R.R.FC Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 McKay, Bene and Davo have all been fine this season (when not suspended) I’m not seeing the rush to get Mendy back in the team just to see if he’s any good yet. McGlynn sees him in training so will have a good idea of the level he’s currently at. If he’s improved he may get his chance eventually but if McGlynn still doesn’t think he’s ready why take an unnecessary risk? As said above Saturday is against Premier League opposition where we will likely lose by a couple regardless who plays. If we lose 4 or 5 his confidence is permanently ruined. After that we have Montrose and Airdrie, two massive games, no chance I would be gambling by throwing him into that if we don’t have to. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I was thinking of attackers, although I had heard that a certain member of the Raith board was very keen to bring Cal back too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leave him on the bench and use him when he's needed. Nothing to be gained by chucking him in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RaithTheRover Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 The dream is alive for Mendy to smash in a header at The Lolkirk Stadium to guarantee us a top one finish. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brashy's Boots Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 Ross Callachan joining Dundee on loan. Hope McGlynn has a plan B lined up. Not convinced Callachan was even plan A. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CALDERON Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 Mcglynn keeps his cards close though. When we signed Steven Anderson, he'd literally done an interview the day before saying no signings were imminent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raith1974 Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 Why didn't the interviewer ask about potential signings, we wouldn't be given names but might be given an insight to see if we are getting closer to a deal or 2. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hank Scorpio Posted January 16, 2020 Author Share Posted January 16, 2020 Why didn't the interviewer ask about potential signings, we wouldn't be given names but might be given an insight to see if we are getting closer to a deal or 2.You’ve answered your own question. There is no news until they’ve signed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ro Sham Bo Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 Why didn't the interviewer ask about potential signings, we wouldn't be given names but might be given an insight to see if we are getting closer to a deal or 2.Judging by McGlynn's comments in the FFP today we don't seem particularly close to completing any deal. I'll be pleasantly surprised if anyone is in place for the Montrose match.Incidentally, the Falkirk game has been rescheduled for the 3rd of March I see. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R.R.FC Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Sounds from McGlynn’s pre match interview that we were/are in the market for a defender. ‘We were hoping to try and do something else which may have allowed Fernandy to stay out, unfortunately that didn’t materialise so certainly in the meantime, if not till the end of the season, Fernandy will be back here.’ It has been reported well before the set back with Anderson that McGlynn had 2 specific signing targets in mind. If we are now looking at a defensive signing, I wonder if the budget will stretch to all 3 or if one of the positions he was looking at previously will need to be sacrificed? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
