Summer 2021

Now that weve found our third striker tonight (JET) we can now focus on signing our second choice striker.

Not even joking

I'm not sure it's so much a second or third choice striker... it's just a striker who can offer something a bit different that we need. Some games will suit JET alongside Ramirez, whilst other games would suit a more pacey forward who can link up and run in behind. Ramirez is certainly the main man - he's formed a good partnership with JET already, but we need a different type of striker so we can mix it up a bit.

Ach strap yourselves in for the ride. 

Let's just outscore everyone. 

Life's too short to worry about defenders. 

Goals and end to end excitement will get the fans in - much rather with 3-2 whilst going out to attack, than a boring 1-0 McInnes style win. We've scored more in the first 4 games of this season than we managed in about half a season of McInnes.

We're far from perfect but it's great to see us go after teams. 

We'll no doubt have days when it all goes wrong and we get a bit of a doing but it's nice to look forward to watching our games again rather than feeling obliged to endure them.

If we get through to the play off round, with a home crowd, that's enough to pay for Griffiths for a 1 year deal. We need an ambitious 2nd striker,  he would be magic off the bench or as variety to jet.

You won't get any bites from this surely?

No thanks.

Or to put it another way:

Fat, paedo, Tim cunt. 

Put your fishing rod away. 

[Chester Don]

Let’s try and get Liam Lindsay, believe still at Stoke, lindsay and Gallagher at the back would be great.   Even if it’s a loan with an option to buy.  Then another Central Forward

[fine-n-dandy]

Only way I would accept the thumb in would be on loan (to save celtics blushes) but with them paying his wages. 
 

He’s basically downed tools with them for past two seasons (for whatever reasons) & he would only get worse attitude if he came to us. Unless he wanted to prove they fkd up loaning him out.

 

he will likely be loaned to Hibs though.

You believe wrong. 

He signed permanently for Preston in early June for an undisclosed fee, 

But even before then, he was a £3million signing for Stoke. And £3million players command wages that are way beyond our wage structure sadly

Any word it the Ferguson sub? Strange if tactical & not a knock. Even though it worked out if it was tactical

Why would he need to justify it other than it was tactical?

Ferguson got a free ride for too long under Mcinnes. There were loads of games he was toiling or playing crap yet Mcinnes never hooked him. If he wasnt performing as per Glass' instruction or not having a good game, absolutely take him off. No doubting hes one of our best players but he has had some stinkers too.

Glass confirmed all three changes were tactical.

[StandFree1982]

I was concerned that Glass had his favourites, based on him not changing things up between games, but him taking off JET and Ferguson at HT makes me think he will be ruthless when he needs to be, particularly taking Ferguson off. 

He did say that there will be changes for the Livi game, so hopefully we'll see Gallagher in the starting 11, Gurr coming in for Ramsey (give him a break), and Mcgeough getting a start. It would be great if we had some fresh faces coming in, but seeing as it's Friday, I can't see it.

With you on Mcgeough and Gallagher starting (and potentially Mclennan too) - but under no circumstances do i want to see Gurr starting.

Why give Ramsay a break?

I think he's on two bookings now in Europe so the time to give him a break would be next Thursday.

If there’s any chance of us paying a fee it’ll be around £250k max for the likes of Jamie McCart or Connor McCarthy

Has our recruitment team (Mowbray, Glass, Brown, Russell, Apaloo and Cormack) really had enough time together to make an assessment on those players (or similar lesser known scottish based players)?

 

[WesthillWanderersFC]

Well it doesn’t look like we’ll be offloading Ojo, going by his comments in the press today.

Also looks like he isnt too keen on staying beyond the end of his contract.

Was only asking if he’d gotten injured ? ffs

 

also added it was strange if tactical as he was having a decent game. It worked out ok but he normally does a better job in middle than McRorrie so was a gamble keeping him on 

 

all good that Glass has clearly got bigger balls than Mcinnes to make changes

Posts before yours stated Glass confirmed it was tactical. 

McCrorie didnt go into midfield though so what relevance does that have?

I hope some English club comes in with an acceptable offer soon.

Who gives a fk ?‍♂️ I didn’t read back.

Fk him. We paid for him  & could have ended up paying extra all depending on the tribunal so fk any ‘gentlemen’s agreement’ if those cunts aren’t honouring their ‘gentleman’ side by expecting us to accept far less than his value. We are a business after all

I'm sure we did have a gentlemans agreement.

It would have been you can go if we receive an ACCEPTABLE bid.

 

[fine-n-dandy]

I’m sure the offer they got was acceptable. Both parties generally agree in a gentleman’s agreement
