Forfinn Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 Hopefully that's them just getting the least exciting signing out of the way first. You'd hope we've not brought in a goalkeeper on loan who can't get a game for League One Charlton to replace Laidlaw as number one. As a backup, allowing Munro to go out on loan to get meaningful first team experience, then fair enough. Although you do wonder what's in it for Maynard-Brewer in that case. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’ll make it a permanent move. At least the club has back up keeper and central midfield sorted. I repeat, yet again, that they have no wingers and are relying on Blair Spittal to create chances. That team’s absolutely awful. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if he’s signed to replace Laidlaw, what’s the point in replacing him for a season? Can we get a centre half to replace Coll “here’s a penalty” Donaldson? Cheap wages probably with the perk of having a decent keeper as back up instead of a youth player. I know Baxter was on 8k a week at Chelsea but we were only paying £500. I agree though, I'm amazed clubs are allowing to send loan keepers to us when they must know they're unlikely to play going by the last few we've had. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you not noticed we're playing 3-5-2 yet? I doubt we'll be signing many wingers and instead wing backs. It's similar to the situation last season when Motherwell fans were a bit surprised they let their winger Jermaine Hylton go to us but he didn't fit their formation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, we'll sign more central midfielders and play them out of position. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just went back to this week's P&J Northern Goal podcast to get the direct quote from Andy Skinner: "From what I understand, I think Malky will revert to a back four when he's got the numbers for it. They have been playing three at the back in the first few games but once he's got that real depth across the squad it's more likely to be a back four he goes back to." The first four words suggest that might not just be idle press speculation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comrie Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 (edited) Malky has always gone for a 4? At Wigan and Cardiff he was from memory a fairly rigid 4-3-3/4-5-1 user. Admittedly at Cardiff it was with Craig Bellamy on insane money. Edited August 6, 2021 by Comrie 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
