Here is the key quote for me....
"We've got a run of big conference games ahead and having Janis on board until the end of the season gives us a bit of cover for injuries too."
Forward thinking some may say......common sense I would say........
We say...."we'd be fine if everyone was fit"

I do fear for us tonight actually, only blessing, is it's not a league game, think Panthers know they're through already, so might not go as hard as if the 2 league points depended on it

So frustrating - really hope we get the finger out and sign someone. At the moment I can see us being left behind for the remainder of the season. Everyone else seems to have strengthened and we've gotten weaker (injuries). Age old question - how can Dundee afford more imps than us when we get nearly double the crowds? Are they putting themselves in debt here? Suppose time will tell On the whole their imports will be cheaper. That is obvious. On top of that they only, in general, employ guys who come over on their own and share a flat with 2 other guys where as here almost every imp has a partner with them.

Yeah you only have to look at average age to see why. Fife's average is almost 30!

Actually Flyers average age this year is just over 27 and that doesn't include Steven King as he has hardly played for us

Suppose time will tell They have 11 for one reason and its not that they have more money than fife it's because their owners are not pig headed and stubborn as I've said before , if elite say we are going with 9 imports fife would have 7 Muir needs to bury the hatchet what happened 10 years ago happened , time to move on

Why is it 'obvious' Dundee's imports are cheaper? Their pedigrees seem pretty similar to our guys dont they?

No AHL experience in their ranks apart from Rio and Flyer is right their accomodation is different but like Ive said before you cannot purely look at fan numbers they maybe have a bigger sponsorship portfolio or are more economical with their cash.
I don't think we get the most bang for our buck and that is the real issue. If we can't afford another player there is a problem somewhere within the structure of our club because we should be able to afford 11 with a fanbase of our size.
