Ranaldo Bairn Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 If you listen to Rays interview post match yesterday at 5:18 he says he wants to bring at LEAST another 1 player which is bloody concerning.I know!3 or 4 and hope for negligible injuries this season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 I still think we will be looking to bring in some loanees. I hope so at least 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranaldo Bairn Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 2 permanently and 4 loans would probably do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AL-FFC Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 If anything this highlights how much the club needs change and sooner rather than a possible 4 months down the line but it also needs some people in the MSG to get realistic on how much money they can get for selling up as i dont think anyone is buying into the line of "its got to be whats in the best interests of the club". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's just me, but I don't get the Dunne situation at all. Been at the club for years, looked reasonably promising in the brief glimpse of him in the first team when Hartley first came in, then vanished just as quickly. I don't watch the reserves, so no idea if he has been featuring there or what his performances have been like, but surely McKinnon saw enough of him day-to-day last season to form some sort of judgement of his ability. If he thought he had something about him, why not offer terms at the end of the season? Seems strange that a player we had under contract for some time is now a trialist. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure Latapy/Edi will put us all right on the inner workings and how they are doing their due diligence. I really dont know how we are going to get rid but how the f**k can the club go for one of the best examples of the running of a club to the shambles where they would struggle to go for a sh*te without making an arse of it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanity check needed. Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 If you listen to Rays interview post match yesterday at 5:18 he says he wants to bring at LEAST another 1 player which is bloody concerning.Imagine there will be loan signings closer to the end of the window 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crawford Baptie Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 Who does everyone think this player is that McKinnon talked about in his post match interview Guessing it's a striker My guess would be Bakhtaoui Imo he'd be a good signing I’d say Louis Longridge. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His stock has fallen a bit since then if that was the case. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McKinnon has obviously tried to turn him into a left back in the reserves but obviously doesn't feel he is worth taking a wage in such a tight budget or he would be signed up. I don't think he featured in any McKinnons squads last season, that gives you the answers with his future and we are likely holding out for a development fee for him 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MetalWolf Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 I did find it odd that Blair Malcolm was still around the club. Fairly sure i saw him going into the stand with gomis etc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really. One more player brings us up to 18, which is round about the number the squad size was intended to be. Eleven starters, five on the bench and hopefully no more than a couple of injuries at any one time. Whether we go much above that may depend on how cheaply we can get loanees, or even free ones who'll come just for the chance to play regular men's football. The problem is that they could get that experience by staying with their parent club and playing in the reserve league. And if you pay peanuts, you get..... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
