Would certainly hope and expect to have at least one signing by the weekend, hopefully more. Every other team (except the Huns) have signed at least 2 players. If this time next week we are sitting with the same squad I’ll start to panic.

Ross not at St Andrews today
 

The big unknown is that we have no idea who (if anyone) was lined up before the approach for TC and then they were put on hold while we sorted out our head coach position.  I would like to think that has impacted our  number of signings

I'm not convinced that we didn't engineer the TC departure and that JR hasn't been the plan for 2/3 weeks.  If that is the case then I would have thought that part of the JR discussions would have been around specific targets and that we are off sorting those this week.  If we have 2/3 new players by say Tuesday of next week then it all starts to look sensible.  We can then start to pick off secondary targets/opportunities between now and the window closing.  If we haven't got some business under the belt by the beginning of next week then is the time to ask questions.

they will want to get as many as possible in for the trip to spain which is a week on sat

It’s July on Friday and so far we’ve released 10 first team players and signed nobody.

Totally unacceptable from the club.

We need 5 or 6 blah blah. Utter shite talk.

 
If the manager and board are comfortable with the recruitment process (and they have already said they anticipate signings this week) then why should anyone else be concerned?

 
The last 2 seasons (Micky and Tam’s season’s) i think our squads been too light and if it wasn’t for our defence last season we really could’ve missed out on the top 6 and 4.

we need a goalscorer, winger, attacking midfielder and 2 centre mids. It would be nice to have a balanced squad for more than 1 season.

Would be good if that started in the next few days.

Agreed feel like we’re miles behind again, nae kits, nae signings

Aberdeen, hibs, hearts all seem to on paper massively strengthened, were twiddling our fingers

 
Apparently Macron at fault with the kit delay according to a post i seen on Twitter last week.

 
Heard we may be switching to Puma from next summer

The fucking kits again!! Haha wha cares!??

 
Yep, hardly that big an issue really, just something else to whinge about

Imagine Utd fans wanting something, anything to get excited about.

Idiots.
 

If we need yo wait a bit longer for signings because Jack Ross is trying to get the correct players thtough the door, then I am not fussed but it's been a boring month after the extreme high at Dingwall.

As Roger says stove our recruitment has been verging on the ridiculous the past two seasons leaving us with a very imbalance squad and pissing fortunes down the drain.

If waiting a bit longer prevents deals like the Pawlett extension, Connelly extension, Swedish goalie when we needed a striker the I am happy to wait.

Do we still have David Byrne at the club as Head of Recruitment - always wondered if this role is for first team players or just recruiting for the academy.

No wonder our recruitment has been on a Road to nowhere...

Alex Gogic has signed. Don’t know why the club haven’t announced it yet.

Kits though? Every summer its the same. Dont get it. They'll be in it on the 1st game of the season thats all that matters.

Signings are the more pressing matter. But, TA said signings this week. Its 7pm on Monday and forums and social media in meltdown that we've no signed anybody yet.
 

Check twitter, we've either signed Gogic or the media guys are putting their output on Cinefilm.

Thumbs up again from me if Gogic signs.

Aggressive type that we will need especially when Butcher moves on.

There was a picture of an alleged player holding up a Utd scarf (rumour is it is Gogic). Taken last Monday at St.Andrews, the day Jack Ross was anounced.

Weird to be holding back the info from the supporters. If that is indeed what is happening.
