With Turnbull and now Patterson out, Steve Clarke said after the game that there would "definitely be one, maybe two players coming in"

With Ralston in as right back cover already, I suspect it will just be a midfielder coming in to the squad.

Genuinely think this would be a great time to call Elliot Anderson up to main squad. The lad is clearly an exceptional talent. Get him involved

Is Allan Campbell fit? I think he is likely to be brought in if so. Before we opened the scoring tonight I was concerned that we only really had two attacking options on the bench in Dykes and Fraser.

 

Stephen O’Donnell could always come in for RB cover but I’m not sure Clarke will bother when we have Hickey and Ralston anyway. I’d probably rather bring in another CB (Gallagher)

Has been outstanding for us, part of a defence which has had 4 clean sheets in our last 5 games.

possible Campbell replace Turnbull (AM

Possible Gallagher and McIntyre (Reading)/Hyam (Blackburn Rover)/Wallace (Milwall)/Lindsay (Preston NE) replace Patterson and Hanley (CB)

Burke/McBurnie/Shankland replace Brown (ST)

If Clarke is bringing players in during the international window I’m 99% certain it will be guys who’ve been in and around the squad before. I can’t imagine he’d have debutants on standby.

 

I would think:

Gallagher replaces Hanley

Campbell replaced Turnbull

Maybe O’Donnell for Patterson but I can’t see him bothering to call up SOD given we already have two other RBs

I don’t see Brown getting replaced

Ralston and Hickey right full back after Patterson out

Tierney and Taylor left full back

If Hendry and McKenna start with centre back face Rep of  Ireland 

Porteous only one centre back in bench squad than need call up two centre back players clarke decide choose 3 centre back second half

Game is less than 2 weeks away, assume the squad will be out early next week?
Here’s my stab at it;
Goalkeepers: Gordon, Kelly, McLaughlin
Defenders: Robertson, Tierney, Hickey, Patterson, Taylor, Hanley, McKenna, Hendry, Porteous
Midfielders: Gilmour, McGregor, McTominay, McGinn, Jack, McLean, Armstrong, Turnbull, Fraser, Christie
Attackers: Dykes, Adams, Brown, Shankland
Porteous? I hear you all saying, Hibs bias I hear you all saying.
Honestly Porteous (although better on Saturday) is in his worst form right now since signing for Hibs and doesn’t deserve a place however due to injuries if we want 4 centre halfs then I think he may need to go in?
Cooper? Injured, Souttar? Injured, Halkett? Injured, unless my mind has completely drawn blanks I’m not sure who else there is. Gallagher maybe? Stephen Welsh? Tom McIntyre at Reading?
Clarke may opt to only go for 3 centre halfs plus McTominay tbf and like I say Porteous doesn’t deserve a call up but as it’s a triple header I reckon we’ll see a more inflated squad like we have previously.


Oh how they/we all laughed...
