NL said yesterday they were looking to add some quality to the squad. What else do you expect him to add to that?

Thomas Robert would certainly be handy to have, seems to have played pretty much every position across midfield and attack. I`ve no idea if he is any good in any of them though!

This will be the week we will start to see some signings though, I`d say on Tuesday we will see Ally Davidson, Wednesday Balint Demus, Thursday Alfons Amade and Borislav Rupanov, Friday at the open day, Laurence Shankland, Victor Wanyama and Tobi Oluwayemi

Bit of a random one and just chucking names out there but I always liked him, Ben McPherson who was on loan at Queen`s Park when they nearly went up a couple year back. RWB, good age, Celtic connection with Lennon. I believe he done his ACL so has been out for a bit but if he got back to those levels would be a good player to push for a starting place.

Some of the players being mentioned on here is laughable.

Are we genuinely wanting to challenge for playoff spot or happy to struggle at the bottom of the table again.

McPake got slagged off for only signing former Dundee or St Johnstone players yet any Celtic academy player who has links with Lennon gets mentioned as folk seem to have extensive knowledge of them all of a sudden.

Like I said laughable.

We need genuine experienced players who have played men’s football and who will instantly improve the starting 11.

"It is worth noting that the English contracts usually end at the end of June/start of July."

and they can be signed and announced at any time as Ross County did the other week with a lad from Sunderland adding he will join officially on July 1st.



That’s great if you’ve got a signature lined up but if you don’t you may need to wheel and deal a little when the market opens up a bit

I take you’re another one starting to think that our recruitment team are actually sh1t3 at their job?

This is looking like at least the 4th terrible summer transfer window in a row

If we don’t bring in two this week then I think it would be fair to start thinking that something ain’t right behind the scenes….

What an opportunity we missed in 2014.

To be honest, the current transfer window hasn’t lived up to the expectations set by Cook’s earlier statement. I know it`s still early days, but if we’re serious about progressing beyond a relegation battle, we need to bring in another 6 or 7 players, starters who can improve the squad from day one.

The core of this squad has already struggled to stay afloat in this division. If we genuinely want to challenge, the recruitment has to reflect that ambition. Right now, it’s shaping up to feel all too familiar, more of the same rather than the step forward we were told.

Really hopeful we’ll see some new signings this week, players who’ll make us all say, “This is exactly what we were promised.” There’s still plenty of time for the club to show its ambition, and if the next few additions hit the mark, it could be a real turning point for the squad. I’m staying positive, we might just be a few key signings away from something exciting.

Good, balanced post.

I, too, hope that this week brings some quality additions, but with every day that passes, it dilutes the chances of getting off to a fast start in the league.

`Supposedly linked with Myles Roberts Watford keeper was on loan to Partick Thistle 1st half of last season"

Would have been good but he`s off to Walsall on loan for a year.

I have a feeling we have quite a few players either earmarked or ready to sign for us at the beginning of July from further afield.

From what NL has said, the players weren’t strong/fit enough so they will hopefully be up to speed with any others we bring in. Then it’s time to gel. Top 4 finish would be excellent and no reason with a few quality signings that we can’t compete for that.

There have been remarkably few rumours in the media about any prospective signings but that doesn`t necessarily mean nothing is happening. Scott Burns of the Daily Record, who is generally recognised as one of the best-informed observers of the Scottish transfer market, said last week he had no knowledge of our rumoured approaches for Dylan Easton and yet a few posters on here claim to have spoken to the player who has confirmed the rumours and expressed interest in a possible move.

That doesn`t mean it`s going to happen but it does indicate there is activity in the background. NL confirmed as much after Saturday`s game. I would imagine the more ambitious a signing is, the harder it will be to conclude it.

I am sure there is recognition by the owners and management staff alike that the previous recruitment strategies didn`t work and those lessons (if any were needed) didn`t work. NL and others have said tgat they are looking to bring in players but they have to want to come to a championship club, they may be trying to sign players rather than looking at loans that involves negotiations, and others may still be under contract. I prefer a professional approach where we do our business confidentially and professionally, avoiding rumours, setting unrealistic expectations, and disappointment. At the end of the day, nothing is certain until they sign on the dotted line. I suspect this week we will see some movement.

Are we sure anyone has spoken to Dylan Easton? 🙄Seems more likely they spoke to Dylan rabbit. "Yeh man."

How about that East Kilbride right winger "Robbo", who tore the backside out of our defence on Saturday? If he performs like that regularly he`s quite a special player. Waltzed round our defence and stuck it in the net.

Believe what you want sir, spoke with him on Saturday at Pitreavie, his boy plays for Templehall (cracking wee player) and they were playing my boys team and he was there watching in his rovers tracksuit.
