I agree we will be further behind in the league, jeez we are already between 5 and 10 points behind our main rivals after only 9 games, goodness knows what the gap will be after 21 games at the winter break. Having said that if we can keep Devlin and Lowe at the break then our defense is in good shape so if we can add a goalscoring forward and a creative midfielder in January (easier said than done I know) then I would definitely do that for two reasons - there is still the Scottish Cup to play for and also it gives new players the rest of the season to bed in so that hopefully we are better placed at the start of next season instead of waiting to August 31 to make a couple of panic buys.
Was it not the case that during the 2007/2008 January transfer window, when we were still in Europe (with Bayern Munich drawn), still in the League Cup (with a semi at Tynecastle against United), and obviously still in the Scottish and Milne treated us to a kid from Middlesbrough and Alan f@cking Maybury whilst we lost about three first team players...
I’d tell McInnes to play Campbell, McLennan, Anderson, Ross x 3 & Wright And if he can’t do that then he knows where the door is.
