This might help. The problem with him is he signed a two year deal last year so a fee would be required assuming he wanted to come to us and they allowed him to leave.

Heard we are looking at goalkeeper Jordan Archer. Apparently being released this summer by Millwall. 

Seen archer twice. Too me he is a bombscare of a keeper. Can make some decent stops but has clangers in him.

 

No thanks for me

So you'd be happy to swap one of the best young defenders in the country for two players nearing the end of their careers who their club want rid of anyway ?

Thank feck you're not involved in our transfer dealings

 

Never said I was happy with it anywhere so don't know where that came from. It was something said to me a few weeks back just after the league split so just posted here what was said. The main point is, Souttar will move on before long, i'd prefer it to be down south rather than that manky mob. As for the transfer dealings comment....it's not what me, you or anyone else thinks, it's what Ann and Craig decide and if they decide they'd want either of them you, me and everyone else has to accept it whether we like it or not.

What about the guy from Motherwell who we always seem to be linked with?

Cant remember his name.

Same I seen him when I was living in London and he was shocking. Jack Hamiltonesque 

 

Zlamal & Doyle both better keepers & neither are good enough

There was an Ayr Utd fan on Twitter a few weeks ago saying that, while he adored Shankland, he didn't think he was good enough to step up to our level. I'd like to see us take a punt on him. 

 

There's some decent talent down in the lower leagues too. The boy Vaughan at Raith Rovers was doing well this past season, although he is a Hibs boy.

Bobby

Souttar Berra Halkett

Smith Haring Bryson Hickey

Walker

Naismith Uche

:glorious:

 

Seriously though, we need to sign players that take the onus off of Naismith. Him not being in the team for the crucial parts of this season highlighted how important he was. We had no one who could even lace his boots. We need to sign players under the assumption Naismith will get injured again next season. He may not, but that chance is reduced even more if we can use him effectively rather than running him into the ground because we have nowt else in the tank. Signings like Walker, Bryson, Boyce etc. could turn the tide there and give us that extra bit of ability to get ourselves up the table.

 

Reckon the rest of the youngsters alongside Hickey (Cochrane, McDonald, Irvine, Smith etc.) should feature more frequently. They've delivered when asked this season and deserve a place in the squad to stake their claim. Saves us a bit of cash too!

Decent shot stopper. Crap at coming for stuff. Undersized, think he's just a shade under 6ft, and I reckon that'd be sorely exposed up here.

Cadden. So far his only offers have been made public are to renew his deal at Motherwell or sign for Doncaster. 

We may well be looking at him as we have tried the last 2 summers to sign him. Suspect he’ll go down south somewhere but the likes of us Aberdeen and Hibs will have had a look

Walker back would be good he’s a good player and a match winner think would see more from him with better players around him....if it was true we tried to get Jordan Rhodes on loan wonder if we will try again he would score for fun....

I may be wrong but hasn't Cadden had injury/fitness issues ? After last season's injury problems maybe it is better we brought players in that were at least fit to start with. I do accept some players can be worth the risk when operating on a budget. However there will be players in the Scottish game that could improve us and Halkett is a good example. IMO.

Didn’t even realise Carroll had been nicked. Was only a matter of time I suppose.

His energy and pace would be useful and he is a good player. I would prefer we had him rather than see him return to fester Rd.

Yeah he has had fitness issues especially the last 2 seasons. He had one good season but has been in and out of the Motherwell team so personally i’d avoid, we can do better.

Spot on, the guy is a good player and would give us the much lacking energy in midfield,  no way I would want him going back to the dark side.

That really might be worth a shot, especially if Rhodes wants another crack at the National team.

Ironic considering Garry can barely string a legible one together.

If Levein is talking about being 4 players from competing with Celtic we surely cant be looking at the likes of Cadden, McGeough, Shankland etc.

I’d take McGeouch in a heartbeat. For all the raving Hibs did about John McGinn, he was always the stand out in the derbies we played.

Carroll most certainly is a Levein player.

 

Likes an injury as well so would fit in.

As would I. Would be worried though this slows down Cochrane’s progress for another season.

We wont be competing with Celtic over the course of a season (though in any game we should be able to). Would take all 3 of these guys!

I think that’s the risk with signing another midfielder to replace Djoum.

Monster when fit. Never fit. He once injured himself opening a Christmas present. Hopefully his wages can go somewhere decent. Will end up back in Newcastle I reckon
