Defenders

[mattman 708]

With hodson doing his hamstring, we are REALLY up against it now regarding defenders, we can moan all day about letting certain players go but what is done is done, surely we will be looking into free agent market.

anybody here you think would do us a job ?

Stelios till the end of the season. I'll be shot down for this but I think he's the best that's realistically available. 

BRING HIM HOME!

Alan huttons available to be fair

 

no offence to Stelios as he was a character but the only way I’d take him back is if he was a mascot 😂

  Aye someone who not played for 6 months will want to play for us     He knockback some team from the north east of England prior to the season starting.

Would need to be someone released at the end of January and who had games under their belt before that imo.

I think he gets a lot more flak than he deserved. He never really let us down, and was also decent at Ross County. We could do a lot worse.

I'm not sure how emergency loan deals work, but Hibs have David Gray, Steven Whittaker, Tom James, & Adam Jackson on the books - all capable of playing RB. Paul McGinn will most likely be their first choice for the rest of the season. 

[munoz 6,935]

Someone who can play a few defensive positions that is match fit. Not much to ask for.

Don’t think emergency loans are a thing in the prem mate

Didn't realise that. Hopefully JG can pull a few strings with his contacts in England, then. 

[Ayrshire Saints 3,963]

Let me be the first. Miles away from the standard required.

What makes you think that?

Excellent performer when we won the Championship.

[linwood buddie 2,948]

If it comes to it then we really need to use the u23s ,if a player isn't good enough to cover a couple of games then you wonder if they will ever be ready. 

[norrie82 1,371]

I knew that the release of the two defenders would be a risk - Kilmarnock and Hibs both stronger now and we look in a bit of trouble. The squad is hugely imbalanced and it’s a big concern

Stelios isn't available. He signed for Bradford Park Avenue in the conference north.

I was in hospitality yesterday and ballsy enough with the drink, asked Goodwin directly whats going to happen and he confirmed we're going to be looking at free agents...he's concerned about lack of game time for them to be up to speed but he said we've been backed into a corner now so needs must. 

[Ethan 884]

Surely we have an under 21 player who could be given the chance to step up.

Doesn't seem to be the case.

An extension of the transfer window speculation and frenzy then. Excellent!

I wonder who will class our targets as "shite" first, even before they've kicked a ball for us.

It was good to see the previously labelled "shite" Alex Jakubiak have an excellent game yesterday, and get his first goal. A fitting GIRUY to his detractors.

He was tremendous yesterday. Despite him saying he is more comfortable facing the goal, I thought a lot of his hold up play and bringing other players into the game was good and his dribbling ability was strong.

On the other hand there's a group who fall over themselves for ANYONE we sign.

Especially when there's a 83 second "You Tube" compilation. 

Funny set are football supporters.

He's out of contract at the end of the season.

Would be good if we asked the question if he'd like to make his stay longer.

[Hambud 3,124]

Johan Larsson.
Out of contract since 1 Jan.
Swedish international
Hes a hybrid of Henrik Larrson and Johan Mjalby both did alright over here so he would too.

Plus he's got a great you tube compilation just to keep FS happy.
