D'Jaffo Posted January 2, 2022 Author Share Posted January 2, 2022 I think Stanton is a brilliant signing for Raith but I can’t say I’m that fussed about anyone else teams have signed. Jack Hamilton would’ve been a class signing but we were never going to be able to sign him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fun times I'd take him back now over Afolabi. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THEHonestman1910 Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 To be honest, I'm not expecting a whole lot from January. We usually go backwards as a team during this window with some of the absolute dross we've brought in. I'm really only expecting around 2/3 players coming in the door. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that is indeed the case we’re be aswell preparing for league 1 just now. Need 5 as a minimum. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superhursty7 Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 If Houston does not sign a deal we need a RB, Muirhead needs to be at CB when he comes back and so far I'm not 100% convinced in McAllister 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we probably need around 5 aswell but I would be fully prepared that it would be 4 haddies and 1 mediocre player. Our recruitment in this window is dreadful and very last minute. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did not have a head if recruitment and managing director in previous windows , anyone who thinks we will get 4/5 players in without anyone leaving I would think are way of the mark , to get 4/5 in we need 2/3 out 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think there's a chance we can get 5 in. Certainly not of the required quality to come in, hit the ground running and make a difference in the Championship. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D'Jaffo Posted January 2, 2022 Author Share Posted January 2, 2022 Has kris Doolan retired? Noticed he’s giving updates on sportsound on the qos Hamilton gameThought he signed for EK? On the player recruitment, I think we’ll be able to get 3-4 in as that was the number I had heard Duffy was told he could sign before Mathie and co joined. If we want anymore than that I think we’ll need to offload players. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These players have shown under 2 (3 in some instances) different managers that they aren’t up to this level. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No_Problemo Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 (edited) Three quality additions would be fine IMO. They can then compliment McAdams, Houston, Reading, Muirhead, Murdoch, Maxwell, Bradley Adeloye. That is a half decent core, if complimented by three quality additions. Most of those players have shown they are up to it, at one point or another. You can’t just start replacing six players in a side and expecting it to work either.
