That should impress him, and you need a center half…he is still free. Robbie Leitch & Akeel Fracis scudded him in the season friendly between our lot last season.

I've lost track of the amount of guys I've worked with who are first in the office, last out, sending emails at stupid hours, but they deliver less than the 9-5 people. I have seen nothing from him since he arrived to convince me about him. even the q&a he looked totally disinterested slumped in his chair and was nippy and arrogant with Lewis's questions. I get what the board are saying about dof roles in football now, but for me it should be looked at in the championship and someone else 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Peter LaFleur Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 (edited) Really glad Holt’s working tirelessly to bring in guys like Wilson and Robertson on trial. Edited June 27, 2021 by Peter LaFleur 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats why I said on the face. Some of our signings the last few years have looked like great deals and turned out to be dug meat. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It used to be just one or two clowns making shit signings. We now have a whole committee worth of people signing shit players because they meet this mystical player profile. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maverick_- Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 One thing that got me with the Q&A was the constant banging on about the new scouting and recruitment system. If it’s so good and groundbreaking then why are we signing the exact type of player that has shafted us for the last 2 seasons. Barely professional jobbers who are clinging on to pro football. The board are so hopeless and Holt is the tip of the iceberg. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think because the Board lack football knowledge (their own admission) they think the rest of us are falling for all the drivel Holt spouts 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly the type of junior footballer we should have been scouting for years, just wished we'd had him last season. Soccerbase has him playing zero games for Rothes and scoring 19 goals. He must be good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Sheering should cast an eye as most of their fans don’t think they will be able to hold on to him! Even as a squad player he would be a better option than some of those proposed on here and his ration of goals to games is just what Gary Holt says isn’t easy to find ! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadwell Dog Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 The fact that Holt has been in post for over 6 months and still hasn't found us a striker despite all this pre contracts,super scouting and player profiling . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebobsboy Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 He didn't like Lewis point on Tiffoney because he knew it was a valid point and Tiffoney is exactly the type we should have signed.

Yea, and you pumped us six nil, but that didn’t mean much at the end. I’m kidding about Nando, somewhat…but I do think he’d do the job in League One or Two for someone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
