    In my opinion Frans has been brought in as the “big hard *******” ie to attack headers. What we need now is a CB who can read the game, who can mark strikers like Doolan and Dobbie and track their runs who commands the back line making sure we don’t concede goals because the fullback is keeping everybody onside and drags midfielders into covering gaps when fullbacks push up.

    Bringing in a “big hard CB” to play alongside Frans would be a disaster, it would work against ****e like Alloa but teams with fast, smart strikers would pump us.

    Having a hard team works if your game plan is to sit deep for 90 mins and hit a team from a set play/long ball but if your wanting to watch a team (like I do) that’s going to be attacking teams and having a go at every team in this league then we need to have a balance with a CB partenership that compliments each other. Not a dumb and dumber headballers combo.

    The lack of wild rumour while waiting is no good at all. Could someone at least make something up?

    When someone said there was rumour of a top 6 player coming to us Hayes was one I thought about but he was recovering from a broken leg was he not? If fully fit again would be a good addition yeah?

    Very much doubt Hayes would come to us, I would imagine if he was to leave on loan it would be to Aberdeen.

    I’ve heard that we are looking to sign Ali Crawford.

    Levein wants to offload Connor Fish no sure if he'd be any good whatsoever. Anyone know if Buaben is available and might come?

    Dont get the love for Connor Cod! Didnt do Partick any good last season. Buaben i would like to see here again, but am more inclined to not going back to former players.

    I did see mention that thankfully the lad Watt was on his way up the Tay, along with Andrew Driver, someone i think would have been good for us.
