agreed. I suspect left back might be Calum Waters from Alloa. After I retweeted that stuff, Dougie McNeil said a CH on loan might also be a possibility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, he definitely said he already had a deal in place for a CM. He's hoping for an answer from the left back tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TsuMirren Posted December 19, 2016 Report Share Posted December 19, 2016 Looking for a left back,centre half and striker in the Jan window. Centre half was more a maybe, he feels that Darren Whyte could provide some cover when fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a tough one as the defence hardly inspires confidence with one clean sheet in 17 league outings. If Gallacher, MacKenzie or either full back gets injured right now we're back in trouble. That said, we've got Baird, Webster, MacKenzie, Gordon, Naismith and at a push Irvine who can all play CH along with Whyte who he seems to really rate. A natural left back will be great as it will allow much more competition in the full back areas. I suspect Irvine is more comfortable playing RB, and Naismith I still reckon would be a more than decent option at CH albeit he is finally recapturing his form at Right Back. Gordon injury is a blow, and I never really thought I'd be saying that a few weeks back! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon injury is a blow, and I never really thought I'd be saying that a few weeks back! Yeah, you can see that Irvine is uneasy at times. Not David Barron at left back levels, but it's still there and a factor. MacKenzie looks to have finally found his form, whilst even Webster has been better lately. We're also a lot better ahead of the back four now so the ball isn't coming back quite as easily as it was. Plus there's been less goalie > full back > goalie > centre back > full back > centre back > goalie style phases of play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonny Posted December 19, 2016 Report Share Posted December 19, 2016 A decent striker would be nice. We are now making plenty of chances just need someone to tuck some away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonny Posted December 19, 2016 Report Share Posted December 19, 2016 Centre half was more a maybe, he feels that Darren Whyte could provide some cover when fit. Only seen Whyte a couple of times and he looks a very good prospect but still too young for immediate needs I would have thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bazil85 Posted December 20, 2016 Report Share Posted December 20, 2016 Centre back I'd say is a must, don't trust Baird or Webster playing regular. Both have been very poor this season, choice between the two would be Baird but purely out of necessity. Naismith has also had a poor season, couple of better games but nowhere near his best and even recently he's only looked like a decent lower Championship level player. My priority would be a left back then let Irvine and Naismith fight out the right back (Irvine right now) space, a center back and a striker so pretty happy with this. If we do get a midfield injury we could revert to a 4-4-2 or maybe drop Gallagher back (and hope to god he improves) to bridge the gap.

It was brought up, but an official answer couldn't be given as it hadn't been discussed by the board. If I remember correctly, GS said he wasn't personally in favour of it.

Hopefully it gets knocked back in the 11-1 vote before it even reaches our level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So here we are 6 weeks later still looking for a left back better than an out-of-position Irvine and a reliable CH - whodathunkit!
