Is that a dig?, the management and board have know for months we are short of players, not that long ago we went 6 weeks without signing a player. The fans have stuck to there end off the bargin. We have bought season tickets, turned up in numbers home and away. This year from match days looks like shirt sales have been very good. all the fans are asking for is the playing team and fan engagement to be meet with the same effort. fans have a right to voice there opinion.

I doubt he is going to say that but a shoulder off the blame can be passed into him, it’s the clubs fault hiring Grant then Hughes. Plus offering a bumper contract to Dorrans. He should have been given his P45 at end off last season and sent on his way.

He’s already said him self he’s to blame as being picky with player so can rightly blame him

Willing to eat my word and be proven wrong

The longer it takes players to get it the more I’m thinking we won’t get any in, shambles if u as me. All talk no jobby from manager and board about players

Is anyone optimistic we will see a few faces in before Thursday night or do we think it will be loan players towards end of loan market? Was evident on Saturday that we needed players to come on but we didn’t have it.

Can’t see it happening

Where are we in terms of squad and what is being done to finalise squad. With incomings or out goings of players

It’s actually a joke the club haven’t signed anyone outfield since Hamilton. You could tell in the league cup game against Alloa players were knackered. The good work that the board are now trying to do with the fans is being wasted on the playing side by not strengthing the team. the market isn’t slow anymore. I fear it’s gonna be a very long season

Under Crawford targets seem to identified and brought in already yes all signings weren’t good but I felt he had an eye for a player. Seems under Grant and Hughes and now latterly mcpake this has been a right rigmarole trying to get players in. May not be the manger but whoever is dealing with negotiations from the board side. I understand the **** show of last season dosent help but still feel the clubs is attractive enough for players to want to come to

Worrying that still not a sniff of signings, I wonder who’s involved in the process as seen like nothing has been learnt over the previous two windows

That’s when window closes, we have seen three signings so far and not a lot of rumours about others. They say it’s a hard window but other clubs are managing just fine

Doubt it too, can’t see much signings till end of august

Doesn’t read that way, says we are short and working hard in bringing in players but same old story

It dosent sound like anyway is coming in this week by the sounds of his interview on COWS. The amount of money fans have pumped into the club past few years and it’s been squandered by Grant and Hughes. the board need to start fronting up and help by getting players on board

More importantly it’s tail end off the week and still no signings in that’s what’s worrying

I like Todd in midfield I think he puts himself about and he is much better in the ball than people give him credit for, Hamilton will be solid and will always do a job. Allen had 2/3 opportunities to have a dig at goal today and never took them. The less said about charmer the better. wighton should stroll this league but I can’t see it happening, Ohara is better through the middle and would work with either McCann or todorov. the players were ****ing knackered by end off the match, don’t know if there still getting used to the pressing they are doing but they have all played virtually all preseason without breaks or rest ashavent the squad to rotate them. mcpake has to have seen that today and seen that we need bodies in and a plan B, the two Alloa centre half’s breezed it and hardly lost a header. another centre half and some creative players/ wingers and could be into a good team. we have the young boys in the squad he might aswell use them if they are there. He’s nothing to lose by playing them. thought alloas no 12 scougall was brilliant for them and there no 5 there centre half

All fart no jobby again, it’s like listening to grant and Hughes again.

My concern with that is it’s all fart no jobby. both grant and Hughes were saying that last season and was lead to be a lot of crap. I don’t know how negations works wtc but other teams seem to manage fine. spoke to a couple off Dundee mate and both said transfers are not one of mcpake a strong points.

QoS have strengthened again today with a keeper which a position we need, so slow from our manager and BoD. I kinda agree with parsforlife like no lesson have been learnt from previous windows.

The lack of signings is a major concern for me, the season is just around the corner and getting players in seems to be a problem. Not just this season but previous transfer windows too. I don’t get the slow market etc, I’ve no idea who deals with negotiations but they don’t seem to be doing a great job IMO. Fans have went and bought there season tickets and replica tops etc and we’re going on 6 weeks without a signing where clubs are strengthening around us. Yes the footballs better under mcpake and the youth coming through but still very short of players and been no mention of it from manger in past couple off games either.

Be nice if we had a new signing in but doubt we will, this is like last summer and January again. Although the football is better and more optimism about the club.

They have missed this month for people getting paid, so prob won’t be a big up take on ST until next month. there is definitely a lot less on the rumour mill about signings etc. I thought with cook coming in and his background a lot would have been down on ST sales fan engagement etc but seems to be less and less.

Still early, but was hoping for some news coming out off the club today in regards to season tickets or at least a signing/back room staff

Can only see it as next week they do season ticket sales and strips with a couple of player be announced at same time
