Seems like the signings are rolling in following McGinn's departure.

This one is rolling in since Preston got Brandon Barker

Yeah but surly your objective in the league is to realistically qualify for Europe, so ultimately to get to the stage we are at on Thursday so would be crazy not to priorities that? We have a good opportunity this season in Europe we must grasp it. Plenty league games left to gain the required points, all or nothing Thursday tho

Agree with that to an extent, I just think the players are capable of playing twice a week at this stage. If it was the middle of December and we were 20 games in then maybe a different story, but not yet surely.

Some ***** being spouted on here about Marv

Totally agree he has been excellent in the last 2 games and no coincidence that we have had 2 clean sheets. Can see him being rested tomorrow however will imo definitely be needed for return leg when we need to be very strong defensively.

I wonder if the people that reckon Marv is immobile actually watch the games

Great assessment. Marv lacks mobility and fitness hence why he sits so deep. Always blowing at 60 mins. He’s far too muscle bound for a footballer

What a crock that is.

Same here, great guy to have available and rarely lets us down, there's some of our rivals and clubs who are just having trouble competing with us who are sick of the sight of him though and would be happy to see him go.

It’s not the stage of the season that is the problem. Even the fittest players in the world need three rest days between games or performance dips. There are tons of studies on it.
The more we can rest players before Thursday the better.

While I agree that we need a better ball player than Marv in midfield, you are 100% correct that that is a load of crap. Too muscle bound to play football?

It certainly wont come around for a long time if we are willing to sacrifice league points.

We have only played a handful of games so I'm at a loss as to how fatigue kicks in. Injuries can happen anytime so also shouldn't be used as an excuse to rest players.

Important we get off to a strong start this season. Strongest team should play for me.

Yeah, fair points mate! It's a bit chicken and egg I suppose.

He only signed in february and the bid was rejected in April. The only reason the bid was rejected, and so high in the first place, is because it was outside the transfer window so they wouldn’t have been able to replace him.

If he goes during the sunmer it wont be for anything near what was previously offered.

Didn't realise that, cheers 👍

I think romelu lukaku may be a useful counterpoint!

If someone feels too muscle bound to play football they needn't despair. There's always a place for them with doctor football at the gorgie megadome.

Nade was rather "muscular" and they seem to have taken that to another level with their latest wonder striker.

Horgan 3 year deal

***Billy Whizz*** · 11-08-2018 09:02 AM

Hopefully registered and able to play tomorrow
Think he’s been involved with PNE, so should be match fit too

***Diclonius*** · 11-08-2018 09:02 AM

Yaaas. Thought this one was dead in the water.

A permanent deal too!
