In terms of depth, it is the same as before the window - 4 out, 4 in (or 5 out, 5 in if Dykes included). The quality is probably better, but the numbers are the same. If Todd goes, we will be one down on the numbers before the window, unless we get somebody else in.

True. The squad is stronger and some of the players we have can play in a number of positions, which is a great asset to the squad if there's any injuries or suspensions.

Interesting to see what the manager thinks his best 11 is if everyone is fit. Mines would be 

Martin 

Mercer

Maguire

Doyle

Marshall

Stirling 

Low 

Wilson (unknown quantity but he won't be here to sit on the bench)

Todd 

Dykes 

Dobbie 

When you think we could potentially have a bench of Leighfield, Brownlie, Fordyce, Jacobs, Murray, Aird and McGrath if he signs is quite promising.

Slighhe's  off topic but where is Sir Stephen sitting in our all time top goal scorer chart now?

Looking at wiki I see he scored 47 in  84 appearances in his first spell between 2007 and  2009.

He played game 85 of his second spell last night and has scored 56 goals. He can’t be too far away from third place now.

 

Would expect the shirt sponsors BFL are felling rather pleased with all the publicity he's getting!

Wikipedia only shows league appearances/goals in its totals.

If everyone is fit and whatever the starting 11 is, the bench will be a hell of a lot better than it has been.

No easy convinving somebody to sign and sit on the bench tho.. 
Plenty of young lads out there who I'm quite sure would be happy to get the last 20 mins or so that way we could bring dobbie or dykes off earyer save the legs a bit.

It’s been an excellent transfer window

Yeah fair play to all involved. Naysmith said early on we'd have to wait and on paper he's done a decent job. I know people say we need a striker but it'd be extremely difficult to loan a striker who is only going to get 10/15 minutes here and there as the Dykes/Dobbie partnership would take some breaking.

Good to have a wee bit of depth now and it's going to be good seeing a bench with potential. When was the last time we could say that? Hopefully Todd makes a quick recovery and the new boys hit the ground running and 4th may not be unthinkable.

Well done to all involved.
