I don't know if that was deliberate from McCall but can remember thinking he was actually quite useful and showed more skill/finesse that people give him credit for I'll not comment on his abilities,if you watch Ayr in and around the box last season then you'll see that Adams knows where to go better than most, including the forwards, I'd actually like to see him thrown up front when we're chasing with 10 or 15 to go.

Guest Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 I've probably mentioned this before but both Adams and Gilmour played in our "glorious failure" Scotland U19 Euro final against Spain. They were actually up against Juan Mata, Gerard Pique, Mario Suarez, Javi Garcia, Diego Capel, etc etc. If only things had turned out a little different................

Was Adams with Killie when that was played ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rb123! Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Well i don't want to jinks anything but so far so good and technically speaking we've played the two most 'difficult' teams in the group. Although going by how Clyde done in the first half at Killie tonight i think they could give us a tough game next week, they've also got Goodwillie up front and i'm not sure if he's still much use or not.

We also outnumbered the Dumbarton fans which is pleasing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North Terrace Gazza Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Maybe all the guys who think that McCall was crazy resigning Crawford will finally see the light? He was always going to mature into a fantastic player just needs to find the nets little more and he'll be getting a big move somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, although still not sure what his best position is.Game seems to pass him by in midfield, whereas I'm not convinced he's a winger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Terrace Gazza Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 My main worry was and still is the keeper. The jury is still out, I have faith in the manager but I would have rather gone with a more experienced guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordan Hart played a full season for Annan the season before last and was the best keeper in the league.. I also think he may have had a loan spell previously at Annan while still at Celtic. It's hardly a kid who hasnt played a minute of first team football that we are chucking in. He also hasn't put a foot wrong the three times he's played for us (Edinburgh City, Killie and Dumbarton).

AyrTroopMajor Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 He looked a little shaky last night, but not worth panicking over, goalkeepers can make mistakes. Jordan Pickford had an absolute howler in one of his first few starts with Sunderland last season, but they kept faith with him and he ended up being their POTY, and was then sold for £30m. What Hart needs is for us to show the same faith in him right now rather than panic buy some other jobber just because they happen to have more 'experience'.

diegomarahenry Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 The first thing we have to do is get Crawfords contract extended, he can leave at the end of the year for nowt and he looks like he could be worth more than a development fee over than the coming months, It would be annoying for a player to be at the club from the age of 14 to leave 10 years later for nothing.
