Good to see us get everything sorted early doors. As usual I’m sure he’ll say on the 11th he’s happy with his squad but going from past experience that won’t rule the odd signing around about the transfer window close and the inevitable couple of loan signings. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was assuming that we'd have in Keatings for one of Duku/Ugwu and the other berth free, based on how we started last season. Naturally there is a gap with where we ended given Gullan and Abraham have also departed, having given differing levels of contribution. The cards are certainly being held closely to the chest.

TxRover Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 1 hour ago, Michael W said: A big week ahead, then! Looking for a left back, a winger, a striker at probably at least 1 CM as well. That's not taking into account gaps created elsewhere by departures. LB, yes…sign Spencer, need one CM, we don’t and we need two…one winger, yes, but needs to play right side…striker, IDK. We have Keatings, Vaughan and Mahady at CF, and we tended to use just one. Mahady is too young/inexperienced unless JMcG has another one like Bowie in him, so I suspect we’ll be fishing in an unexpected/inexpensive pool for one more CF. We, unfortunately, need cover for Vaughan, just in case, but don’t want to splash out too much, so an inexpensive veteran forward who plays right wing too would be appealing as well. An alternate choice would be a player who looked promising and then failed to step forward, like Anton Dowds. He looked promising at East Fife, but failed to break through at a Falkirk last year…big motor (and body), more of a second striker/linking forward type who would benefit from JMcG’s tutelage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, Anton Dowds is basically a worse version of Declan McManus. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R.R.FC Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 I’m still holding out some slim hope for Innes Cameron. I know he’s under contract for next season and I have no idea what role Killie see him playing. However, if he’s only a back up option for them, a swap deal with Kieran MacDonald might work for both sides. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought he was already under contract but if he’s just signed a new deal he’ll have no intention of going, nor Killie letting him.

Michael W Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 I was not sad that Dowds went to Falkirk when we were rumoured to be in for him. His record at Falkirk pretty much bears that out as well. We need better players for level. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't mind picking up players from Airdrie or Montrose, but we should be avoiding dross from clubs in the middle of League One. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pub car king Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 So we are sorted for Goalkeepers. Defenders apart from a lb but Musonda can cover although it's a bit of a waste. Midfielders we are waiting on hendry and spencer to sign. This is such a key position I hope we have something lined up as hendry is a long shot but I do think spencer will sign on again. This is where we will have to spend money. Wingers we have added Zanatta but lost Armstrong. This is prime for a loan signing. Forwards really need one more here but I think again McGlynn will opt for a loan signing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dunno, I can't see us running with no recognised left back, replacing or keeping two centre mids, then only adding two loan signings near the end of the window. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
