Bowie plays anywhere across the front 3 but primarily see's himself as a CF, hopefully he will replace Boyle in the starting XI. Hoilett an out and out winger. Cadden a LWB/LW. I can't see the three of them all playing at the same time, right enough. But gives us some much needed depth on the left hand side with Youan likely to be away and Jair Tavares being the only alternative to an 18 year old Molotnikov at present. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't being facetious about it tbf. Cadden and Hoilett are both out and out left hand sided players and every time I've seen Bowie play for the 21s he's been out wide on the left or right though I know he can play through the middle. Nowt wrong with having depth certainly especially like you say as Tavares and Youan look on the way out. Your concern would be that other areas of the team look in far more need of attention. Guess it depends how much more business you do before you can judge it, but I'd be prioritising right back and CM 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joking aside, it does not fit in at all with how we've been working on transfers. All our transfers this summer have been guys we've been tracking for ages and who we've put a lot of hard yards into getting in, chucking £600k at an attacking player just to piss Hibs off does not fit with how we are currently working, especially when we have so many attacking players as it is. It's not pocket change. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think all areas of the team need addressing tbf, perhaps with the exception of right back (which I see you've called out but we have Miller, Cadden, Megwa and Whittaker who can all play there) and striker now we've signed two in the last few days. If Obita was to be injured then we'd have really struggled for options on the left. Hoping central midfield is the next area for some reinforcements. Could probably do with replacing all 3 who started at the weekend! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crawford Bridge Posted August 8 Share Posted August 8 I'm surprised Allan Campbell hasn't already been signed by a team in this division. He would be a sensible signing and exactly what the midfield needs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wee-Bey Posted August 8 Share Posted August 8 Don't think we'll get him, but Allan Campbell has a nice and plain, comforting Scottish name. Like one of yer da's pals at work he's always talking about but you never meet. "Allan Campbell says he'll cover my shift next Friday, he's one of the good guys, you'd like him, he's got a son about your age anaw" 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
