Muirton Saint Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 4 hours ago, Dick Van Dyke said: What’s peoples opinion then? Is the squad stronger that it was at the start of the window? Could still do with some width, but we got some deadwood out and hopefully get more out this month. I imagine they'll be looking at McClelland going to the championship for game time, as well as shipping Stevie, Ballantyne and Crawford out on loan. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theyellowbox Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 3 hours ago, tree house tam said: Turner Cooke and Costelloe out with Adama and Kimpioka in in forward areas looks at least the same, probably better for us as they're our players. Smith as an attacking midfielder looks okay and Keltjens is a definite upgrade on what we had. Kerr Smith is a decent player but I struggle to see when he gets a game if no one is injured. Levien says no but you can't help think he was a replacement for Robinson. Good point about them being our players. I don't think they are downgrades in anyway on the loan players, but we get the benefit that if they come good, we either get them for longer and/or we get a fee. Phillips is the example we should be selling to some of these guys. Young age, but career stalled a bit. A good run in the team and he looks like he is moving upwards in his career. What is good, is that none of these signings are older and expensive 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Posted February 2 Author Share Posted February 2 (edited) Think I'd have been much happier if we'd signed a wing back but we are where we are. Biggest disappointment is the amount of dead wood still at the club. At the start of the window you could just about put together a dead wood 11 and a lot of that is still there, arguably one or two others added given the current state of the squad. Deadwood 11: Richards (I know that's harsh as he's here as a back up, but I need a goalie) Brown Olunfunwa Booth Gallagher Costelloe Ballantyne McPherson Crawford Turner-Cooke Jephcott laughably bad. edit: there's others you could have on the bench too.

PauloPerth Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 That is abysmal. Out of those left, is every single one of them out of contract in the summer? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamie_B Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 I would have liked a wing back but has there been any update on the likely return of Drey Wright? I'd like to think he's close if we've not signed anyone. We desperately miss him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy. Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 Fucked my eye up last week but sounds like ive still gone through less suffering than those who've seen recent matches. Little to say about things, as little ive seen, but something about Sidibeh just feels right to me, so im feeling positive about that one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s bound to be some cheap comment available about a Saints fan suffering an eye bleeding injury… but I hope no one sinks that low. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whiteside Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 Interested to see how Adama Sidibeh gets on,a massive step up from Northern premier league, even more remarkable that last season he was further down the pyramid in nw counties but seen him play a couple of times this season, big fast and direct with a massive leap. Make no mistake the northern premier is a tough division and would say followers of the league will watch his progress with interest 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
