Did people react like this when we signed Christie? I genuinely can’t remember 

Christie was a proven SPFL player. Montgomery isnt. What hurt most with Christie though was him returning to Celtic to score the winner against us in a League Cup Final.

My main beef with this signing is it's blocking a pathway to our own youngster Jack MacKenzie.

I will support Montgomery in a red shirt but the fact he won't be allowed to play next Wednesday at Pittodrie just shows how ridiculous loaning a player from the same division is.

It’s just been a very poorly managed window again. Much improvement needed. 

Overall its been an indifferent transfer window but not terrible. A few positives.

We have offloaded Samuels, Gurr, McGinn and Longstaff. We signed a 20 year old dutch winger and an American youngster (our first real look at the new recruitment teams signings) with a great deal of potential. Adam Montgomery is only a temporary solution until we can find a decent left back in the summer.

This season is meaningless for us. We aren't going to win the Scottish cup however we can still hope to finish fourth. Traditionally the January transfer window is difficult to operate in. The real recruitment drive will be in the summer and I like Richard Gordon suggested, we will have a totally different looking side come the start of next season.

Well that is a fucking bad window

We have one, fit, senior Striker at the club 

Difficult to say only loss is hedges. Year ago everyone was thinking it was fantastic when it was a disaster. I like what Joe Lewis had to say about Vicente Besuijen with today press conference.

He didn't really say anything interesting at all?

What is Steven Gunn's role in all of this? Maybe I just haven't been paying attention, but I would have expected a new "Director of Football" with responsibilities actually matching up to that title to have perhaps been a bit more high profile in the last month.

Wondered myself and mentioned him to several people today.

Apart from he looked sharp in training, very strong, agile and looks really good on the ball. 

They used to say Darren Mackie looked sharp in training. I'll wait and see what he does on the pitch. 

 

Potentially a pretty poor window and the "Breathe!" tweet looks very silly

Thought this also - this is the first proper crack at a transfer window with the new recruitment structure, while I appreciate it’s more complexed and nuanced than that Football Manager, but come on to f**k…
