Say Lafferty picks up a booking in the cup semi and misses the final. What are our options? A 17 year old who's never scored and that's it. It's easy to say we don't need another striker after a comfortable win, but I think it'd be short-sighted not to sign one. There are still some decent options out there who'll do a job for 6 months. I suspect Levein probably thinks the same. Well put Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BackOfTheNet Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Only way to establish if someone is ITK (if that person is even so inclined) is for them to state when they expect the announcement. I mean, I can say it’s going to be on Wednesday we see a scarf over a head, but that’s me picking the middle day out of 5. But if someone is indeed ITK and don’t want to scupper any deal they’re going to be quiet on names, but they don’t have to be quiet on timelines. I suppose we’ll only know for sure if they are either Paraguayan, Iraqi or have at least played in those countries. For me personally I’m not bothered by a name, I would just like to know when we’ll have someone in the door. If what Levein says is right we could have someone by the game this weekend. I just hope it’s sooner rather than later so they can get a few training sessions in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tcjambo Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Are Keena and Zanatta cup tied or did we recall the latter to make sure he wasn't and only allowed Keena to go on loan after QP were out of the SC? If this is the case we are maybe happy to leave them where they knowing we can recall as and when needed. Raith and QP's season could be over in early May Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's from Mauritania rather than Mauritius but would need a work permit either way and not sure how likely that is given he's played very few games for a poor performing African nation (can't remember them ever getting close to African Cup qualification) , that also has very few political ties with the Western world.

Lord Beni of Gorgie Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 I'm quite cool on this one. I am sure we will not rush into anything for the sake of it. Its not going to be a player the level of Naismith or Lafferty. Going to be a man to come off the bench I suspect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan_R Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 I'd love us to go for Souleymane Coulibaly , exactly type of player we need. Mobile/powerful. He was in Egypt but he's left club after weird rumours about them withholding his passport and wages etc Probably alot of red tape there but he left Kilmarnock for 1mil so if we were to sort out all that nonsense and land him free would be worthwhile Just wishful thinking on my part, no idea if that makes him officially a free agent or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said at that time he was talking to two strikers, one UK based and the other overseas. He then added that he didn't expect anything to be done before the SC tie versus St Johnstone, and it wasn't but was confident something could be done this week.
