Could be wrong but I don't think we had Law and Wallace out injured at that point.
We could have spoke to McGeouch and only offered 6 months. That's a big upheaval for the lad for a 6 month deal.
By all accounts it seems he would improve us so maybe he sat down with Sharp and said look he's available now, likely have some resale value in the future. Speculate to accumulate kind of thing. We spend slightly higher and we will try and move a midfielder on, if not contracts run out at the end of the season.
