I’m ok with that. 

Yeah. I think we've had the best window of the teams I'd expect to be in and around us (Hibs, Hearts and St Johnstone). Hibs have kept their players which is the boost for them but they didn't finish too far ahead of us when we were pish poor for a large chunk of the season.

Surely Kennedy will be going somewhere?

…….can imagine any kind of semi-decent offer to pick up some of his wage and the club wouldn’t be hard to deal with.

He’ll probably be good at a club with little pressure.

We have a lot of midfielders who do similar sort of jobs - when we've had similar situations in the past we've done a lot of shoehorning/chopping and changing to the detriment of the team.

Hopefully Glass is a bit more canny.

Well his team selection against Ross County suggests not.

4 centre mids in midfield.

2 too many at home to them.

Happy with that squad, but from a financial perspective I’m surprised that we haven’t moved at least a couple of players out, so I presume that nobody wanted them. Stephen Glass May have a problem in keeping everyone happy, because there are going to be a number of “bigger” players not playing, or even in the squad every week.

As we are out of Europe and the League Cup it's 18 men squads and only 3 subs from here on in.

Senior squad is 26
 

Lewis, Woods (2)

Ramsay, Gurr (2)

Bates, Gallagher, McCrorie, Devlin, Considine (5)

Mackenzie, Hayes (2)

Brown, Ferguson, Campbell, Ojo, McGeouch, Jenks, Longstaff (7)

McLennan, Kennedy, Hedges, McGinn, Watkins (5)

Ramirez, JET, Samuels (3)

Not including Ruth, Ngwenya and Hancock etc.

So you've got 6 of them not stripped every week and 12 of them not playing every week.

Should be well covered to absorb 3-4 injuries every game.

Even happier. No idea what Hibs were doing trying to get a swap deal involving three players done so late in the day.

Good to see us do our transfer business way before the deadline especially after the shambles in January. Lets hope the new signings will make us stronger as a team. Good not to lose Ferguson which Brown should be a mentor to him and also excellent that Hedges is staying also.

He only became "available" an hour before the deadline (English window closed) so it was always a bit of a hail mary effort. Getting 2 clubs and 3 players to agree in that time was difficult enough, but sadly not enough time for the paperwork.

Cest la vie.

Did your chairman not say back in January that your club was bleeding cash badly and players would have to be sold? If so how come nobody has left and still there was cash to try and sign McGrath?

Surely you didn't just chuck a bid in with an hour to go?

Something to note. Ethan Ross' agent has made a c**t of it.

He'd definitely fit in with the way we're trying to play.

He's still not got a club eh?

Hopefully a good example to the other youngsters (of what not to do).
