Ideas for Houstie

Given that we've no signed a CB yet, anyone got any ideas for possible/feasible signing targets for Houstie for this area of the team?

There doesn't seem to be many CBs available that we could realistically target. I heard that we were linked with Duberry.

Whilst I think he may have been a decent stopgap for last year, at 35 I don't really fancy him for the forthcoming season. He's good in the air, but I don't think he has got any pace, and his distribution once he has won the ball is at least as bad as Darren Dods's was.

For me, we are looking for someone with experience and who can find a team-mate with a pass instead of hoofing it up the park straight back to the opposition.

For Garry Kenneth too, it is noteable that he looks a far better CB himself when he has someone experienced playing alongside him. When he was paired with Webby he was like a different player.

I've got no suggestions, so I hope you guys (and more importantly - Houstie) can come up with some decent targets for a CB to join us b4 the start of pre-season.

Christian Dailly for CB as will play for the love of the club. Not cost us a penny.
Also Darren MacGregor from the Midden. He has had a great season considering he came from Cowdenbeath.

Dailly could be a good shout. Althoough, he will be 36 this year!!

Wiki says he was voted player of the year last season at Charlton, so he must've done pretty well down there.

It's good that he's a United fan too.

I don't know anything about the other character, the last player we got from Cowdenbeath turned out no bad though.

Who was that guy we had on tria at the start of last season? I would expect him to have a club now but there is no reason why Houstons contacts in that part of the world couldn't un-earth another like him. I would rather the club went down that route than regurgitating the same players we have been watching for the last 15years

Got to agree with Grumble. we need fresh bodies (Flood an obvious exception) to boost the squad. Duberry is not a football player. I heard we had been linked with Mensing from Hamilton, I thought he was a midfielder though. maybe wse will play the infamous 4-6-0 next season!!!!
