Enigma Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 Comrie strikes me as a right sided Liam Dick. Serviceable lower-mid championship full back. I’d look elsewhere first. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, much better than Dick. He was our PoTY for many when we were actually a good championship side. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d look elsewhere first. There’s a few things to consider while we look for a RB. What style will Murray use, will he be using wingbacks, or will he have them lie deep? Is Dick really as bad as many say, because I’m not so sure he is. His timing at the back post last year was slightly off, and he missed several goals by a whisker. I suspect he’s less pure wing back than he’s been played, and the runs forward hurt his defence…so a change in style may play more to his strengths. Edited to add: Dick can also play a decent CB role as well as RB, so useful depth regardless. Edited June 4, 2022 by TxRover 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You make some good points Tx, dick is living up to the reputation of kmac who was a very good and popular left back, unless he was roberto Carlos he was always facing a losing battle. He can be half decent at cb and has impressed me there more tbh . I personally don’t think he is great but definitely not the worst. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grumswall Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 Comrie would be a good signing for us. I thought he was one of dunfermlines better players during the covid season. In saying that I doubt we will even be looking at him seing as he's under contract. Dick isn't good enough at lb never mind cb or rb. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t mind Comrie/Berra/Lang/Dick…but I don’t know if Comrie is achievable because he’s still contracted to the Pars, last I heard. But, I know there might be a chance given they will be downsizing the budget. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So no real chance of Comrie coming here and like I said, I doubt he's even on the radar. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I can't imagine he would have a release clause in his contract as I'm sure the Pars, like our good selves in 2016/17, weren't intending to get relegated. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoBNob Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 I reckon Comrie will be away, Todd seems to be first choice now (rightly or wrongly), and with us having three right backs one of them will go to free up wages for somewhere else in the team. MacDonald isn't going because no one will take him, and that leaves Comrie. He's a good player and was fantastic for us at times, however I reckon McPake will juggle the squad so as to reinvest those wages somewhere else. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s the question, are they willing to pay his wages in League One…probably they are, and expecting to return to the Championship next year, but we can dream a bit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ro Sham Bo Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 If, and it's a big if, what Keatings is saying is true then that reflects poorly on McGlynn. Even more so if he ignored the input from our medical staff. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
