I'd say Zlamal aswell but Stewart is only here until January and who knows what happens after that with Doyle coming back. Bit light at centre back but it's time for Hamilton to step up. If not Smith can easily step in, or Haring. Ability to play a few positions will be key if we're loaning out a lot of youngsters. Stewart is only with us because Stone has an op this month. When he is fit he will be number 2 to Gordon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pasquale for King Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 I don’t doubt Halliday would do a job for us in the Championship, but he wants to move to the US and has stated he can’t see himself playing for another Scottish Club. Would he want to is the real question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
