    Time will tell I guess.

    I am not questioning Stewart's ability as he was a standout player in a rank Dundee team but is he as good as Jonny which we really need him to be? And then if he is we still have the issue of sourcing a longer term replacement.

    We need guys in of the quality of Maloney or May when they were playing well to replace what has been lost but we can't afford that and although we might end up with said players they are more of a gamble now due to age and injuries.

    On top of it all we really need some competition for Rooney up front as he was not his usual predatory self last season and Stockley is not a feasible option.

    Bit negative. I don't think Stewart was ever seen as Hayes replacement completely different player. I think if anything he is in for McGinn. He would have been on the radar well before Hayes got the Celtic offer. We will just have to accept Hayes will be nigh on impossible to replace like for like. Doesn't mean we can't recruit wisely which we have already done and have a decent team on the park.
