    Are we going to sign anyone that will bring a bit excitement to the club or is it just the usual (take a chance on) type signings from the English lower leagues?

    Booooooooooh to boring transfer windows!

    Take a chance on, type signings from the English lower leagues, is the market that we have utilised for the last 5 years, and in terms of the league, pretty successfully.

    That and:-

    Players who went from Scotland to England, and bombed
    Players who are over the hill, but can still cut it at our level

    Who are you realistically looking for us to sign?

    Players who will give us a chance of winning trophies would be a great start. These players from Peterborough etc who have done the square root of hee-haw will only be further revolving football nobodies.
    We are meant to be the second best team in Scotland’s top league so let’s try improve on what we are instead of hoping for a Russ Richardson miracle.
    At the moment we are showing very little ambition of trying to improve on what can only be described as a footballing eye bleeding season.
    Who honestly thinks McInnes, Richardson, Milne etc have the ability to better us? Absolutely no chance is my answer.

    A good player indeed, however, you must have watched some sh1te to call him a “legend”, that aside, hopefully we kick on this season and bear in mind you can only p1sh with the c0ck you’ve got, our current chairman and other board members will be planted the richest men in their respective cemeteries ......we therefore just have to be realistic regardless who the f@ck our coach(es) are, those are the salient facts.......some can jump up and down, however, outwith sellick “most” fans would be content to be where we are......I’m nae, however, I’m realistic and comprehend why our......”on topic” summer recruitment is based on a model that dictates who we can attract.

    In fairness to Del only 2 of them are professional football players so I wouldn’t think he would be interested in the third guy. The football pair though will be fair game to him.
