GordonD Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Does Goodwillie's contract say he has to be employed to play football? If not, and you're going to have to pay him anyway, get him to clean the toilets and sweep up the stands. Might as well get something for the money. And you never know, he might get fed up and walk away, in which case it's him that has broken the contract. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems a bit counter productive. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Priority 1 is get Goodwillie off the list of employees after that everything else is secondary. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ro Sham Bo Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 I wonder if we could see Dick moved into left centre back and Mackie in at Left wingback. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything I think it'd be the other way around given Mackie's physicality, but no, I think that's a like-for-like "competition for places" signing. I'm very pleased about it (and not just because I called it a month ago). Liam Dick has been the poorest regular starter over the course of the season, and we've suffered for not having any kind of natural replacement. I daresay he's had to play with knocks and had to tough it out through poor form too when others have been rested in the same circumstances, so it might well lift his contributions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grumswall Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Good signing on paper. Dick hasn't been great but steady enough. Hopefully mackie can live up to his original hype he had when we sold him to hibs here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't realise that Mackie could also play centre back so I suspect you're correct. Glad we've gotten an extra body in because with Lang out and Berra missing games recently we have suddenly become light at the back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carrying injuries but out of contract in the summer, maybe worth a punt if the purse isn't emptied 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know that he necessarily has played centre back, but I think he's more likely to fit in there than Liam Dick. He's hardly played any football at all recently, to be fair. Big ask for him to hit the ground running. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grumswall Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Carrying injuries but out of contract in the summer, maybe worth a punt if the purse isn't emptiedThis loan will at least give us a chance to see what he's like now. I must admit, I'm a little shocked that we're making any signings now, but it's a welcome one for a position we're weak in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's out of contract in the summer, Hibs have absolutely no use for him, and he's barely featured so it's unlikely he's on anyone else's radar. If we're only covering the first tenner in his pay packet it's a tenner Hibs don't have otherwise. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
