His work rate and selfless running off the ball are a joy to watch. Knows exactly where the goal is but more importantly he's playing with freedom and enjoying his football. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smellthepaw Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 We are top of the league on merit. We have spent more wisely with our wage budget than the other trailing teams and I wouldn't be surprised if we are actually 3rd or 4th highest wage budget in the league, just down to how shrewd we have been with our signings. A lot of opposition fans claimed we bought our way to survival last season. We actually shipped out players into double figure and replaced them with around the same amount. That is a massive risk trying to build a winning formula, especially half way through the season. JR and JF worked absolute wonders and we have carried that momentum into this season. I don't think we have quite replaced Mallan yet, though Morgan has made up for his loss as the star man with his consistent displays of magic. We are now at another January window and the club are doing there best to move on players surplus to requirements to free space for players with Premiership quality. I am excited to see if we bring someone in close to transfer deadline day. I am hearing from a few sources including on here that an attacking player with top level experience is a target. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd assume it would have to be quite imminent as well given the window closes on Wednesday... How could you forget Stephen McGinn ? It a hard tackling ball holder midfielder we are needing I'm a huge Ross fan but it puzzles me he can't see it. Look at all our heavy defeats and when we get pinned back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea McGinn should not be mentiond I was only thinking attacking midfield player. Personally it's a strong defending midfielder that's needed going forward is not a problem our goals for prove that but we have a habit of being pinned back Josh in the middile might be the answer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Hill is the defensive midfielder, and will be used when required I'm sure. I agree we need a more experienced and accomplished player in that position if we go up, but he's what we have right now. A different option up front is what we will no doubt be going for now... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Div Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 I feel quite uncomfortable with all and sundry saying we’ve won the league already. I reckon 72 points will be enough to win it. Still a long way to go! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cautiously optimistic as nothing is won in January. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shandon Par Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 The way everyone from 2nd-8th will take points off each other gives you the chance to wrap it up ridiculously early. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
