David Clarkson is still looking for a club
-
Watt was probably a non-starter as bigger clubs than us would be after him. What about the Bosnian lad Atajic who Celtic sent on loan to Shrewsbury last season. If we are after a loan striker would he be worth a punt ?

Eel do well once he gets the hang of it.

Just thank whatever god you believe in that you don't support Cultural Leonessa

To a certain extent I think that both sides are right. I'm sure that Archie would agree that he would have liked a couple more names in place by now, but equally it is hardly doom and gloom as our competators have hardly set the heather alight with their additions. I can't honestly think of one player signed by our immediate competition where I'd have though "wish we'd got him". Looking the other way I'm sure many will think theid missed out on Stevenson.
As for ATS, there is not exactly a plethora os left sided attacking full backs. Who exactly are the targets that we have missed out on and being linked with a world cup playershows the standard we are looking at.
So my conclusion is that yes we are behind schedule, but there is time to play with and there are plenty of fish in the sea still to be hooked (That was not an attempt at a pun). Lets see what happens before the window closes before the doom and gloom is brought out.

It’s time for Archie to kick on now and bring in the striker and few defensive players we need to strengthen the squad, but Osman and Stevenson are an encouraging start to proceedings.
It looks to me as if Archie is biding his time to weigh up options. We have the Honduran lad who's name escapes me and Mustoe as possible left backs. Maybe both as The Honduran can also play central defense. There is also Barr. Bring these 3 in and the defense is looking pretty tidy, and even then, something better might come along. I know things don't always work out as planned, but the impression is that Archie is going for quality, not quantity and if that takes a bit of patience, I'd still rather that than pounce on the first journeyman who comes available.

Can he play left back, centre back or centre forward is all I want to know? No. Oh well then.
Yes, but not as well as some we are going to sign soon !
I'd rather have pathetic puns than constant bickering.

Welcome to Firhill Abdul

I suppose for a defender, he isnae too bad
-
I expect he will have spoken to Izaguerri and will know what he is letting himself in for. As said, he needs first team football and he knows someone in the town.

I know Honduras isn't the biggest or best footballing nation in the world,
They have qualified for the last 2 world cups which is a damn site better than a nation closer to home.

We could't have black shorts as we have black shorts for the home kit. Socks and shorts must be a different colour from the first choice.

It's a cracker.

Big french lad .... striker ..... capped by Togo ..... Emmanuel Adeybayor

Magnay is interesting. Either Archie thought him to be not good enough and has let him go rather than make a panic purchase, which suggests that all is well and there are plans in the pipeline
or
Grimsby offered him a better deal and we have lost a key target and we are doomed !
My money is on the former.
-
And yet County suppprters seem more forgiving and patient compared with ours. I wonder why that's the case.
Are you suggesting that we sign up some sheep to put on the land between the ground and the canal ?
-
Aye, that's what I'm trying to say, FIFA consider it to be the same team playing under a different name, hence the team has won 4 world cups.
Struggling to think of an analogy in club football where a new club has taken over the history of a defunct one. Must be one somewhere, but I just can't for the life of me figure it out.

Call me a sad old pedant but .....
.... Why do all of the media call this Germany's 4th World Cup victory ? It is their first. 1954, 1974 and 1990 were all won by West Germany
I wish they would get it right as it pisses me off.

Gabby going on loan is intreguing. Like others have said it suggests that there are some deals that are close. Not sure that Cregg would be considered a central defender, so Magnay and one other perhaps.

Mustoe has had loans to Barnet, Morecambe, Carlisle, Bury, Wycombe amd Morecambe again, so he has experience at a reasonable level. I'll see if I can find out more as I know a few Wigan supporters.

We were a long way behind 6th last season and recovering that gap in 1 season may be too much. I would settle for 10th or better but closer to 6th than last season.
