Bairn in Exile Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 6 minutes ago, Chinatoon Bairn said: Don't actually think Sammut was anywhere near the worst of that lot however the expectation put on him by announcing him as Chelsea's U23 Europa League winning captain or whatever it was made it seem that way. This. While most of the players that close season turned up as relative unknowns, the players that disappointed most for me were the 3 who signed on with the word “International” after their name – Petravicius, Froxylias and Sammut. I thought that gave them a bit of a pedigree when in actual fact they were all just dugmeat. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Caractacus Potts Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 (edited) If we’re talking value for money, would Griffiths not be up there? Didn’t look that bad on the ball but totally unfit, didn’t match the wages and scored less goals than Ruth.

Ranaldo Bairn Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Petravicius was a star when you consider what he produced compared to the rest of them. I don't recall Sammut doing anything of value, ever. The games just passed him by. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too many of them that season were similar ilk of Sammut in not playing men's football, the rest were average at best or wasters. Froxy clearly spent his signing on fee on enjoying life, clearly so unfit. The fact we actually paid money for TOE and Dylan Mackin is bewildering. I'm sure Dan Turner was on loan with view to buy but we sent him back very early to port vale where he couldn't play. It's pleasing to see Hartley in a mess currently at Hartlepool. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donathan Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 The worst thing about that Hartley bunch is quite a few of them have gone on to have much better careers than we’d have ever expected. It’s almost as if being emotionally bullied by the manager every day isn’t the best way to get the best out of the team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donathan Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Brough and Dallison both regulars for English league two sides, for example. Dennon Lewis is at Boreham Wood, but was linked with a move to English championship clubs a couple of years ago after a decent scoring run at Wealdstone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John has signed 12 new players to add to 14 already here from last season, with one player leaving. A squad-size of 25 should be sufficient, however it’s still possible that we’ll see further movement if players move out as well as in. A squad that size would be sufficient if it didn't comprise of more than a few players who are not good enough and kids. Christ we haven't even got a back up "proper" right back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of them were shite players but he also turned out to be a shite person that caused a lot of unnecessary trouble for our club and supporters!! Even worse was ex employees and ex directors at the club believing his accusations along with Keith Hogg having banning orders ready to be sent out before anything was proven. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure I’d count English League Two as much better than the Scottish Championship to be honest. England has some of the most hyped up leagues in Europe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maverick_- Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Gets me every time when people try to put Petravivious in the same category as the likes of Lewis, Haber and Fasan. For me he was our best player that season due to the fact that he was a trier and had genuine pace. Only slight form of excitement in that team anyway. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine we'll sell a lot on Saturday given it's physical tickets only. We sold out our allocation at Tannadice a few years ago (1500) though that was at the QF stage. Fasan was probably the pick of the shite in terms of Hartley's shower of losers, closely followed by Mackin, Sammut and Haber. Pars getting their tickets on sale early eh, must be desperate to pump some navy blue pound in before the window shuts 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
