ETA won’t be surprised if he goes late on for a nominal fee or if that doesn’t happen he becomes a free agent after the window.

Szamo's_Ammo Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 (edited) Thank you so much Partick Thistle xxx Farewell words too often part, And cleave, with sorrow, aching hearts With final wave all disappears Beneath the hush of silent tears Why can't sorrow be so kind, As to hide away and stay confined? And leave us only thoughts of bliss, Of joyful things to reminisce Edited August 31, 2018 by Szamo's_Ammo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banana Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 I'm hearing Hamilton had to pay a fee as they refused to release a keen Dougie Imrie as a makeweight for Keatings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrantB878 Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Poor, very poor finish to the transfer window for us. Desperately needed another creative player. But Caulker is free should we need another CB! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stumigoo Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 The squad is maybe one short but to be honest there is enough here to make a go of things. I like Glass and he has potential but I still think we would have benefitted from another, more experienced attacking midfielder to add depth. If we end up signing one of the two trialists we had this week it looks like they are both central midfielders so that might be what we end up with. Loosely you are looking at a 1st team squad (from Csaba's point of view) - GKs - Rakovan, Siegrist (assuming Mehmet is away in January) Defenders - Murdoch, Edge, Frans, Robson, Booth, Watson, Wardrop, Bouhenna Defensive Midfielders - Fyvie, Rabitsch, Barton, Stanton (although Laszlo still likes using him further forward) Attacking Midfielders - Loemba, King, Aird, Glass, McMullan Strikers - Curran, Clark, Safranko, Smith Players like Smith, Stanton, Loemba etc can obviously play in a few positions and I am wondering if McMullan not being shipped out means Laszlo is willing to give him a second chance. You would think that if we really wanted to move him on we would have. From what I have been told Edge is still here partly because he buys into Laszlo's philosophy in terms of training etc and is a good pro to have in the squad (but clearly he is down the pecking order in terms of first team action). I like the 3-5-2 and I know Laszlo has talked about the team being able to play 2-3 systems so you would expect to see 3-5-2, 4-4-2 and 4-2-3-1 over the course of the season (or as long as Laszlo is here). I think there are just about enough options to have a strong side regardless of formation (injuries and suspensions aside). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Granny Danger Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 There may be a few free agents come available now the window is closed but I don’t see too many glaring omissions in terms of cover. We may need flexibility to bring in players at the later window depending upon what transpires. I am reasonably happy with the squad and pleasantly surprised at the number, and apparent quality, given the likely financial constraints. Once the injured players are fit we should have a decent starting XI and bench. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny Danger Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 If we have loaned Scobbie to Thistle does this mean he can’t play against us? I certainly hope it doesn’t. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also now fairly content if we hold back a little bit of whatever budget is left so that we can, if needed, add one or two in January instead of using every last penny on just the summer transfer window. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sometimes dream of days of old When all they had were stories told Before Google and texts and calls We did not post our rise and falls I do wonder if Scobbie knew Of Kipling, Yeats and John Keats too Before he took the time to search And took his place upon his perch Alloa bound. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
