That's essentially why he's at Dundee United rather than playing in the top flight. More money and a longer term deal. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gav-ffc Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Underwhelming but that sums up the club in general at the moment so get what we deserve for falling so low. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Far from hanging my hat on this guy but I am willing to wager that De Vita brings WAY more to our season that shitehouse Telfer for example 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More money and a longer term deal. Ian McCall has claimed his deal at United is beyond what the Edinburgh clubs/Aberdeen could afford. Which suggests those clubs moved for him but he chose the money at United. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because it's exactly the kind of lazy, journeyman, old pals act type signing that the likes of Houston and McKinnon would have been absolutely slaughtered for. And I think a fair proportion of the support have had enough of them. Personally I'd rather sign no-one than a 32-year old coming off a serious injury who supporters of his previous club say can "barely move". Think there were other areas of the team crying out for improvement. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think there were other areas of the team crying out for improvement.I guess I am in the minority in seeing it as not quite as bad as whats gone before. Although, as I said firstly, I hope the Gomis effect plays because the Partick fans assessment of him is worrying. I am also operating under what may be a hopeful delusion that we will be signing quite a few this window. If De Vita turns out to be one of only 2 or three signings, and Mark Durnan starts the rest of the season then I will have to agree with your last point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
18BAIRN76 Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Can't wait for Tidser to be shipped out only for his wage to spent on a couple of jobbers who either McCracken or Miller are pals with. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Where’s Tidser away to then? We’re needing a midfielder to replace Kerr but he seems to have been pretty underwhelming for you guys. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although generally cash is the main factor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
champions Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 (edited) Still hoping we'll pull a rabbit out the hat, but realistically what players of 'quality' could we attract who would a) drop to this level b) whose club would allow them to leave in january and c) can afford?

Russ Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Very, very meh signing. Actually a wee bit disappointed we’ve wasted a loan on him tae rather than able to get him in on a free until the end of the season.I suppose the positive is that it’s not Billy King. Or Fraser Aird. But still just meh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope he doesnt get another gig. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
