resk Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 It's quite a (pleasant) surprise if we are seriously in the race for Campbell. It feels like he's been doing what he did against us at Pittodrie all across the league for years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naegoodinthedark Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 So, we’re after the Motherwell guy, and not the St Mirren guy? Or is it both? Or is that Hibs?Also, could people stop talking about selling Ferguson please. Don’t give anyone any ideas. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is that Hibs? Also, could people stop talking about selling Ferguson please. Don’t give anyone any ideas. We are after both Alan Campbell and Kyle Magennis. Both are out of contract at the end of the season. Its been reported that we'd always had intentions of attempting to sign the pair on a pre-contract in January however the recent Hibs interest has accelerated that. Much like the McCrorie deal. Logan, Main, Devlin, McGinn and Cerny are all out of contract at the end of the season. They are all fringe players and some are verging mid 30's. I don't expect them to be with us next season. Taylor, Considine and Wright may be offered new deals depending on how they get on this season. Ferguson will be with us next season unless we receive an offer we simply can't refuse next summer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zapp Brannigan Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 Campbell would be a great signing but I think he's similar to McCrorie, just a couple years ahead in playing time at this level, probably. Ferguson is also better deeper than advanced imo. Don't think Campbell would want to come somewhere he's not guaranteed to start every week as would be the case with us. However, if we want to begin to challenge for trophies, we need strong players everywhere and not just average squad players such as Ojo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the tungston weasel Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 I really hope not. McRorie and Ferguson in centre midfield is really strong, Mcgeough an option aswell when we play 5. I'd much rather we signed a centre back to replace McKenna than move McRorie into defence.I agree but it is not outwith the realms of a possibility. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This could be a great team for next season: Lewis Hernandez Hoban Findlay Hayes McCrorie Campbell Wright Ferguson Hedges Cosgrove* Of course if we were to receive an acceptable offer for Ferguson, Magennis could come in, in that role. *Although Cosgrove would probably have to be sold to afford the new signings! I would have Gallagher Hoban Findlay back 3 Kennedy/Hernandez for RWB and Hayes left McCrorie and Campbell with Wright in the hole A new striker (Kabamba maybe, I have always liked Brophy too) with Hedges Wright would have to up his game, still hopeful he can keep improving. 3-5-2 (3-4-1-2) bring on the silverware Edited September 30, 2020 by big al 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've a great squad this year we should avoid changing too many at once. I can see us moving on a couple in January and a couple in the summer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not as good as what we have. Kabamba looks a decent player going by his performances for Killie. However like Ross Stewart, Kabamba was poor against us. I quite like the idea of Liam Polworth - I believe he is an attacking midfielder. Both Motherwell and Inverness fans claim he should be playing for either half of the OF. He's referred to as a better version Scott Allan. In a fantasy world, I'd like to see Polworth, Findlay, Campbell, Ross Stewart, Gallagher and Kyle Magennis all sign. Let Main, Ojo, Bruce Anderson, McGinn, Devlin, Logan all find new clubs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Portsmouth are preparing a bid for Funso Ojo. Hibs really need to act now or they will miss out. If Ojo is leaving this window that would leave us with a 24 man squad. If Cosgrove is also sold we'd have a small amount to spend. I think we may see one last signing this window.....maybe Campbell or Magennis?
