eliphas Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 As a few have said the players are generally there now I'd say across the squad. On the face of it. So fair fucks to the club and the management team for that. However it's now on the management to get the players playing and winning. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fat_tony Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Delighted with Butcher signing. I think he's exactly the type of player we need to give the midfield a bit of dig and let others play. It should allow us to rotate the various options based on opposition/form/fitness. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Londonwell Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 1 hour ago, capt_oats said: 9 out, 9 in. Out: Aarons (loan cancelled), Moult (loan cancelled), Fox, Penney (end of loan), Johansen, Connelly (loan), Speirs (loan), Maguire (loan), Shields (loan) = 9 In: Blaney, Crankshaw (loan), Mandron (immediately injured), Danzaki, Aitchison, Furlong (loan), Obika (loan), Casey, Butcher = 9 Can't really argue that Hammell hasn't been backed like. Tbh, looking at that squad it should be an absolutely fine mid-table team. It's on Hammell and Kerr now. Very much so. Basically everything we’ve been calling for has been covered now in terms of positions. We’ve done much more than I thought we would actually, so fair play on that front. No more excuses for Hammy now, has to turn it around and quickly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our first team squad (including 3 long term injured players plus Morris) comes in at 27 players. Probably fair to call Johnson an incoming as he's straight into the first team/first team squad and will be on the bench at least moving forward. Could perhaps argue the same about Dunachie. Although I think we will see less of him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gawnupby Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Don’t think there will be a ‘well fan disappointed with this. Butcher fills the gap in the squad which was desperately needing filled. Who of Goss or Slattery drop now to accommodate Butcher? Personally I’d drop Goss but reckon it will be Slattery to have some balance in the midfield. If Slattery stays in the team I’m hoping we see him playing without the pressure of trying to protect the back 4. We might just see the Slattery that we seen when he first joined the club. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Handsome_Devil Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 I still think we're in deep bother, the margin for getting out of this is still wafer thin. But at least with these two additions you can see a potential path to safety. Today remains huge though. Less the result but the reaction - another 90 of senior players jogging it in and we need a new manager seeing what we can do with our improved squad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billyg Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Butcher's a marked man , some of his later bookings for United were just because it was him , an easy target for refs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ropy Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 These signings were as slow to happen as our substitutions, if they had come in on Monday they could have impacted two games this week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamMFC Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 There's absolutely zero excuses to be made for Hammell now. The line of it still being Alexanders team can't be used anymore. Continue to lose and we go down then it's absolutely on Hammell (and Kerr). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m trying to put them all in a position on the park and I canny work it out. 4 full backs? Starting O’Donnell after his 45 minutes in Wednesday night is a sackable offence. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allroy for Prez Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Hammell and Kerr deserve their jotters for that starting 11 alone. How can we sign all those players and still play O’Donnell, Spittal and Goss?!?! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SODs should be nowhere near the team. Slattery might be poor of late but I would somehow fit in him in front of Goss. And again no McKinstry who as much as he is up and down was our best player v Killie and Ross County. Not liking that team at all. We have options now but Hamell must have been drinking. I will say it again. Lose today and he should be gone before any more damage can be done. Edited February 4, 2023 by welldaft 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
