Sent a picture to a mate who's a Townie and he said it didn't look like him. None of the trialists looked anything like him!,,,, if Hendry stays injury free I can’t see it being long before he is snapped up if he continues to play the way he is. Far too good for this level Edited July 9, 2019 by spot on 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raithie Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Lets get away from who the trialists were and get onto more important matters which are.... Scary Bear’s Mrs finally let him go to the football.

Then again JMcG is held in high esteem at Parkhead. Have to say though after having witnessed the kickings dished out to Vaughan and Dingwall last season unless the 16 years old has grown a foot taller and been hitting the gym all summer then if I were youth team management at Celtic I'd doubt I be risking him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zen Archer (Raconteur) Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Ross Munro has a new obvious nickname, the players at the back calling him Geordie the entire first half. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ex Machina Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Who played right back this evening, chaps? Miller in the first half, Watson in the second. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raith Against The Machine Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Miller in the first half, Watson in the second.Cheers. I was pleased when we signed Miller, but I was growing a little concerned that McGlynn was using him in midfield instead. Very happy to hear he used proper fullbacks for the full 90 tonight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grumswall Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Could be a worry if macdonald picks up an injury but other than lb were pretty well covered everywhere else. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.Reeee Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 (edited) 5 minutes ago, Scottydog said: Better than McDonald? McDonald hasn't convinced me going forward to be honest. The way the team has been set out throughout the friendlies looks like we are expecting the full backs to push on and the lad only made a 20 min appearance about seemed quicker and more willing to overlap and deliver crosses. Don't get me wrong I actually prefer McDonald to Crane as he was suspect going forward and at the back where as McDonald at least looks to be positionally aware and able to tackle.

Roath Raver Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 As it is friendlies I don't have to wait until midnight to post the highlights, so here you go. Also, the Saturday game highlights will be up on Sunday afternoon. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brashy's Boots Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 Better than McDonald?Didn't see him doing much defending, because of the stage of the game and us being on top, but he was quick, always looking to overlap and if anything, too keen to do so. Possibly left his position exposed by pushing on so much. But I wish we'd seen him earlier. Definitely promising and as someone has already said, LB is a position we don't have a lot of cover for. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WSDR 88 Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 I had it in my head that Faissal El Bakhtaoui was a really tall lad, according to the web he's only 5'10". I though we'd be looking for a bigger guy as a target man but hey, if he can find the net (something he's not been too good at since his 1st spell at the dark side). Not wanting to compare every guy that comes in to Nisbet who was 6'1" but...According to the net, Allen is 6’ 2”. I think because he’s a stocky unit, opposed to lean unit in Nisbet, he appears shorter. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoBNob Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 That's absolutely, unequivocally not Faiss. If nothing else I think he's still in France. Oh and he's probably not a left back, after his last spell though I don't know if he's a striker either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
