Money to spend can mean owt though. Doesn't have to mean millions. And tbf if we win all games we'll win the league so there's still a slim chance of promotion. We'd have to win 15 of the remaining 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea. But given that Bullen seems to have got the lads into a comfortable system at the moment I do hope that Bruce looks at that first and tries to get players that boost the squad rather than signing players and then moving everything around again just to fit them in. We've been down that road before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fpowl Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Do you think we’d go back in for that attacking winger / wide forward we was strongly linked with was it from Chelsea or man city I think there was talk of him wanting to push for a first team role but his name hasn’t cropped up since. im too lazy to google so he might be playing regular, on loan somewhere else or injured Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birley Owl 1867 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 If we are looking for a striker though I hope it's Lawrence Shankland at Ayr United. Be available for about 1m if we have the cash of course. 23. 6 ft 1. Scored 18 league goals in 16 this season. Will be a star. In Scottish terms.

Spencerowl Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Bruce has been told that all future sales of gnomes can be funnelled into the transfer budget, expected sales of 1.2 million gnomes over the next year is a healthy budget. *projected gnome sales are an estimate. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His delivery from corners or when running and crossing is shocking, not able to beat the first man etc. Maybe better in an original back 4 where he doesn't have to get forward as much and get caught out position. I disagree and if you look at his stats this season they are very good: https://www.whoscored.com/Players/90882/Show/James-Tavernier I know the quality of the league always gets thrown at these debates but not every player from the SPL is L1 standard. There have and will continue to be exceptions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0114 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Bruce knows what he’s doing. Thank god we have a manager coming in that already knows our squad, knows our strengths and weaknesses. One of those managers that seem to attract players, he literally stole Bolasie while he was signing for Middlesbrough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

airborne_rat_of_s6 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 So; we are yet to appoint a manager and will not have our number 1 target in place for over a month, yet he is already lining up transfers. Hmmmm. Something not quite right with this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pgmetcalf Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 If he does come and I really hope he does just to pissoff the pig fans, it’ll be just to use us as a steppingstone. Maybe to the end of the season + the offer of a 12 month roller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boro are linked with him. Think he would be a brilliant signing and adds the pace we need. With absolutely zero end product, but he would get us higher up the pitch more quickly......sure there is better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
