... closes 23.00 tomorrow.
Brought in some good players this window but still say one more striker and another centre back. Maybe a bit experience with both.
Looks like few out the door too. Matty Todd being one of them.
Any inside info or rumours going into the dying embers of the window?

Been a great transfer window. Team looking like it has lots of potential. Clearly not the finished article this team but much stronger now than the end of last season.
Striker and a centre half would be quite some end to the window.

Agree with Knebworth Par, it’s been a great window where we have improved the squad in every department. They might not be “household names” but they are gonna be I’m sure.
Would like to see at least 1 more being brought in and if we can offload a couple as well, then even better.

Depends what we can do and who we can get in. Very least I’d want a CB.
If we want to really push for top 2 I’d be looking at 2x CB, 1x RWB, 1x Striker and another in central midfield 🤷🏻♂️

It`s been a great window and I think it`s fairly clear we`ve strengthened both the overall squad and the starting XI. The midfield additions of Gilmour and Amade in particular make a massive difference. Both wingback spots improved, more creativity with Càceres and a better #2 striker in Rudden than before.
The only position I think we`ve possibly regressed at is the goalkeeper, Munn still looks very raw (understandable given his age). Oluwayemi was much more assured by the end of last season and would have been good to get back. But these things aren`t always possible.
Two quality signings tomorrow, one at striker and one in defence would be terrific. Would expect 3-4 to head out the door if that`s the case.

All the furore about not getting our business done earlier seems to have died down now that fans are appreciating the quality of the signings.

I’m pretty happy with the starting 11 we put out yesterday. Best starting 11 we have put out in the champ in a long time.
A couple more who would be upgrades on what we have or who provide strength in depth to cover for suspensions/injuries would be nice. Particularly at centre forward or centre back.
If we don’t sign anyone I won’t be upset, I’ll just be hoping certain key players stay fit and available.

You say that, but had we made signings earlier we might have picked up more points against Morton and Raith.

Agree another experienced centre back is needed given the court case nevermind giving us the ability to rest Tod etc. I’d like another striker too so young can maybe go out on loan.
If Todd and a few others leave I would be great if there’s another attacking midfielder we could bring in, Jefferson looks great but not convinced cooper is quite good enough with the ball as the season goes on.
Decent window though now Lenny is playing them all, it’s taken until sat but a large chunk of the dead wood has been removed from the starting 11. Assuming we might do more business in Jan and some more are freed in the summer it’s all goin in the right direction. Only signing i think will prove a mistake is boothe but it’s only a 1 year deal.
Wonder if otoo not playing on Saturday suggests negotiations are ongoing with another club? If that goes through perhaps another playing might come in to replace him.

Are you suggesting we avoided making signings that would have improved the squad? What would be the point of that?

``Only signing i think will prove a mistake is boothe but it’s only a 1 year deal.``
I still question the 3 year deal for Cooper. Bit trigger happy with that after the Hearts game. I like Cooper but a bit excessive for me.

I thought Cooper played well yesterday. Excellent ball in for Rudden’s goal and forced a decent save from the keeper in the first half. I think we missed him when he went off.
I’m surprised we kept Oakley-Boothe on but Lennon obviously sees something in him. He was excellent against Hearts, in fact we fell apart when he went off in that game. He just needs to play like that more often.
We definitely need another centre half, striker and possibly a right back.

Cooper is coming on in his performances every time I see him. If he keeps this up he will be a fans favourite come the end of the season.

Not saying Cooper is bad, just think the 3 years was quite generous.

A few things missing from coopers game which will hold him back from going a lot higher, he’s not got any real pace to beat and get away from his marker and lacks a trick to beat a man.
Didn’t realise it’s a 3 year deal he got, yeah that’s a bit of a worry as I fancy like boothe he’ll drop out of the team now we have Jefferson and McLeod to came back.

I still like Cooper, there`s plenty going on there, he makes space and has an awareness about him, and I feel there`s at least another option for us, for me I don`t want to see him out on loan-hes worked his socks off, and he has ability -theres more to come from him.

Connor Young out on loan to League One team and we bring in another striker.
Davidson out on loan and an experienced centre half brought in.
Matty Todd will be away I suspect.
Otoo may also be on his way.

Coopers corner for the first goal then his cross for the second,forced the keeper into a save,then the dummy to give a player a shot at goal.
Doing nae bad by my account and more to come as he settles into that position.
I`m glad he signed a new contract.
