That the Right Back? If so wouldn’t be against bringing him in if he’s got potential. Young and played plenty of football and could be looking for the next step. It would be good timing as we look towards David Gray turning 32 nest season.

Although I admit I’ve not seen a lot of him.

If he's been released by Dunfermline I'd be dead against it

There's a difference in releasing him and him running his contract down.

Noticed Brandon Barker said his good byes to PNE on twitter earlier today.

Given that’s a position we’ll be after I’d assume there must be a very good chance we’ll be in for him again.

Transfer Market website says he’s out of contract this summer but think someone posted a link before saying he’s still got another season at Man City.

I think Transfermarket means his contract at Preston ends this summer. If you scroll further down, it says he has another year at City.

I really hope we go for him

Too good for our league, in my opinion.

I’m not sure if Brandon Barker is one of those players who people think was a lot better than he actually was for us.

Injured a lot of the time and hooked at half time in a derby at ER.

Did show in glimpses he could be a very handy player to have

The first half of the season I'd have agreed with that, but the second half I thought he looked excellent. Teams couldn't handle his pace and he had started to provide an end product. I'd love to see him return.

I would cry with happiness if we signed Barker.

Can’t see us getting Barker and Thomas from City

[Halmyre Hibee]

The only problem with Brandon Barker is injuries. I read recently that’s 9 hamstring injuries in his career limiting him to around 65 first team matches including his spell with us. Exciting player though but with our recent injury list we would need to be careful who we sign.

I thought that last summer but I doubt they’ll be signing anyone on the back of a poor season for Preston North End.

We’ve not got the same cash as they do though so probably need to take more of a gamble on players like him.

It's a shame but Agyepongs injuries this season have ruled him out imo.

I’d have a fit Agyepong back in a heartbeat
Think Hecky must like him too, as he’s played him as soon as he’s fit

That’s the million dollar question

Yesterday Heckingbottom mentioned in the post match interview that he thinks we don’t create enough chances.

I think he will look to add real quality in the attacking positions.

Scott Allan is the difference between a average/good side and a very good side imo. The way he takes others out the game and sets up chances is incredible and really quite sad how since his brilliant loan spell with us last season he’s not kicked a ball.

He also seemed to add goals and work rate to his style of play too which is pleasing.

Can see Heck getting a lot of options of the top end of the park, young energetic guys who have the composure to use the ball right when in the correct position.

As it stands attacking wise for next season we have the following confirmed

Kamberi
Shaw
Scotty Allan
Fraser Murray
Boyle
Horgan

That’s for players who could play an attacking midfield, wide or striker position

It’s really not a lot when you consider potentially 4 could be playing at the same time, with 1 striker and 3 in behind. 1 of them being Fraser Murray who although looks promising, has it all to prove.

I expect
1 or 2 strikers
1 winger
2 central midfielders
Cover at right back

Aidan Nesbitt also free agent now after leaving Dundee United.

Were we not linked with him before he signed for MK Dons?

Fair enough you are feeding on scraps but you are still not taking your chances imo.

I said when we signed Agyepong that his issues will be hamstring injuries.

As such a fast player he has been prone to them every where he has played previously.

It’s a shame as there is a player there and he’s such a nice guy but we need a Boyle part 2 who is consistent. Obviously Boyle was unfortunate this season to get injured.

Barker also suffered with injuries but less frequent than Agyepong. When he played well he was unplayable but his final quality let him down.

If given the choice I would have taken Barker this season over Agyepong but we didn’t have a choice as Preston offered more in the loan.

We got Agyepong who played 7 games with 1 goal.

Barker played 27 games and 2 goals..

Agyepong wants to come back..

Bottom line is we need consistency as finding a decent left winger has been near impossible over the last few years.

As for interest - I believe Hibs have asked about Dundee defender Cammy Kerr who is out of contract. Dundee right back.

Said previously Kerr would be good business. Good player who is still young, solid defensively and would compete with Gray.

Liam Burt just been released by Rangers....heard we’re interested.

Interesting seeing the PFA Scotland teams of the year for each division. Anyone seen the two Ayr defenders? They have been picked up by Coventry and Dundee Utd.

We tried to get Rose.

I’d take wee Tam back if City offer a favourable deal.

A risk, given his injury record this season, but could pay off in a big way.

[Stuart93]

Not sure I’d want to see us take another chance on Agyepong unless we got him on loan for nout.

Too big a risk that could be money better spent elsewhere

I agree.

This season wasn’t a one off, think he struggled in his two years at NAC Breda as well.

Cammy Kerr would be a fantastic signing, not heard that we are in for him but if so then we should definitely try - very like SDG in the way he plays that position and loves to get forward into attacks. Good dig in the tackle too would be delighted if this is indeed the case.
