We have Fenton as cover and Otoo can play there as well, think Moffat will be more likely to be in competition with McCann/O'Halloran for those wide attacking areas instead. Still think we'll look to bring in a main striker whether that's Jakubiak/Mumbongo or someone else 

Otoo at a push yeah but Miller Fenton isn't ready to play at this level IMO.

It's probably one of those things where McPake won't view that position as much of a concern given Edwards is very rarely injured and never struggles to play the full game.

Fenton may not be ready for the full gig but at a pinch I think he looks like he'd do okay with some support. More likely Otoo would just be shifted there or a tweak in formation. But you never know, we may bring in a loan player to cover there as well.

Thought when we have used Fenton the last few times he's looked very comfortable tbh. 
Granted, it's a step up and there's no guarantee he's ready, but not necessarily seen anything to the contrary either.

Fair enough - they might know better than me. I’ve never seen him play.

Scott Burns reporting this too, he’s usually a reliable source.

Was once said to be the new Jimmy Johnson at Celtic don't think he's an out and out striker.

Otoo is definitely the cover for Edwards.  It doesn't much weaken the team as he can still get forward and Hamilton would slot in to the middle.  Fenton would be 3rd option if there was an injury crisis.  

At RWB, it's Comrie or KRH - same as the end of last season.  Sam Fisher is the 3rd option.

In short, for a Scottish Championship side, we're pretty well covered.

If Moffat signs, the main benefit (aside from adding a good player to a thin squad) is that it likely gives us more options re the formation we play - especially now that KRH is back.
