Lang Toun Lad Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Looks like the United fans loved his attitude which is a good sign and thought he was a good player at this level but maybe not quite good enough for the step up. Will be interesting to see how he does next year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ro Sham Bo Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 A couple of comments I found on a Dundalk forum: "Sorry to see Stan go even in a poor team he looked good, think he could have been a great asset in a better environment." Stanton is the only one of the exotic imports I’m sorry to see go. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps more for Spencer until we see him a few games. Anyone seen enough to categorize his preferred role...DM, CM or AM? Knowing that would aide deciding if he’s potentially Tait’s replacement or not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

embow Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 (edited) Surely that should be a maturing and well rounded 27 years old phart? Naw? Ach! please yourself then Edited December 15, 2021 by embow 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High motor and aggressive, but struggles to gain the necessary yard of space to be a clutch end zone receiver... But, more seriously, to answer my own questions... Solid CM, with ability to play a wide mid/wing on the left or AM. Occasional goal threat, but happily beavers away behind the scenes to help the team win. Can play DM or on the right if needed, but has less experience in these roles. Left Phoenix Rising due to lack of play in the US from COVID, not due to underperformance, and went to Ireland to get playing time. Had a knee injury in about 2013-2014 range, but seems healthy enough since. Seems to have a solid CV and a good fit. Strikes me as more of a Spencer style than Tait style (I consider Tait more aggressive and prone to slashing forward or shooting), so while a great signing for our midfield issues, may still leave Arnott to pickup Tait’s aggressive mitre as the season progresses. On an unrelated front...is it just me, of does Stanton look like a young William H Macy with that chin fungus? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSDR 88 Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Some size that new portacabin. What’s the deal with this again, it was mentioned cheap & cheerful hospitality like a pie & pint scenario. Will it be for home fans or just away? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I remember it is sort of an addition to hospitality but as you say, the cheap and cheerful pie and a pint vibe. I would assume it would be open to away fans too but can’t be sure. Looks good tho and will provide some additional revenue 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very much like the Social Media photography. I enjoy that far more than the player action shots (not belittling how important that is) I just like the notion of fans attachment to the club being visible. The number of young fans also gives hope that locally the message is getting through. Good football does that but also the community foundation are smashing that requirement. RaithTV always deliver a high quality video, i’am so thankful for that. When I lived in Leeds it was the highlight of my weekend win lose or draw. Just to see Starks in her splendour. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
