Does anyone know if we tested the water with a bid for him . There was talk and probably was just talk that we tried to bring Martin Boyle to the club for big money . Surly it would have been worth sticking a bid in for him. Rudden and Kane have been round the block for a reason , Mainly because they aren’t good enough .

Not signing outright a striker that can play 90 week in week out and isn’t injury prone is going to cost us a playoff spot IMO .

Starting to feel a bit like when the Germans came in exciting to start of with then nothing . A mean a loan deal for a livi player is pretty uninspiring.

I said similar today we still look so weak upfront.

Tod is a 10.
Morrisons pace is a bonus but he’s a winger.

That leaves us with Rudden, Kane and Thomas.

Rudden looked terrible today and doesn’t seem to be able to last a game.

Kane is a bit part player now due to injuries.

As for Thomas he seems like the rest we’ve had from Bristol City.

Striker position is an area we’ve needed to strengthen significantly for years.

No bid for Stewart, that was never on the agenda.

Certainly wouldn’t thank you for Boyle, since his Saudi move and subsequently came back to Scotland his attitude has cause for concern for me. Wouldn’t like his influence in our young team.

Barney will be onto bigger things if he continues and can see him ending up in championship down south if he is consistent with present form.

It’s the same old inconsistency issue we have, we play decent games against strong/stronger opponents and lose points against teams we don’t expect to. Personally I want to see a main structure of players to keep a basic foundation to build on. NL said after Hibs game he hoped it gave the lads some confidence … quite possibly an issue.
