wee toon red

Other than McKenna and Logan, today's team can't be far off the one many people would've nominated as our strongest before the start of the season. Hopefully they'll start to play like that...

We've played one up front in 99.9% of the games under McInnes. It's not like that's ever going to change regardless of the opposition so I don't know why anyone would be surprised

Gilmour has the potential to be a great signing. Can't see it happening.

If they're a better sponsor than the one we currently have...

Taylor had a recurrence of his injury on Tuesday and is out for “several weeks”, as is McKenna.

If Hayes is available we should absolutely be in for him. I’d also be having a word with James Morrison and Alan Hutton!

I'm assuming their name being on this list means they're not getting a stand named after them. So, on that basis: Miller Cooper Scott Hewitt Donald Harper

Doohan and Kelly are on loan from the Tims and Huns so that's probably got more to do with it. Fuck knows why Harvie is in there though.

It's Rosenborg's left back apparently.

Good post. You've also got to laugh at the "McClueless" stuff. For all McInnes' failings, and whether he's gone stale here or not, describing him as clueless is a joke. We've had plenty clueless managers in the past and McInnes certainly isn't one. He might be limited, stubborn, too loyal to certain players etc but that's a long way from clueless.

The McKenna situation notwithstanding, it's definitely been a good "close season" for signings so far. Another centre back, regardless of McKenna staying or going, would be great but that's probably wishful thinking.

There is still another three weeks to get May off the books so plenty time for something to happen as he's not very likely to be heading to England anyway.

Could be more to it, but on the face of things it looks like Juve have shafted Spurs massively by changing their minds on selling Dybala to them at the last minute.

Scott Vernon v Falkirk in the 2013/14 league cup. We won 5-0.

It would be odd if the club weren't keeping McKenna informed but certainly not impossible. Everyone - club, player and presumably agent - were content during the last two transfer windows so I can't really see why the club would start dicking him around now.

Sign them both!

McKenna can shove his request up his arse. He was happy to sign a long-term contract so unless we get a bid that meets our valuation, and a suitable replacement in, he can keep his trap shut.

Wright and Wilson in for McGinn and hedges isn’t exactly worthy of the tombola chat, it’s two wide men replacing two others.

Confirmed: Lewis Logan Taylor McKenna Considine McGinn Ferguson Ojo Gallagher Hedges Cosgrove

What was up with Taylor? Just the usual complaining for the sake of it and needing someone to criticise even when we won a game?

I think Ferguson, Bryson, Morrison and Ojo, with Campbell in the mix as well, gives us plenty options for injury cover and rotation: Bryson and Morrison might not both be able to play every game and Ferguson will need a rest at some point.

Sky Sports apparently saying we’re in for James Morrison on a free. Certainly plenty experience there so from that perspective he’d definitely be good for Ferguson and Campbell. Both Edinburgh teams sniffing about too.

We're apparently competing with Hibs for the guy Ojo who's currently with Scunthorpe. Would imagine McGeouch definitely isn't happening if we're offering cash here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/48954839

Either the loan will do Ross good or prove that he isn’t up to it with us. He is that young any more so needs regular football somewhere.
