It's part of the jobs of McPake and Mackay to know far more than anyone on this (or any other) forum about the quality of the players we've got and the relative quality of who else might be available. They are probably being deluged already by CVs from agents.

If they decide to stick with who they have for the rest of the season I'm happy with that, but if they choose to add someone that's fine too - either option is a gamble. I would just expect them to make the decision on facts and not on emotional cries from fans that we "need" to sign somebody - our opinions are usually formed without knowing the full facts.

But its only your own opinion  parsforlife .. sometimes full facts prove you right 

As for shutting the internet down .. Can we wait until Mrs BPP has watched the new Agatha Christie

Not at all - you can post whatever you want to. Bouncing ideas off each other is a good way to advance knowledge.

But don't be surprised or upset if your opinion is ignored or rejected by somebody in possession of more facts or expertise on the subject.

One problem with individuals posting on the internet is that there is no editorial or quality control on their content. So anyone can pronounce on any subject and even if it is nonsense it can be read by millions before someone with actual expertise has a chance to repudiate it.

To that, we can add that there will almost certainly be financial restrictions which will make it very difficult to bring in quality players who can command a big salary. It's all very well to say we need a proven goalscorer, and/or a top class keeper if we simply can't afford them or these players don't want to come to the Pars.
