I mean, imagine a forward line of Victoria, Anderson and Vaughan, and that was it. We'd be wrapping Vaughan's knees in adamantium.

Chairman said they hoped to have 4 strikers to replace Nisbets goals. 

No need to panic, yet.

Not panic, but you know there is enough wiggle room in interpretation to suggest that the above would be 3 out of his 4 strikers, for example.

We already have 2 strikers signed up and that's not including Vaughan or Nisbet.

It really depends what system mcglynn wants to play next season. He went with 361 essentially in the playoffs so there's reason to think that's how we will shape up next season. Hendry and macdonald signing suggest this could happen but if what airdrie fans say about vitoria when Murray came in are true (and we do sign him) then that's baffling.

IMO Vitoria and Anderson are not strikers. They are wingers. Do to buy these players to make up for the goals of Nisbet we would be playing 4 up front.

Good to see that we're holding out rather than giving the players a pat on the head and sending them on their merry way for f**k all. 


Wait till he tells them he has always supported the Pars.

Anderson is likely to be first to be announced and is likely to be tonight.

Really strange one this.His form tailed off big time last season for Stranraer and was even dropped at one point,looking like his best days were behind him,don't think many Stranraer fans will be fussed he's left.

Agree don't think this is the type of signing we should be looking at. Never been one that likes to go back to former players.

What type of signing should we be looking at?

If John believes it to be the right signing I'm fully behind him until it is proved otherwise. It isn't about 1 player it's about the team. We don't know I'f Anderson brings a good vibe to the dressing room. 

Exactly this. 

Arbroath were hardly a side of standout names. Who would have had Bobby Linn for player of the year at the start of the season? Sometimes a team can be greater than the sum of its parts.

Maybe that's what we're going for this season...:(
