So who's confirmed for the 2018/19 season. No rumours please - there's already a thread for that.
Goalkeeper:
Marciano
Laidlaw
Defence:
Gray
Whitakker
Hanlon
Stevenson
McGregor
Ambrose
Porteous
Midfield:
Bartley
McGinn
Slivka
Swanson
F. Murray
Forwards:
Boyle
Kamberi
Shaw
S. Murray
Is that it or have I missed out anyone? This assumes all the loanees will return to their own club and the McGeouch will be away when his contract ends.
Not terrible, enough there for first tie in Europe but need to strengthen for start of the season. Exciting times ahead.Quote:

Midfield and forward line certainly need a bit of work as priorities, with the caveat that a number of players (eg Whittaker and Boyle) can be considered in several positions.
It's not as bad as I initially thought, it should be enough for the first tie of Europa but I'd like to get some futures sorted.
Its 3 or 4 players away imo very light in midfield
i would keep 4 of our 7 defenders.
Be happy to replace gray and Whittaker if there are upgrades available but the others are definitely worth keeping imoQuote:

I've been patient up until now, but if we leave it much longer before addressing the midfield and forward areas then we'll struggle to have players up to speed in time for that game.
Although with the Greek league starting later, they might find themselves rustier than us.
