    Reporter: "Neil can I go back to the point where you said you want to shift players on before getting anyone else in. Some supporters might think 25m, wow, let's spend it. Is it the way you manage you want to manage a less bloated squad?

    NL: Yes. We dont want to clog up positions and departments within the squad. Am I happy with the squad? It's good but we are looking to add to it and if we do then we'll maybe have to move a couple out."

    Sounds a bit better than earlier at least. Sounds to me if certain players come in (RB, LB etc) players might need loaned out/sold (Likes of Ralston, Hendry) rather than punting these players before signings come in.

    If we brought in a LB,RB,CB and no one else I’d be pretty happy strong in midfield to up top just defenders and we’re swt

    So , we could have a really good right back and a cracking centre back lined up …. but Ralston and Hendry say " nah , I,ll hang around " we have to say to the better players " sorry mate if they dont go ….. "


    I know im taking it to the limit but youse get my gist .

    In that scenario, particularly those two players, you'd think (hope) that we could shift them on loan to an SPL team even if it meant potentially paying some or even all of their wage.

    Taken out of context and humour? Really? Then why * say it then?

    I don’t get Lennon regarding this at all. backtracking once again saying it’s down to humour? Out of context?

    We had enough of this from the snake and now it’s happening again.

    Maybe 2 or 3 in? Maybe? maybe * all, because we need more than 2 or 3 in and if he or the board can’t see that then I fear the worst this season.

    I don’t believe a word he says now regarding transfers.

    said it on more than one occasion the biggest threat to 10IAR is purely down to our board.

    His Press Conferences and interviews are all over the place. He’s not the only one doing it in the modern game but there’s zero consistency in what he’s saying.

    It's as if our clubs main focus was dealing with the KT transfer, we should be avtively looking to get multiple deals done as soon as possible. That's us at the 3rd qualifier and we've only signed 3 first team players after letting 13 leave. It's actually embarassing how pathetic we are at trying to sign players.

    Regurgitated *

    Noting will ever, ever change with this club. 2 more I’m guessing. Probably a loan and a project

    This doesn't make sense.

    We arent bloated in the 2 main areas we need to strengthen. RB and LB.

    Why not go out and sort that immediately? Hes all over the place with his words.

    I reckon hes said that stuff about getting 5 players in, walked into the boardroom smiling only to be given a smacked * by Lawwell. "Aye see all that you've just said...nae chance".

    As someone said above - wheres the consistency in his statements? Who do we have to shift out?

    Sinclair at LW maybe? Kouassi CM? Other than that where else..

    Aye that’s a bit weird, you’d think probably only Hendry.

    Noone abroad would take him though youd think. Best option now is scotland but who's going to pay his wage...noone.

    Statements are weird as * tbh.

    Aye, punt out on loan and we’d be paying most of the wages. I agree mate.

    I think he was talking about moving some players out on loan to get some game time..
