I think we are pretty sorted for attacking players. I had thought of another forward, but looks like Watt is going to be first choice, and we have Chalmers, Rico and Horn as cover. Unless Hirn or Rico go out on loan, I think that will be enough. Need to look at the defence. A loan of a holding midfielder to cover until Martin returns and cover at right back would be my priorities. I’d like to see Low getting game time as cover in the left.

I think we would give them anything they ask for

Pazikas ?

Trialist is defo a keeper. Luis Cameron is the one to drop off the bench from the Edinburgh game

Have we ever had a player with 2 apostrophes in their name before ? Is Dan feeling a bit miffed that he has been gazumped on the apostrophes

What has happened to the Louis Moult rumour ? I’ve not seen any news of him signing for anyone, but I suspect the rumour linking him with us might have just been agent talking up client

The first law of Jagism ….. never bet on a Thistle win.

Not so sure. If we had Watt and Chalmers and 2 wingers, it would leave an awful lot of work for the remaining 2 midfielders. I’m not sure we have the midfielders to do that.

I know the opposition has not been top quality, but so far I’ve been impressed by Cammy Logan. I think we might have a player there.

Probably because he also wears false glasses and a moustache

Weird badge, but I do quite like the trackie top. Intrigued by what looks like a white top underneath

Never liked a black kit and this does nothing to change my mind on that. The good news is that the Away kit won’t be black.

The lad who moved to Everton, and the one that moved to Rangers who then passed him off down south come to mind

That would have come into play when Livvy sold him to Hearts.

Craig David was played before a game at Firhill.

I’d rather see Low get games when needed rather than another dedicated left back. A striker and a holding midfielder would for me complete the “first team”. We would then need some backup players …. Keeper, versatile defender, versatile midfielder and another forward. Trouble is getting versatile players happy to sit on the bench.

It seems that Wilson is favouring a back 4, which begs the question, what to do with McBeth ? He is too good to be sitting on the bench every week, waiting for Lee or Dan to pick up a knock, so maybe a stand in defensive midfield, until Martin is back might be an option, however that has not worked well in previous setups. Could he play right back ?

Can’t do much more than score from RB on your trial

I expect that Trialist and Trialist will both come off the bench at some point

What are the odds on a new signing at Greaves tomorrow ?

One of the issues with Doolan was that he was set on a fixed formation and everyone knew how we would be set up. Replacements were always like for like. Graham/Wilson allowed more flexibility in formation and in the main brought benefits. I hope that this flexibility will continue under Wilson and opponents won’t know if we are going to back 3 or back 4 and 1 or 2 up front. This means that some of the recruits might need to play in a number of positions. That said, right back/wingback and first choice striker are the glaring gaps currently.

That is revolting. I guess the idea is that opponents won’t want to come near it

Most important info is missing from the announcement …. What name do we put in the #9 shirt ?

I also prefer hoops. At 6’3” stripes makes me look like a big stick of rock. Putting my hopes on the Away kit

But that speculation is much more fun than why BBG left us
