TxRover Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 53 minutes ago, San Starko Rover said: Surely we’re bringing someone in if we’re loaning Keatings out. At the very least I’d expect a loan until January with option to extend it if Keatings isn’t brought back. Can’t see us running with only two strikers with Vaughan out long term. I’d be very surprised if we haven’t someone incoming, Gullan is probably the obvious one to speculate but if Hibs loan him again he’s surely not going to make it there. Strange statement but I’ll wait and see what happens next few days. We definitely need someone to boost the numbers but we could really do with a goal scorer as we’re lacking up top and Dario can’t score them all for us. Reality is we have 3 or 4 CF right now..Varian, Poplatnik, Mitchell and Zanatta. Yes, Zanatta has played mainly at wing for a while, but he came into the league playing both wings and CF. We also have Mahady loaned out to Cowdenbeath. With Poplatnik here until January and Mahady due back then, I can see us running without replacing Keatings, who has played very few minutes so far. Is it smart, that’s another discussion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely isn’t smart and very unfair on Mitchell as he has little first team experience, if Dario is used up front we need another wide player in. We have keatings on a 2 year contract ffs What an absolute disaster from the club 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raith_Raver Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 These Raith TV interviews are clearly staged, with rehearsals done beforehand to decide what to include - how often do you hear "as I spoke to you about earlier" type of comment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mahady is at Cowdenbeath for a reason and if he does come back in January it wont be to slot into the team 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously Mahady who has hardly kicked a ball for one of the worst teams in Scottish Senior football. Zanatta who is a winger and McGlynn who wants 3 wingers on his books. Poplatnik who doesn't look like he'll score many and Mitchell who is nothing more then a promising untried youngster. Maybe Jamie Gullan on loan is an option as he can play out on the left and through the middle or perhaps someone like a Keatings who is currently sitting on a bench of a Premier league team and getting no or little game time. Oh wait Jamie Gullan comes to mind. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, but that's just plain daft. Gullan's the answer, not moving Zanatta. And please stop going on and on and on about 17 and 18 year olds as if they're the finished article. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hank Scorpio Posted September 22, 2021 Author Share Posted September 22, 2021 I’d like us to sign Gullan, not because I think he’d be right; purely because it would stop everyone talking about it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALDERON Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 It's just a dreadfully worded statement. It's a bizarre choice of words, and totally contradictory to imply somebodies body isn't up to playing football matches yet, so we are sending him out to play football matches. I get that the club are probably trying to be more open to the fans, but I just wish somebody read those thing before hitting "post". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirJimmyofNic Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 My guess is we'll be signing Gullan in January once Hibs have got themselves another striker, but again is he the answer to our scoring woes, as far as youth players that are on our books we need better quality than what they can offer at the moment, 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grumswall Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 I honestly want us to sign gullan, despite not rating him that highly, just to see an end to the "announce gullan" posts on 99% of anything that is posted on social media by the club. I'm still not even sure what his best position is. Arguably it's where zannata plays, so why would we bring in someone to displace our only attacking threat? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
