garydavidson Posted January 26, 2024 Report Share Posted January 26, 2024 Interesting to note that Kyle Turner has gone on loan from County to Raith. Not quite worked out for him so far. MySpazz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least the name is short enough to get the first initial on the strip. Commentators nightmare but not as bad as all those foreign names they have to struggle with .

blueheaven Posted January 27, 2024 Report Share Posted January 27, 2024 This signing feels like a pretty big nail in Cammy MacPherson's coffin to me. Anyone have an up-to-date list of when all our contracts expire? Feels like the squad's getting a bit bloated again but I guess we have quite a lot of players coming to the ends of their deals in the summer so the number of players will be getting trimmed quite a bit come the end of the season.

Isn’t MacPherson injured long-term and his contract expires in the summer? I think he’d be out if he wasn’t injured. I imagine Brown will leave imminently, which is why we’re starting to look towards a striker. Please be Melamed, please be Melamed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But until he got injured Levein was speaking pretty highly of him so I think there was an opportunity there for him to play his way into a new deal.

Players need to either up their game to win new deals, or we replace them. Suspect for many of them it'll be the latter option, and we'll have (another) rebuild on our hands. I get the impression Levein has perhaps been told he can sign players in this window to keep us up as long as he makes cuts in the summer, hence the new arrivals despite the lack of outgoings. Big change from previous windows where Tommy Wright was often told he couldn't sign anyone, and ended up scrabbling around for signings at the last minute. Looking at those who are out of contract, I'd probably offer Ryan McGowan another year and I'd like Drey Wright to stay if he can get back to fitness. Seems Phillips has already decided on his future but I'd have a contract on the table for him too. Carey and Gordon I'm a bit on the fence with. Youngsters aside, I'd probably say the rest can go. pezza70 and PSJ.84 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Opposition teams must love the fact we don’t play with width so it makes defending our long balls or our one man up front playing facing backwards instead of running into a bit of space such an easy way to defend.
