Guest Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 13 minutes ago, Reggie Perrin said: I would argue that this system should suit Morrison more than being played wide. His crossing is as good as Hall and McKays defending but his pace through the middle is a real asset though he does need to improve his finishing.

You even said yourself you need to keep your fingers crossed that Dowds doesn’t get injured should have edited that ..... we only have limited cash and it would be better spent on a goalkeeper, central defender and midfielder. Signing DG would cost us a transfer fee plus his wages which I think would be top earner at the club. I'm not convinced that he is needed as long as Dowds keeps fit....as we would be paying a substantial amount for a guy who potentially would be a bench warmer. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilson won't be going anywhere soon unless we pay him off, I don't rate either Ruth or Omperon and obviously Rennie doesn't either. I'm not too keen on Morrison up top either but we need another better than the loans. A young right back wouldn't go a miss given that Miller fills in, centre mid and another centre defender. I'm not surprised a goalkeeper is being touted. We were told we'd spend in this window, defence is the big concern for me as it's as bad as the Hartley one we ended up with Nobody think of a swap deal? They're not the only clubs looking to freshen up a squad, when there's little resources available. Just comes down to you coming out on the better side of a deal, if you can. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebobsboy Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 We'd be lucky to get a bag of footballs in a swap for Wilson. In fact we would probably have to offer him plus cash to get the deal done. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A one year would've been 6 months too long. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully we can maybe put him out on loan to one of those sides . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proudtobeabairn Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 The contracts are supposedly heavily incentivised and based on appearances. That should mean anyone with a 2/3 year deal won't necessarily be here for the full term if they're not featuring in games. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In truth the comment was harsh but fair, we are talking about a player way out of his depth and who should never have been signed. Unfortunately for Wilson nowhere to hide on a football pitch (or forum). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrispPancake Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 I could have I scored a hat trick with that defending and that's not being unfair to AD. Fair play to Morrison for AD's 2nd goal for running across the defenders and pulling them out of position though and for the finish but I'm not giving him any cudos for the 1st and 3rd 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the majority of the season so far Williamson would've been in that position and our striker still prancing about at the edge of the box. Least he was in there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
