palmy_cammy Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 If McShane is the answer I dread to think what the question is.Such was his ability to disappear in games, he could have signed last season for all I know. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fae_the_'briggs Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 Dom Thomas signing for Kilmarnock apparently so no need to fret which wing he will be playing on for us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
die hard doonhamer Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 Of the 5 players that left that summer (and I'm aware that Danny has since returned), McShane is comfortably the first one I'd have back if given the chance. He is exactly what we need in the middle of the park. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fae_the_'briggs Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 I'm aware it's still pure speculation regarding McShane's return but the very thought of him and Rankin in the middle of our midfield sends a shiver down my spine, and not in a good feeling sort of way. Hopefully he will have gained some valuable experience in his time with The Staggies. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

palmy_cammy Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 Holt, Durnan and Reilly would all walk straight back into our starting XI. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rjc-1988 Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 McShane is a player who has always divided fan opinion. In the McIntyre first season I thought he was fortunate to get so many starts but in his final season he was one of the main reasons that we played such good football that year. Some fans raved about Kyle Hutton which frankly I found astonishing so it is all about different opinions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McShane certainly came onto a game for us, but by the time his move came, he'd gone off the boil a bit again. By then though, he'd definitely won a lot of us over. We've struggled in midfield since. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By then though, he'd definitely won a lot of us over. We've struggled in midfield since. Our central midfield was generally strong when we had McKenna, Burns, and McShane giving good competition in there. In the last couple of seasons we have really struggled in that area and without a new face in there I regrettably think that this weakness will hold us back and prevent us getting the best out of Dobbie. I haven't seen Akubine but I understand that he has impressed. If so it would be great to see a Dev player coming through. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawk Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 If and it's a big if McShane were to sign I'd play him in the middle along with Jacobs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on..... That's a major blow to Queens . Christine will be a big miss to the club . We've not exactly got loads of volunteers who'll give up their spare time to help the club out I'm slightly worried about this . I could be completely wrong but something doesn't appear to be right !!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If McShane was such a big passenger it is surprising that we finished 4th twice in two ultra competitive league set ups.Not only that we passed the ball really well and were able to go to places like Tynecastle and Ibrox and actually try and win the game without every man deep in our own half defending for our lives for 90 mins.Whatever the opinion on McShane is since his departure our midfield has been by far the weakest area of our team packed full of endeavour but little guile and ball retention. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed they would, but I don't think any would have as big an effect on the performances as McShane would. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Signing a 3 year deal... so don't think they've loaned him to a rival? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
