Hank Scorpio Posted July 1, 2014 Author Share Posted July 1, 2014 He certainly held out for something to be added to his contract, thus the delay. I presume he was given it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beachbum Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Cuthbert Thomson McKeown Hill Watson Anderson Moon Scott A.N. Other Elliot Nade Subs: McGurn, Barr, Fox, Stewart, Callachan, Vaughan I'd say another 4/5 signings to take us to 21 in total. I can see Murray using Scott out wide and sticking with Fox and Moon in the centre. Barr is a sub? And you can forget the 4/5 signings. What have you been on tonight? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CALDERON Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 If we sign another 5 players, you can pick a hat and i'll eat it. Well we won't sign 5, but we need to have a bigger squad than last season or our board will look very stupid indeed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wardy Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Barr is a sub? And you can forget the 4/5 signings. What have you been on tonight? I would have put Barr in the starting line up, but that's the team I'd imagine Murray would go with. Maybe 4/5 players is pushing it. 3 more perhaps. He did say the squad should have more depth this season though. As for Anderson, I'm not entirely sure what he wanted, but I doubt it was anything major. It's the Rovers mind. Probably a different number or something... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's maybe had his eye on the number 7 shirt since Cardle left... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostZapper Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 I'd imagine we will add another 1 or 2 signings and potentially another couple of younger guys on loan. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raithie Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Murray did say in the FFP that he was hoping to add another 1 or 2 players (I read it as this was excluding Anderson who he was already hopeful would re-sign). Campbell and Conroy maybe? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McGuigan1978 Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Last season, we started the season with Matthews named as a sub, who appeared to be included purely to make up the numbers, and Ellis, who was probably only to be used in emergencies. Only Spence could have been considered a senior sub, although the rest of the bench, Laidlaw, Callachan, Donaldson and even Vaughan played a fair amount of games. I'd imagine the Board's idea of more depth is to have enough senior players to fill the bench, so 18, maybe 19 at a push. Any more would probably be unnecessary anyway, as long as we've a few players who are comfortable in a couple of positions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beachbum Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 (edited) I'd imagine the Board's idea of more depth is to have enough senior players to fill the bench, so 18, maybe 19 at a push. Any more would probably be unnecessary anyway, as long as we've a few players who are comfortable in a couple of positions. We already have 18 if you include Ellis and the 3 goalies - Cuthbert, Scott, Barr, McKeown, Stewart, Nade, McGurn, Thomson, Watson, Hill, Fox, Moon, Elliot, Anderson, Callachan, Vaughan, Ellis and Laidlaw. We'll sign 2 more at most and if one of them was Conroy that would be fine. Edited July 2, 2014 by Beachbum 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McGuigan1978 Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Aye, that might still leave us tight if we're struck by injuries, but if we could stop getting umpteen red cards every season then we should be hunky-dory. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kev23 Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Buzzing for that. Good draw for us. When they got relegated a lot of people were gutted because they'd miss the games. Although not on the same level as a league game it's good to get a game vs them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shandon Par Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Hope Dougie Hill's tetanus jabs are up-to-date. Josh 'Suarez' Falky has learned a new trick to go along with the diving, moaning and hacking. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
