King Street Loon Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 I liked his rugby tackle on the guy with about 15mins left, for which he got a yellow. I only saw the last 25 mins, but he seemed to be comfortable enough, and having seeing the goal, caught between who to mark. Be interesting to see how he goes as the season progresses, but he'll not be at Forest for long and we'll make some decent cash on him. Link to comment

Left with a 2 on 1 due to his CB partner drifting towards the ball, he had to choose one of the strikers to pick up. He chose the one, which certainly appeared to be in the most threatening position. A fact that seemed to drift way over the co-commentator's head. Link to comment

Be that for positive or negative reasons. 4 year deal but I think he’ll be there two seasons at most for whichever reason. Hit snooze button on him until then 2 Link to comment

RUL Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 I thought he had a decent game but I also think he was at fault for the goal. It was actually a bit like the goal we lost on Thursday where Considine left his man to mark space instead and his man got the space and scored, albeit in Huddersfield case it was actually a very good individual goal. Forest were rotten and Huddersfield weren't much better I thought, very poor quality game, can't tell me that's a better standard than say Hibs V Aberdeen. Link to comment
Yorston Vasey Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 If Villa stay up then they could be back in for him again. Link to comment
Zeus Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 Seems he had a decent debut. Hopefully goes on and makes us some decent cash. A lot of huns seem a wee bit obsessed with the transfer. Strange bunch. Link to comment

McKenna went with the main danger, he'd have looked so stupid if he let the player he followed go by himself if the ball was put across the face of the goal. left back and midfielder, number 11 were horrendous for the goal, goalkeepers positioning was off and number 24 was going to where the ball was coming from which he didn't need to do as two players were already there. Overall McKenna breezed through that match, he looks very comfortable on the ball and barring one really poor pass his distribution was very good, given that he only joined up the the team a few days before it was a very promising debut. 1 1 Link to comment

From what I did see of the game I agree with that. Link to comment

Captained the Dons to our only trophy in 25 years, we received a large fee for him when we was in financial dire straits, he donated his signing on fee to Aberdeen youth development and even managed to score more goals playing for the Dons at centre back than your futsal idol zero. 1 6 1 Link to comment

Fridge Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 Maybe but Cadger was a great servant to the club ( local loun - see Considine) through times when we were fucking shite. Never made it down south due to injuries but he is the last captain to lift a trophy for us. Time will tell on McKenna. 1 Link to comment

Ten Caat Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 No one is claiming Cadger was a world beater. But when you had utter shite like Phil McGuire, Diamond and Whyte all playing around the same time as him....you appreciate his efforts just a tad more. Plus he had the club at heart ana.

Simply Red Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 Anderson turned into a great CH for us. Unlucky with his move south. Worked out well for us tho. Great servant for us. Not sure id regard him as a legend tho. Brian Irvine was a better CH. Ive never heard anyone call him a legend. Link to comment
