    If you Know, as you claim, then it shouldn't be too hard to name a player that's incoming nrfore they have joined the club.? If you know
    The back pedalling was pretty obvious from Uncle Tony....A definite change in the record.

    Yep flexibility n adaptability is key, theyll never stray to far away from the model, and i think most of us will be happy with that but agree that there needs to be flexibility

    I found when i started coaching n scouting i lacked any flexibility, i had my idea on how to coach or scout a player n that was it. If i stuck to that thought process i wouldnt have got anywhere.

    You learn as you go along and im sure (hoping) that speakman n co are doing the same

    Mistakes will always happen, as long as we learn from them. I get folk saying we havent learned from them by not signing a striker yet (an experienced one as folk have asked for) but i know its not as simple as that. The transfer market for all teams, except the big teams plus saudi sides, have been so tough. My team finally signed a LB this week after being in discussion with him n his club since April!!

    If its a loan signing we get then thats fine, as long as no stupid recall option in January, as long as its the right player that improves us

    Im at the game on Saturday so still buzzing to see the lads play, always a good sign when you still have that buzz

    I might be wrong but I think there's a large number of fans that ignore all this blx and just turn up to support the lads out on the field

    I don’t agree on this. I think the right striker moves to the right place and makes the option clear. I’d say that’s exactly the reason we didn’t make those chances pay.

    Surely we sign a striker that's maybe not our ideal, but hard working decent character rather than waiting for perfection?

    Mowbray also said “I only see positive things moving forward where Ross Stewart will be back in four or five weeks, and I'll be sat here complaining we've got too many strikers.“

    He seems more positive than the fanbase

    Bad news for the whingers ...

    ... the good news is they'll claim he's too old/young, too short, not match fit, not experienced enough in this league, would be going to the PL if he was any good, is injury prone, once had a minor disagreement with a current player, hasn't had his tonsils out, etc etc etc.

    Sorted.

    Not transfer related so apologies for blocking up the thread, but I don’t get to go to games anywhere near as often as I’d like these days, I’m there this week, a rare day out with my dad, few drinks and getting behind whatever 11 we put out is what it’s all about, let’s just support those that are here and not worry about who may or may not be coming in, focus on what we can control, good atmosphere still a very good team here, 3 point’s Saturday and this place will be buzzing again just like the bulk of last season

    Can I just say that once again the local journos have taken Mowbrays words and span them into a negative and it’s lead the fanbase to go into meltdown, when really he was actually very positive about the recruitment. ****ers
