Wighton is a laugh Naismith now seems to be a midfielder at the end of his career Roberts is not a striker It's pretty much all down to Boyce now and he didn't want the #9 jersey. Do you doubt Boyces credentials based on wanting the 10 jersey? The boy will score for fun against the jokers in this division, he's managed over 20 goals in two separate seasons at the level above. Plus the injury prone thing is a complete myth. Naismith, Walker, Lee, Haring and Halkett all have previous of scoring at least a handful of goals at a higher level than this one and I'd expect others to chip in with a couple. We'll be more than alright, an extra player would be no skin off my nose but it's hardly going to be the difference maker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greedy Jambo Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 It's not like we've moved on, All we've done is bring Robbie Neilson back and signed another load of players, but no striker.

I'm quite happy with this window - Halliday, Roberts, Frear, Gordon, Petresucue, Ginnelly and Kingsley, plus a manager who knows what he's doing. Are you saying you're not? We're simply not going to be signing multiple players for every position just in case our first picks get injured in this of all seasons!

Deevers Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 Simple question - does anyone really think that we will Waltz through this league if that’s the sort of side we put out?

Not suggesting we sign zeefuik, but that is the type of player is exactly what we need, the sow / zeefuik combo was perfect for this league..

That logic of we only beat Cowden and ICT 1-0 so we'd get relegated is ridiculous beyond belief. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
