Guest Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 (edited) Other than a loan or two, what we have now is the horse we are going to be running until at least January. As ever, it’s going to be interesting. Hopefully that defence and midfield have enough about them to provide some sort of service to what is going to be a very different front line (different good or different bad we don’t yet know).

I've no complaints with the defensive recruitment undertaken by McGlynn this summer, just nowhere near as convinced by the attacking options brought in. I'd also be amazed if has not had, or will not be having very shortly, some frank conversations with quite a few of last season's lot and advising them that their careers would be better served under a new employer. Finding one is going to be the hard bit unfortunately, probably impossible in quite a few cases. I am still confident McGlynn will be able to get shot of some of the dross.

Let’s wait and see how things turnout. Clearly looks to me that a few could have the choice of sitting on the bench, sitting in the stand or taking their leave of the place completely Expand please 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The size of squad he says he wants to work with and the numbers he has at the moment. His selections to date indicate who he favours and who he doesn’t. The new players he’s brought in, the positions they will be playing send a message. The way he restructured RR having spoken to a colleague at work who is a RR fan. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Syd Puddefoot Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 That's 11 signings and with a bit of shuffling, a brand new starting 11. The cliche that we can't keep changing the team every season doesn't hold as after the disaster of the last few( especially last)years, we simply had to do it again, albeit with the right man at the helm. Who knows what the season holds but on evidence so far McGlynn will have us challenging which is a welcome change. We have our deficiencies yes, but others clubs have too and I dont see anything we should be scared of. I'd much rather have McGlynn than McPake, Gibson or McCabe. That gives us hope, something we've not had for a while. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kircer bairn Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 I personally would go for same back 5 with McGinn & Yeats holding in midfield & Ola the offensive option in middle of park followed by a front 3 of Oliver, Burrell Alegris 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
