I’d be more inclined to agree if Souttar had been a regular this season but he’s only played seven of our last forty matches. A decent permanent CB signing would obviously have been very welcome but let’s not lose sight of the fact Souttar has barely played for us in over a year. With Souttar I could've seen us pushing up the table with a decent top-half finish and looking forward to next season, as well as a greater chance against Brighton. Crazily, we're still only 10 points off the playoffs. I'm still hopeful we'll beat our post-relegation best of 14th. Only.. yes we only need to average automatic promotion form over the last 18 games, how hard could it be? Need better than play off form just to get top half!

Slightly unfair to say Hoever looks like a competition winner based on a 20 minute cameo in a team which he has just joined and trained with less than a handful of times. I’ll reserve judgement for a few games at least. I’ve always hated Pearson when he has played against us but that’s because he was always very effective and a bit of a shit house. Hopefully that’s one we get over the line. I don't think it is. I felt sorry for him he was that bad. But there could be mitigating circumstances for that as you say and we shall see. That's why it'll be fun to watch. Because if he's that chaotic and actually good then he will be a cult hero. Here’s hoping it will turn out that he’ll end up a cult hero! 👍 I think if we start the next game with the same side and formation but swap Pearson for Thompson (if the deal goes through) I think we would look a lot more balanced. I’d also start baker instead of Smallbone. Baker has always looked better further up the pitch.

I know you’re not a fan of Brown but with the addition of Celina and a more balanced midfield with Baker allowed to play further up the pitch I think we will create more for the likes of Brown/Gayle and even Campbell cutting in from the right… which in my opinion is his most effective position

It's the others you mention. Gayle at least can control a ball.

Excellent signing.
Hopefully it's only a loan so we could get it over the line then attempt to sign him permanently in the summer.

So we're now doing what the manager said he didn't want to do and wouldn't do, pay people to sit in the stand each week?
These lies just keep on racking up...

So I guess we are spending the souttar money in the summer or will the unfairness and unbalanced FFP not allow it?

Excellent signing. Didn’t think we wanted loan players sat in the stands wasting a wage?

Got to think there's a good chance of signing both Sarkic and him if they perform
This is pleasing

Probably the only way we could get it over the line at such short notice.

Excellent news.
This is turning into a good window.
If only we could get Cresswell on a free.
