Think Steve Marsella is the one we need to look after. If he goes then there is a fear that we will quickly become Ross County or worse. I calculate that since he arrived as chief scout and goalkeeping coach he has scouted 10 players out of our recent starting 11's. Only Richie Foran was here when he arrived.

Don't fret - I will continue to act in a consultancy role and can take over if necessitated !!

Now reassured, cheers bughtmaster

Or IHE even.

Looks like Devine has signed today, and the likely change in manager clearly didn't put him off.

16 days to go yet

I suspect if we progress to the League Cup Final we may see another signing or two to bolster the squad for the run in. If not, I believe we will have to make do with what we have and hope for not too many injuries or suspensions.

Interesting (and perhaps somewhat encouraging) to hear that this might not be the only new signing in this transfer window according to Butcher in his interview last week.  In all positions, I'd say that there's cover all over the pitch, even with players ready to step up the mark if the likes of McKay et al were to get injured.  The only area I would say that some cover is needed (and this is where the Arsenal link might come in handy) is at left back.  With the loss of Brislen-Hall and the punting of Blackman, you've got to wonder what would happen if Graeme Shinnie at left-back.  Warren can apparently play anywhere across the defence, but I think something would be lost if he wasn't in the centre.  I don't think I'd fancy seeing Raven or Meekings drafted in there.  Simon King may be option as he's left footed but he seems to have disappeared into thin air!

 

All in all, I think a back-up left back is needed.

Question?

 

Is it if and not "when is"  regarding Chris Hogg's return?

King is still recovering from injury.

I'm aware of that aye.  He's been out for months though, which is strange cause they thought he'd only be out for a few weeks at the time!
