I suspect McCall is working in the background on some potential targets. Extending Cole’s loan and keeping Sneddon does suggest he knows the players he wants to keep. 
 

Maybe Mansell & Harkins still to leave this month?

I'd like to keep Mansell. I think there is a player there. Harkins can go.

Maybe McCall is happy with the squad he has and clears it out in the summer.

I would hope not as I still feel we are uncomfortably close to the bottom 2 and none of them are his players (albeit he would keep some). Whereas a few useful additions and we are really not that far off the promotion playoffs either and with a decent manager in McCall we could easily challenge those that are there

Agree with above. 

Seen Mansell only 2/3 times and like the way he gets stuck into the opposing centre-backs. It seems to unsettled them and they lose some of their organisation and discipline. Miller in particular benefits from this.

The club (and therefore the manager) already know what’s available. We work to an agreed budget. Balance the books with what you’re asking for and you’ll get what you’re asking for. 
iMac knows the drill. 

His budget would have (initially) been set by the old board, the new board may decide to cut that or raise that depending on their calculations / predictions and priorities for the upcoming period. With an interim board, the tragic news the other week and any implications with that, decision may be to go lightly on any budget till things settle

Is david Kelly still at the club? Would have thought bean counting would be essential during January to ensure budget compliance of all the possible ins and outs. 
 

would be a very strange decision for an interim board to have got rid of him at this particular time.

Disco Dave is still here according to this:

Listening to Archie on Jagzone he said they are looking at loans from Premiership clubs but with them having the winter break most are "on holiday" until next week before their various training camps. He did say they expected some activity next week.

If we can offload Miller we free up wages for 3 decent players if the rumours are true. But this is probably his last chance playing at a decent level so I don’t see him leaving soon. Same with Harkins.

Both of them have 6 months left of their (handsome) contracts. I’d imagine if we were to offload them then we’d need to come to some deal over wages as I can’t see a 35 & 40 yr old being offered to much or too long unless a coaching role was added in

No clean sheets in the league at all this season.

I know we need someone else up top but that defence needs gutted. Hopefully McCall can improve it this window.

Not disagreeing in any way but I think the practical and affordable short term solution is defensive mid cover. The added bonus as I see it would mean giving more freedom to Banzo & Cole.

I would love to see Cole playing a little further forward where his considerable talents could impact the game more.
