Oliver links the play with the wingers so much better IMO. I would agree that the wingers are pretty much key for us though. Wingers & the full backs. Every other position can be compensated for/tinkered with but these four need to be fit for the playoffs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the winger or FB is off form, then it effects the other. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tea and Busquets Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Two years ago today…. There was 6 games to go. Mental we didn’t even make the play offs from that position. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What’s even more mental is that despite a complete capitulation, we ended up with more points after 18 games than we had after 18 games this season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When they play well so do we. From that point of view I think you can play Burrell. If you look at the games where we have not functioned the two wide players have never turned up. I totally agree with you and I feel that if teams like Dunfermline double up on Kennedy, Morrison it totally nullifies any threat we have. Going forward to next season whether we are in League One or the Championship I don’t feel the team needs a massive overhaul. What are the key positions everyone feels McGlynn needs to focus on. I think we will need a striker with a bit more physical presence and we need to add a bit of dig to midfield, as well as a creative midfield player. We will also need a new right back as we cannot underestimate what Blaine has brought to the side. It will be refreshing not to need yet another complete squad overhaul though.

Guest Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 Legs and physicality in midfield and 100% need a striker that teams fear. Look at what Ayr have pulled off so they are out there. Wide players will probably also be required as I think Kennedy will be off and I can see a bid coming in for Morrison. CH will be needed too and maybe a RB is Rowe doesn’t sign. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Kinnear Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 Yip, you would think players have already been identified as potential signings. I suppose the uncertainty over league status might alter things. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 We're still going to have quite a big churn next season one way or the other. Too many loanees, players out of contract and players who won't want to stick around unless we are in the league above. To have a churn that's because we have went a league up or because players were in demand because they are actually good would be a really refreshing change of pace though. All for that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It actually highlights how good a run we’ve been on considering we had a relatively poor start to the season. Worth pointing out your claim above is wrong though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Below would be next years squad if we kept all the players who have an option of an extra year. Wouldn't be surprised to see him offer Nesbitt a new deal as he's been a constant this year. I'd imagine all of the academy players will be kept on for the development team if it goes ahead. Rowe & Kinnear are both out of contract in the summer so hopefully we can bring them onboard. Kennedy will be off elsewhere as we won't get anywhere near what he's being paid at Rangers.

We don't need an overhaul but what is more pressing, for me, is tying down the majority of the squad. Would prefer we retained players rather than them walk out this year. Lets see some contract extensions please. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
