Kear said on the radio tonight that we are looking for a player, but the problem is prising them away from their club, and that they all obviously want a long-term contract to make the move. But he also said he then has to consider whether they fit into our long-term plans, or if they could never be more than just a stop-gap measure and we would want rid at the end of the season.
Negotiations are still on-going, but he did say it is a question of when he goes, not if he goes.
Another excellent, genuine and honest interview with Kear - even when the "revolving door" (his words!) is getting a bit beyond a joke, listening to him talk about the club reminds me why there is still so much hope for this season.
