The Irish lad is a decent RB, more attacking minded and his brother is a good player too. P. McGinn to keep his place in midfield . . . . Mentions Hodson being on the radar of two English Clubs earlier. Bolton is one and Ipswich is the other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spankin_panda Posted January 23, 2019 Report Share Posted January 23, 2019 (edited) We were against celtic tonight and didn't expect to take points, however, what we witnessed shows how far off top level football we are... quite a distance in fact. In the centre of midfield we couldn't string the most basic of passes. No cover from the midfield for the defence. In truth, I think we are soo far off with a squad that its hard to discuss what it is we need. A better Left back, centre mid, striker and winger than what we have at the very least. I want to be positive, I usually am, however, the truth is we are where we deserve to be at present. Lets hope we can gel and turn this around Edited January 23, 2019 by spankin_panda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meiksyboy Posted January 23, 2019 Report Share Posted January 23, 2019 Going by our performance tonight albeit against Celtic away we are half a team short, I don’t see any improvement and 1 week to go in the transfer window it’s worrying.

Wendy Saintss Posted January 23, 2019 Report Share Posted January 23, 2019 What’s the problem? Now that Stubbs is away, why doesn’t OK just play the side that won promotion? They beat Livi to the title by some margin after all. Oh wait.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billyg Posted January 24, 2019 Report Share Posted January 24, 2019 (edited) I have to say that , by now , I was expecting to see a squad ready to tackle the run-in , this Sunday's match is winnable with a settled team in place , but we're still scrambling about , and it's beginning to look like our transfer activity is too little , too late !

If it was only that simple. The window opens, everyone you want to leave walks away, all the guys you want to sign arrive on day 1 and we starting building the new team every single day of the transfer window with friendlies to help them to gel. until our first competitive match after 4 weeks together as the new team/squad. Sorry but it ain't like that for any team We are now heading into the witching hour . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soctty Posted January 24, 2019 Report Share Posted January 24, 2019 Would rather we had the right players in by 1st February than we rush into deals for the sake of having more players in for two league games in January. If we're still lacking the players we need at the start of next month, I'll panic. Until then I'll keep calm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not that black and white. We obviously have strong targets but they will be loans and we need them agreed by parent clubs. Can see 2 in tom.

It is that black and white , we were told that dear old Gus had been active lining up possible deals pre window. If there are two in tomorrow , then it's exactly what I'm talking about , with the two of them thrown into a massive game on Sunday without having met their team mates. It's desperate !

Problem is you are only looking at the here and now - you need to see a longer term view - the window is not closed, we have also made good signings under Oran when the last one was closed, so patience is the best answer at this point. Fully agree focussed in right now - it don't look good. Give it another 8 weeks and let's see how the new players are playing - once they know each others names . . .
