roman_bairn Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 You should have gone to the meetings and get to know them then. Have you joined the FSS? If you do you get a bigger say in the clubs direction and who sits on the Board. You won’t get a better chance. Why do I need them as mates? All I care about is they make the correct decisions.Note, I AM a member of the FSS, a shareholder and I’ve renewed as a Prime season ticket holder for this season having not done so the last couple of years….. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Springfield Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 1 hour ago, Proudtobeabairn said: I agree, I think he'll start with McGinn, Hetherington and Nesbitt in the starting XI. Strikers are the clear priority at the moment. In the same way Yeats did well, Gary Oliver gave the impression of a jersey filler and I think will turn out to be a more of a wasted signing than Yeats or Carroll who both have potential. Don't yet see what he's been brought in to do. Ugwu seems likely so interesting to see whether we go with young loans or another permanent signing up top. Sibbald would still be the dream signing though I suspect McGlynn sees Nesbitt and Morrison as providing the creativity. With all respect if McGlynn think’s Nesbitt & Morrison are the going to provide the creativity, we’re fcked. Morrison has bad attitude in abundance and Nesbitt is a very poor Higginarse. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FFC 1876 Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 Would be pretty disappointing for us to spend all summer looking for strikers capable of getting us out this league only to end up with Morton's front two from last year. I don't think Ugwu's a bad player he's definitely a better option than Oliver but he's not exactly a goalscorer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fundamentally, there are still zero goals and very little creativity in the squad. Unless those issues are addressed, the playoffs will be a stretch Imo despite the improvements in defence. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 Decent goalscorers in L1 are a real rarity. When your are in our situation of desperately in need of two never mind one, you tend to end up with someone from the Championship who scores less than 10 goals in a season, and isn’t considered good enough, or you get someone who has scored less than less (a lot less) than 20 in L2 or even the lowlands league. Anyone in L2 who scores more than 18 or so tends to get an instant upgrade to the Championship. However he does it, McGlynn is probably going to have to be seriously inventive and put together a combination that just clicks, and that no-one has considered before. It isn’t going to be easy, that’s for sure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not my job and as I said one can hope that they can do a McManus and find goals come easy a league below. If Ugwu is signed, I do feel we need a gamble youthful loan striker to come good, it's obvious we won't be signing a proven goalscorer where we are. Just researched Ugwu and seen he scored 7 in 9 league starts for Dunfermline in league one in 2014 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only really remembered for grabbing the ball off Michael Moffat to take a penalty and then missing in a game that finished 0-0 until he pitched up at the Rovers a few years later. Should definitely do a job at this level but how many times have people said that in the past 3/4 years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 I think 3 of those were a hat trick against Stirling. Last season he showed he's still a huge physical presence, if a team can exploit that as effectively as possible he'll be a stand out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure it’s been said before, a shites a shite no matter how you dress it up. Unfortunately we’ve assembled a large pile of shite and our only hope is for McGlynn & Smith to pull off some sort of miracle. Off for an extended break to a country where soccer is played, hoping to see a new RB, one box attacking MF and two CFs in start of our league campaign 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ecosse83 Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 (edited) It’s a good thing there is still 3 and a half weeks until the first league game. The way some are talking on here the league kicks off tomorrow! Still plenty of time for Mcglynn to do some business Edited July 5, 2022 by Ecosse83 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NavyBlueArmy1876 Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 I dont think it's an attitude to football problem with Morrison tbf. Keeps himself fit and trains well. He just seems to get frustrated on the park, largely due to having to play in our shite team and who can blame him? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
