There are clearly funds available but to date it appears that DM's targets have been outwith our reach. The concern is that we resort to last minute panic buys. It's a bit of a dose of reality I'm afraid. You look at the h*ns team and you see what a substantially higher budget can buy - not much it would seem. We should be under no illusions that even if we push out the boat in terms of our transfer and wage budget we are still operating within constraints in the current market. Obviously it's not ideal that we have limited ourselves to the overinflated English market but anyone who thinks that cheap quality players are a dime a dozen outside of the UK market clearly doesn't remember the late 90s.Originally Posted by blowupsheep

I think the celebrations were partly because it was the young lad who scored on his debut etc.
Give him a start in the next game - can't be any worse than May or Cosgrove. Like you say - I think I could do a better job than May at the moment. Perhaps McInnes could unleash a Don_Corleone and Blowupsheep strike partnership for the next game?

No. He couldn't cut it with us, he was Tom Kite at both St Mirren and Morton.
He has finally realised he's drinking in last chance saloon but championship level is where he's at.
What people also need to realise is that yesterday's performance is the problem not the lack of striker. We could have started with Harry Kane and Lukaku and still not created a chance for them.

The difference with Shankland now is he has a job a personal trainer in his spare time and lost weight. I reckon he would score more than Cosgrove and May combined

Aye, I heard that on the radio Saturday.
In the few games I seen him play for us he looked a bit lardy (pot..... kettle.......hello).
If he's screwed the nut and got himself in shape, fair play to the lad.
I canna help thinking he's found his level though, but mebbe no.

I feel really sorry for Stevie May. He's on a hiding to nothing playing for us and I completely fail to understand why DM paid money for May when he has absolutely no intention of altering our playing style to suit how he plays. He's absolutely wasted at us and should be looking to get out ASAP.
When he's eventually lining up against us for a team that's actually willing to play the ball to him when he's making a run behind the defence everyone will remember how good he is.

Well it shows how much of a fud he is then that it's taken him until he's with Ayr United to realise he needed to get fitter and hire a PT.
Maybe if he'd shown that commitment at AFC he'd be leading our line and scoring.
Good riddance.

He’s a fud that’s scoring goals at a fairly good level.
If he hadn’t been here already, he’s exactly the type of player everyone on here would be screaming to sign

Whilst I agree with most of that I think May is not putting enough effort in to make himself a threat. Bruce Anderson yesterday got himself into situations that gave himself a decent chance of causing problems to the Rangers defence.
I like yourself would prefer a much more positive approach going into matches in Scotland by playing with 2 strikers. Unfortunately the idiot in charge of the team would much prefer his resources, formation and tactics were suited to containing the opposition.

Yeah much rather have Sam cosgrove commitment leading our line and not scoring any goals
