ebobsboy Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 Can't help but think this is last throw of the dice by McKinnon to save his neck. It's a bad throw though because this signing wasn't what was required. As others have alluded to width n pace was what was required.

Well, then it’s traveling to see Ray and John fight for the honor of putting together to worse team from their respective bin heap, or staying home and seeing how badly you can f’up putting together a Regissör or a Malsjö, eh? Meanwhile, I’m laughing my ass off at this signing. Do us a favor and knock us out Saturday so we can stop worrying about this crap. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not how it works m8, you'll just have had more people putting money on you to win, likely based on the fact Championship sides dont take it too seriously, and you're spending a fortune on your side. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He might be past his best but at least he has a proven goal scoring record. How many times have we signed strikers in the past few season who have barely scored any goals at all in the career? He's only 30 and his track record is in Ireland I hope he does fit in well and find the Irish form he hasn't so far, I'd have been happier with this signing if it was instead of Johnstone but that's us got 6 players who can play striker. We have gone from having a small squad to having one of the most unbalanced squads I've seen since the Yogi ochilview season. 11 hours ago, Bainsfordbairn said: I think the football budget has been a mess from day one. From the time it took to get one in place, to initially having the funds for only a squad of 17, to then being given additional money on a piecemeal basis months afterwards. This latest cash was only made available after the transfer window closed. It can't be easy to plan a squad of players when the goalposts keep changing every five minutes. Let's not forget that the 17 man squad was made up generally of championship players who are probably still on championship wages, some of which on above average championship wages. I don't think we can point fingers at the board re budget, Ray was given biggest budget in the league, which he had choose to spend which has been increased due to season ticket sales being greater than they had budgeted for. The finger pointing is keeping a manager who is a serial failure to piss the budget against the wall, so that they can keep face whilst they still remain Edited September 5, 2019 by MrDust 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We made 8 changes in the first game, I'm expecting us to make less tomorrow due to Ray being under pressure to deliver. Bookies can be erratic regarding odds outside the top league on league business but if you are betting on the teacake cup winners, then you have a betting problem. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shodwall cat Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 I reckon he'll score goals at this level if given the chance to do so. Just very worrying that mckinnon sees finishing off chances as our biggest issue when its creating the bloomin chances in the first place thats the big problem. Mckinnon like gerrard at sevco has pressed the panic button and just started signing any half decent player available in the hope that he'll get lucky no matter if that player is really needed or not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radford Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 13 hours ago, MrDust said: For a 30yr old, McMillan hasnt played a lot of football... Those stats that Falkirk published were wrong. He started over 120 games for Dundalk in his 3 or 4 years there and scored over 70 goals. I saw every game he played for Saints and I'm still not sure what type of player he is, or certainly what his strengths are. His career in Perth is done but will watch with interest to see how he does with the Bairns. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
