Got to agree with GJ

We have seen a lot of players either leave or basically be told they are leaving soon with no-one coming in to replace them and that doesnt feel right .....

We already needed a central defender but with Caff now gone, the need is greater. OK we have McGuire but cover is pretty non existent here unless one of the young lads is going to get chucked in at the deep end.

We were ok in midfield before, maybe even top heavy in that area but reading the papers and setanta today, with doubts over Markus getting a new contract, Rankin gone, Hart possibly going, Wilson going at end of season, and rumblings from Russell we are starting to look deficient here too ... especially if we are going to stick with a 5 man midfield. Hopefully we do make sure Zander comes back from Elgin at end of season though !!!

I think we might be ok up front, again especially if we are sticking to 4-5-1. Marius, Denzil and Bayne can cope and we also have Rory and Deano available. Hopefully the return of Garry Wood at the end of the season will be like getting a new (and confident player).

Rory!!!!  giz a break Scotty, Deano is as good as away, Brew has been trying to sign a new front player, that tells me that he aint got much confidence in Rory making it.

The defence to me is looking a bit threadbare, need decent cover there, midfield as you say is looking like it needs an injection of new blood.

Anyway, maybe Brew / Grassa will surprise us.

thats why there was a comma after Marius, Denzil and Bayne and why I said Deano and Rory were "available" ... didnt say they were the answer, just available !!! Having said that, I dont think Deano has been given the opportunity to show us what he can do in the same way that Rory has and thats a shame as he seems to be decent enough in the reserves (I know - different level etc). If we don't sign a striker, I would hope that Garry Wood might come back as a confident player in the same way as Robson did when he returned from Forfar and that would be as good as a new signing.

Apparently Gretna have released Martin Canning (ex tink), James Grady (Hamilton) and Allan Jenkins (Morton).

They have signed a few 18 year olds on loan to replace them.  Methinks they are resigned to relegation already, they are certainly looking one of the worst SPL teams ever.
