Fact is though, Baraclough extended O'Brien's loan and signed Laing so at least two of them are technically his signings. How many centre halfs does he need to sign?
True. Two of them have either just been brought in or had their loan extended so Baraclough must think at least two of them capable...
I notice St Mirren have signed a player on loan from Tottenham. Cue implosion on here...
I know I'm repeating myself, but I really can't believe we're signing another centre back.
McManus, Ramsden, O'Brien, Laing, Kerr, Reid. All capable of playing there. Baffled...
I don't actually have a problem with the level these two Plymouth players are coming from (Keith Lasley couldn't get a game for Plymouth, Scott McDonald knocked back and released by more clubs than you can list, many others), it's more the fact that it's another centre half...
I meant, as I suspect you know, the young players that are actually our players, not here on loan. If Long (or Laing) does well, will we explore getting them back either on loan or permanently? I'd imagine so. But that's a question for the summer...
This. Tie up the young players and rebuild in the summer. The number of players out of contract in the summer gives us the perfect opportunity to do this...
