| 222. Author: Jealous Furniture Date: Fri 23rd Jan 2026. 19:42 I agree that we`re a bit light on out and out strikers, only really have Rudden, Thomas and once every so often, Kane. NL seems to favour playing two strikers recently too However... we have tonnes of attacking mids/forwards who are struggling for game time, I think we`re more likely to see them fill in as striker than we are to see us sign anyone else A Tod Cacares McLeod Cooper Bray M Todd Morrison Hosler all are competing for 2 places, and tbh Andy Tod has his place nailed down, so it`s the other 7 going for 1 spot... (I suppose Matty gets minutes as right back too, but still) Reply |

Obvious talent though. Pars were interested years ago but his attitude towards his ex Cowden boss put us off him. Zwei Pints Bier und ein Päckchen Chips bitte  Post Edited (Fri 23 Jan 20:15) Reply |

Author: Dave_1885 Date: Sat 24th Jan 2026. 08:13 AdamAntsParsStripe, Fri 23 Jan 20:13 Was at the Swifts post covid when they all joined the full leagues and scored a barrowload them, but he is probably about Lowland League level now, should get a few goals for them. Done well for himself as a player to be fair, played at decent enough level for a local lad. Reply |

| 227. Author: wee eck Date: Mon 26th Jan 2026. 13:03 Some Championship chat from Scott Burns in the Record - Any update on Ronan Hale to Gillingham? That one looks unlikely to happen now. Gillingham went to £200,000 but it was short of Ross County’s valuation. I don’t see them going back in any higher. I would suspect that Hale is more likely to go in the summer, if he can get the Staggies out of relegation trouble. But you never know what madness could happen in the last few days of the window. Any Morton transfer news? Preferably striker and centre half? They are looking for another striker. I know that Eamonn Brophy has been offered to a few Championship rivals. That could free up budget if someone was to bite on that front. The issue for Ian Murray is trying to generate funds because money is tight at Cappielow. Any St Johnstone updates? Simo Valakari is trying to bring in another striker that is his main priority. He is keen on Queen’s Park forward Josh Fowler. The Spiders are reluctant to sell their top striker while they battle to stay afloat in the Championship. Hamilton’s Oli Shaw is another they have spoken to. Fowler is the preference but Shaw could be revisited if a deal for Fowler can’t be agreed. Saints will be able to use some of the money from Adama Sidibeh’s six figure move from Stockport County when it is finally announced. Will Arbroath sign anyone? I think there will be a bit of movement in and out at Gayfield. Nokolay Todorov is attracting interest from a few clubs. If the striker goes then that will free up budget. There are also concerns over Findlay Marshall. They are waiting to see if Aberdeen don’t hit the recall button on their midfielder before the end of the window. It is a worrying possibility for the Red Lichties. Reply |
| 228. Author: Indiapar1 Date: Mon 26th Jan 2026. 13:15 I cant imagine we are in a rush to bring anyone else in. I suspect St J are likely favourites to sign Olly Shaw. Im not convinced he would add anything to us at this stage. G Wardrope Post Edited (Mon 26 Jan 13:28) Reply |
| 229. Author: Ahoy!Ahoy! Date: Mon 26th Jan 2026. 13:38 Possibly another central midfielder depending on how serious Tashs’ injury is? Only really leaves us with Hammy, Amade and Gilmour. Reply |
| 230. Author: Left Par Date: Mon 26th Jan 2026. 13:47 Ahoy!Ahoy!, Mon 26 Jan 13:38 Otoo is more than capable in midfield too. I wouldn`t write him off. Reply |
| 231. Author: wee eck Date: Mon 26th Jan 2026. 13:54 Once Kearney is 100% fit Matty Todd could move into midfield. Reply |
| 232. Author: GJS93 Date: Mon 26th Jan 2026. 13:54 a centre half is a must unless they believe Davidson is ready and with the co-operation agreement in place they will recall him if or when required. better cover for Fraser would be next for me but the priority after a centre half would be trying to get at least a couple of players out.

| 233. Author: Ahoy!Ahoy! Date: Mon 26th Jan 2026. 14:03 Just through perhaps Tashs’ injury may see Otoo return to the squad as a midfield option, which I think is where he’s at his best. Mehmet and Ngwenya have came in form the cold, so don’t see why Otoo can’t. Post Edited (Mon 26 Jan 14:03) Reply |
| 234. Author: wee eck Date: Mon 26th Jan 2026. 14:07 Suddenly Tash has become difficult to replace! Reply |
| 235. Author: Raymie the Legend Date: Mon 26th Jan 2026. 14:14 I would say we need cover at centre back. Also, we don’t really have an out and out scorer, but these are hard to come by. It`s bloody tough being a legend Ron Atkinson - 1983 Reply |
| 236. Author: Bucuresti Par Date: Mon 26th Jan 2026. 15:42 Rudden is an out and out scorer, Kane to a lesser extent. I`d expect Andy Tod and Morrison to be either side of Rudden and/or a little deeper in our starting XI most games. Thomas might be best through the centre but could play wider as well. After that as Jealous Furniture points out, there is an array of wide forwards/wingers/attacking midfielders - Cacares, McLeod, Cooper, Bray, M Todd KRH. Matty Todd is clearly doing well at right wing back, but we don`t need 5 other back up options for the front 3 positions. KRH seems furthest out the picture, but would anyone from League One be interested and be willing pay a decent chunk of his wages to take him on loan? Then maybe one of Mcleod or Bray, as the youngest they might benefit from a loan in League One. At centre half, it will depend on Lennon`s confidence in Otoo and Hamilton to fill in, and Davidson if he can easily be recalled. I agree with GJS93, if Fraser gets injured, there is nobody in the squad that come in and play the left wing back role to nearly the same level. Otoo really struggled there and it didn`t seem to suit Ngwenya either. Reply |
| 237. Author: wee eck Date: Tue 27th Jan 2026. 11:37 Scott Burns at the Record is now saying Ross Co have accepted a bid of £250k+ from Gillingham for Ronan Hale and he`s on his way there for a medical and to agree terms. Post Edited (Tue 27 Jan 11:51) Reply |

| 240. Author: DJAS Date: Tue 27th Jan 2026. 13:26 Jeffery, Tue 27 Jan 13:23 Fowler from Queens Park is their preferred target. Accies turned them down for Shaw at start of window and the are unwilling currently of offering more. Predictor league winner 2012/2013 Post Edited (Tue 27 Jan 15:03) Reply |
