    Limited defenders

    Hearing that Gallacher broke his ankle at training yesterday. Still to be confirmed and that Sam C Harding being asked to step up next week.

    Been kinda relaxed about this season, but it really does look like the gods are looking elsewhere just now!

    Is Jim gonna pull a rabbit out the hat or just hope that Ross, Sam and Manny on his return are gonna carry us through? Suppose Sevelj is another option, but we are on the verge of considering Jort and Dalby at the back!

    I seem to remember Daly stepping into CB when we were struggling for CBs , I might be imagining it, he done ok if I recall

    If it's true about Gallagher then it's going to be a tough selection

    For me if Manny is out we'd need to go with

    Harding Graham Sevelj as a back three

    With Graham in the centre of it

    Get Doc into midfield with Sibbald and Luca

    I wouldn't take Sevelj out of midfield. He's good there, and even provides an outside threat of a goal.

    I don't thick he's cut out for defending in the SPL. Not at all.

    If needs be then he must be used in the position he started out in here! Hopefully he has a better understanding of how to play at the back in the SPL having been in my opinion, the best player for a number of games while others fall around him.

    However, Sevelj in defence only works if Doc, Sibbs and Luca are all able to fill the midfield and able to provide a standard of performance that is near their best.

    There would probably be more goal threat from VDS if he was playing centre back.
