Renewed my season ticket last week and it dropped through the door this morning. Handwritten envelope, no fixture list or anything included. Just a blank compliments slip and the actual card. Also paid a pound for postage and it was sent with a 2nd class stamp. Like I say, not going to cry about it but standards. I'm not crying, you're crying. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdiBairn Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 (edited) Glad to see a winger come in as I think that's one of the things we were lacking. I'd still like to see a right back and a striker(preferably not Nelson unless we're bringing in 2) come in. I think that might need to wait until Harris, McKee and Shepherd leave though. I'd add O'Hara to the list and we're then looking at having probably over £2k a week to spend on those 2.

Harry Kinnear Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 We'd have about a grand and a half for getting shot of Harris and McKee. And 10 bob for getting shot of Sheps. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NavyBlueArmy1876 Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 If we bring in Nelson I'd be delighted with that. Re McKee, for me a good player but something like 14 starts in 18 months here is horrendous. If we can replace him with someone who isn't constantly in the treatment room it gives us another option 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Kinnear Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 If we bring in Nelson and a right back I would be happy, for now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BairnNecessity Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 I like the fact the Don has also noticed we needed a left winger. As mentioned a right back, another striker and i’ll be happy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be interesting to see what else happens. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senor Bairn Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 I actually wouldn't be too concerned going in with McGhee at right back. Definitely need another striker though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's been said a few times on the facebook pages too. A proven, experienced goalscorer is not going to come to play in the Scottish Championship as he'll have better offers elsewhere. Or do you have anyone specific in mind that would come, we could afford, and that we should be going for instead of Nelson? 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyBlueArmy1876 Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 A back four of Robson - Dallison - McGhee & Muirhead (with either of the latter two at RB) would be fine imo. Hopefully the Don still prioritising a striker 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he might be thinking of a ginger God with extensive experience of playing in Edinburgh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct. I believe that Hartley's going to nip down to the proven, experienced goalscorer shop in the morning to get one! Can't see a RB coming in now, looks like he's going to play 442 as we've 2 wingers on the books now so I think he'll go with McGhee at RB. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People like Stephen Dobbie, Nicky Clark and James Keatings will all be on more than we'd normally pay, but I think someone like that is what's required to win the championship. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sgt Bilko Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Surely Nelson would be a good fit having played with the other Sunderland boys before. Boy was just getting to grips with league before some scumbag across the water ended his season. Signing a winger defiantly adds some some structure to the squad. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
