    Well even MC mentioned that if we needed more it would have to be the free agent route. So I guess there is some room for manoeuvre. If I were Mr H, I would have stipulated that I would need to have the option available to me from the off.

    Agree but free agents still require paying. I assume A964 meant the wage budget?
    Sorry if I misunderstand!

    I must admit Kevin,I was merely focusing on the need to enter the market more than the ability.

    Tyrell Robinson just posted on his instagram account about his birthday celebrations, first time hes posted since the "suspension", hopefully a conlusion has been drawn up and he may be like a fresh signing if not released from his contract.

    Not rumours but given that we're apparently looking at more free agents, I believe these are all still out of contract. Not saying any in particular I'd want, but thought it may be of interest:

    Nicky Maynard
    Jay Emmanuel Thomas
    Cody McDonald
    Simon Jackson
    Darren Bent

    Rohan Ince
    Keith Keane

    Kazenga LuaLua

    Gary Irvine
    Paul Caddis
    Chris Baird
    Steven Caulker
    Greg Halford

    I could see us being if for someone like Caddis- recent experience of this league and can play in both defence and midfield.

    I'm surprised LuaLua doesn't have a club yet and I wonder whether there's a specific reason...

    We're in desperate need of more firepower. I'm loathe to sign has been but I wonder if Bent still has the legs to play...? McDonald always seems to chip in with goals at this level too.

    Lua Lua would be class at this level, and given Hopkin’s knowledge of Scottish football, wouldn’t be surprised to see Paul Caddis rock up on trial

    Steve Caulker has of the field problems but a good player and only 26, would Hopkin need someone with off field distractions.

    Yeah, that's true. Depression I believe? We wouldn't want anyone with behavioural problems but if he has depression, that in itself wouldn't have to be a barrier - If he still wants to, and is able, to play. Maybe a week to week deal?

    We are in a position of desperation. A couple of short term fixes needed.

    The decision to let Killgallon go looks more and more laughable by the game.

    I wonder if he asked @Keefly Bantam@Keefly Bantam to go with him as they have a mutual interest.

    I thought he left Dundee for 2million quid to a foreign team or did that not materialise in the summer ?

    You could be right although I cant find anywhere that he's signed for anyone else.
    Dundee rejected a club-record bid for Caulker from Norwegian champions Rosenborg. In the late hours of the transfer window on 31 August, Caulker left Dundee, after he triggered a clause in his contract.

    They’d both be class at this level. To be honest other than a clear need for a left sided attacking player, I think we need a left full back and maybe a centre half. We seem to have a few to cover central midfield now and when Reeves comes back we’ll have even more. Is Kermorgant a more central player?

    Centre forward I think.

    I thought Wood did well at left back. We definitely need better at Centre Back though
