RRFC_Liam Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 (edited) That’s Tumilty signed for Hartlepool wish the lad nothing but the best and I hope he smashes it down there Edited June 21, 2022 by RRFC_Liam 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pub car king Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 Interesting to see how he gets on. He has a fantastic engine but he'll need good cover for when he goes forward as better players will exploit the gap he leaves. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We lost Riley Snow okay no loss, Ben Williamson and we have to remember that McGlynn wanted to convert Musonda into a defensive midfielder. Although I would love to see us sign players we have to have faith that Murray is looking for the right players and will sign a couple of centre halfs, it may just take time. My concern is more in the striking department if Vaughan isn't fit. McGlynn struggled last season, other clubs look like they are struggling and we are rumoured to no one. There appears a distinct lack of decent strikers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pantene proV Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 I only thought Frankie was decent when we watched him on the streams every week. When we could actually see him in the flesh he had about 2 good games (away v Hamilton 3-0 for example), a few 'mares (Arbroath away 1-1 for example), but overwhelmingly meh. Not worth much regret AFAIC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovers1992/1993 Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 Aye, I think this is probably what has happened as well. We’ve offered something which neither of them were willing to accept, which is fine, but with the added caveat that we have to adequately replace them. That’s the the tough part. Murray said in an interview last week that he hadn’t even spoke to Musonda or Tumilty. Both players weren’t offered anything. In Tumilty’s case, he had already said that he was not wanting to stay at us. Musonda had expressed a desire that he may want to explore other options as well but that to improve, we’d need to see changes anyway 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tumilty on the other hand seemed very keen to move on, which is absolutely fair enough and I wish them all well. Regardless, we’ll probably never know, but hopefully we can replace them all with adequate reinforcements. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to be annoyed by his comments but it's a fair point that playing teams at least 4 times a season is a bit boring. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Been going too long Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 (edited) Players will be on trial up and down the country and maybe hoping for a move to spl but then need to look at the championship, expect things to pick up soon but it is frustrating tbh as we were used to our business done early with Mcglynn .Murray is probably taking this time to give the players we have every chance but as a minimum we need a centre forward and a centre back Edited June 21, 2022 by Been going too long 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interested to see how he gets through the wind and rain at Cove later in the season. Fair play to him though, he looks about 10 years younger. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ro Sham Bo Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 It would be more worrying if everyone else was making signings but pretty much everyone is in the same boat it seems. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pub car king Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 I think the defence is more important than the strikers at the minute. We did not finish 5th last year due to a lack of goals, it was because we continued let them in at the back. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basher brash Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 I would rather Murray sign the right player not just signing someone for the sake of it to appease the fans, Looking at other teams in the league I’m not worried one little bit regarding signings so far in fact we are on par with any other team in the league. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RRFC_Liam Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 I think Murray is looking down south or abroad for strikers as there’s a limited pool up here that is good enough and most play in the premiership or already been snapped up……… as for CHs I think he will get 2 permanent ones in but also there’s limited amount up here that is good enough 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure since Brexit the red tape and hoops you have to jump through is crazy. Looking down south is all well and good but you're then asking a player to relocate and might want their digs covered, something we were doing for Musonda I believe. That's a big expense on top of a monthly wage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Been going too long Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 Due to any lack of decent rumours I had a look at who was freed in spl, I think we should have a look at Liam Fontaine , yeah he is old but very experienced and played over 30 games for Dundee last year, can’t rely on Berra every week plus he is a coach as well now, Jamie mccart is out of contract at st Johnstone might be worth a shout, up top nadir Ciftci is free. I think we should get matej back if he is open to it as for a smaller guy he lead the line well and we need someone like that not a second striker imo 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
