Barrowman signing on Monday!!

Where did you hear this?

Never really been that impressed by him against us but he's got a good track record at this level and I'd be happy to have him on board. It may also help us persuade Cardle to sign as well.

I'd say two CBs are required, though Murray has put a lot of faith in Hill after his last season. It'll be Hill & A.N Other lining up at the back for us next season.

Does this mean you think Jason Thomson is not going to make the team?

He's talking about CB's , Thomson will be at RB with Donaldson at LB

How's everyone reckoning we're going to be lining up next season? Initially I thought it would be a 4-3-3 to accommodate all our centre midfielders but after seeing our signings I think we'll be seeing a 4-4-2/4-4-1-1 with Elliot playing behind Spence.

McGurn

Thomson - New CB - Hill - Donaldson

Anderson - Fox - Moon - New Winger

Elliot

Spence

Not a bad team at all.

Barrowman turned down Dundee to sign for us apparently. He was getting made to wait due to their takeover and we came in before they could seal the deal. Really impressed with Murray's signings.

Heard a wee rumour from the same boy who told me this that Bobby Barr could be in the pipeline for the vacant LM position.

Yep, agree about Murray, he's made some very positive signings this summer. Hopefully this transpires into a good team as I felt with players like McGurn, Thomson, Grant Anderson, Graham and Spence we could've done a wee bit better last season.

He showed signs of learning from mistakes he made - look at the difference between our approach in the Celtic games, for instance, while an exceptionally open 3-2 defeat at Firhill was followed by two 0-0's with Partick which we should've won. Hopefully we can build on this.

Bobby Barr has the ability, or at least he did when he was with Livingston, but it seems to be his attitude that's the problem. Given the defensive responsibilities we seem to place on our wingers I'm not sure this would be the best move for us, but there's no doubt he can be a very good player.

Barrowman wasn't the person I was told who was offered a deal. May be that Murray has offered a few deals out and its a case of the first come first served in terms of signing, glad that he is targetting these sort of players though.

Could you name a couple of your players previous clubs?
