Halkett going down with no-one near him and Smith too. Another winger and CB wouldn't hurt 🤞 I’m not going to say no, and I too want more signings, but I wouldn’t settle for panicked signings in reaction Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ideally he comes in for Kinglsey who goes to LWB and Moore comes in for Souttar (unless we do sell ofc) Being lazy and can’t trawl back thru, but which braithwaite lad? Missed this.

Pingu Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 Sign a centre back now. Don't mind if it's a long or short term deal at this stage. We just need someone in. Extend Haring's contract. Can't understand why we're dragging our feet there. He clearly has a role to play. I'm sure we also have big plans for the summer. We have four loanees to replace (or extend), and we need upgrades for Halliday, GMS and possibly Gino. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely 👍🏻 I have long hair and a beard and frequently get comments from badly dah's about haircuts, shaves, even a wash once. Was taken aback by that last one because I actually put a decent amount of effort into looking after my hair and beard, but these dah's are just no right.

BackOfTheNet Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 (edited) Ginnelly will have games where he plays well, and games where he doesn’t. Just like any old fashioned winger. (Look at McKay’s performance last night) But he’s more than capable of putting teams like St. Johnstone to the sword, so is good enough for our league. Just maybe needs to be an impact sub for the bigger games rather than the relied upon starter. His greatest benefit is pace, this it utilised far better against tired defences. No one was talking about punting him after the last few games, only now after last night when our tactical approach was ‘let Celtic have the ball and break on the counter attack (whoops, I forgot they might score with 5 seconds to decide what to do on the ball)’. I wouldn’t be punting him yet. Edited January 27, 2022 by BackOfTheNet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
