cambiebud Posted January 17, 2019 Report Share Posted January 17, 2019 Fairly underwhelming so far. Fingers crossed that there’s some good news soon. Can we field a team against Alloa? Never mind, Parkhead, Hibs at home then Sevco away so nothing to worry about![emoji33][emoji33][emoji33] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If, as has been suggested in the papers, that Ibrahim Meite is now on trial from Cardiff then I'd think we can assume that interest in Malec is over. Who knows what's happened there. Could have been fitness, might have been finances, might have got a better offer elsewhere, might not have impressed in training. None of us know, we're only guessing. I can't really get too agitated about not signing a player I've never seen play other than on YouTube. It could also be character/ chemistry. I think in just about all of Oran’s signing statements he refers to the players’ character and ambition. It’s not just about ‘can they’- it’s also ‘would they play/accept direction’ and ‘would they fit in.’ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bud the Baker Posted January 17, 2019 Report Share Posted January 17, 2019 I'd have liked to have seen more in by this stage but I'm happier than I was two days prior to our first game of the season against Killie in the LC back in July. Only one definite miss in Hammill and a coupla possibles in Jones & Lyness. Famous Last Words but providing we go in with the right attitude we should beat Alloa, Celtic (a) comes into the "anything we get is a bonus" category so the real test will be against Hibs on the 27th - as ever COYS!

Ferdinand is indeed contracted and has been back up here since Xmas break. Not sure why everyone is thinking he might be off? He'll be on the pitch on Saturday as far as I'm aware.

While keeping Anton would be good I don't think that really improves the team given he's been part of the team already..We need players that are going to make us better.

Fingers crossed! Feckin hope so, at present we look very vulnerable purely on numbers of fit, professional footballers who have played at least at this level.

I share these views. Beating Alloa is important. Anything from Celtic Park would be good and a cracking game against Hibs just after where a win would be great. As another poster pointed out there are others still to come in and those coming later in the window may well be those of the highest quality in th transfer period.

Yep, we don't want a Kenny McLean scenario of leaving on the last day of the window and not having enough time to get a replacement in. Anton strikes me as too professional to do that though.

Oran might play 3 CB's with wingbacks - he might play 2 and drop Baird. He might not want to risk Ferdinand - he has options, tactics and the team to pick - I was only trying to show that we had a decent 11 players to line up on Saturday as it stands. Also expecting others to be signed by close of play tomorrow too... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
