Tekel Towers » January window, what do we need?

Definitely a different kind of striker to what we have, likes to play on the shoulder, could be a good one

We do a need a forward who will make the runs in behind. Watt & Moult both drop deep / wide too much for me.

Two good signings for us.

I think with Wotherspoon coming in we might see Glass or Mochrie moving out.

Good shout from Finn with regards to Ayina, he would do a job st this level no probs.

Center Half next please.

Is that a cryptic tweet 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

That is a strange tweet. Wouldn't surprise me if Watt is away to Motherwell. Which means we're still short of Strikers even if Grieve signs.

Not too sure on Wotherspoon (can only be a short term fix), but if he adds the creativity we are lacking to get us up then probably makes a lot of sense.

The boy Greive looks like a sensible bit of short term business too. Clearly not getting enough game time at Paisley, but should be good enough to get goals in the Championship. A better option than Murray for me. He's also the right age so could be that we can cut a deal for him in the summer if it all works out?

We do however need cover in central defence if Gallagher is out for a few weeks. I wouldn't object to trying to get hold of the young lad Ayina again.

I liked Ayina. He is raw but there is definitely a talented player in there. With the right coaching.

What about Dan O’Reilly currently at Raith. His short term contract with them is up. I know he’s a left sided central defender but was signed by Raith to cover Keith Watson. He’s done a great job for them and apparently being chased by a few others. Scored a few also plus would weaken Raith.

edited. Just seen online he's apparently signed for Partick.

Would Well fans see that as a coop?

Are they trying to poach our Tony.

Could be gone by Frieday

Finn Seemann · 10/1/2024 2:09 pm

His brains are definitely scrambled

United Arab Emarite · 10/1/2024 2:18 pm

dozen't bear thinking about...

Macho Man · 10/1/2024 2:28 pm

Would any club shell out a fee for Watt?

It really is beyond the yolk...

RogerTheAlien · 10/1/2024 6:32 pm

Surprised that Denham & Birightti are still here.

KdyArab · 10/1/2024 6:44 pm

Wotherspoon saying on BBC Scotland that he hasn’t signed anywhere yet. Don’t suppose he would say any different if we are playing his current team on Friday.

He also pretty much says how he’s looking forward to helping United push for promotion!

Heard earlier.

Watt on loan to Motherwell. Possibly by the end of this week.

Just a rumour but i can see this happening and the timing would be bizarre (for me), given he's finally starting to contribute with goals and assists.

If we replace Watt with Greive it’ll be completely unacceptable.

Is "completely unacceptable" pronounced "exactly what I think will happen"
