I’m sorry for being fucking raging at signing another bang average bloody player! The acceptance among our support is frightening.

We’re well and truly fucked IMO I'm astounded you can call someone a bang average player having only seen them 3 times but at the same time can't given an opinion on who was a good player in those 3 games.

If you want one of them we are fishing in the East/West of Scotland leagues and asking them to play 3/4 levels above themselves and hit the ground running. Have a bit of realism.

I do have realism, signing a striker from a team that finished below us that barely scored worries me though 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who is a realistic striker we could sign that these guys would be happy with The only real options up here for a physical striker I can see were Innes Cameron, Tommy Goss, Todorov, Ouzy See and Ross MacIver. Obviously that could change as the season gets closer and players fall out of favour but it's slim pickings in our position. There's always the chance you could bring in a unknown player from down south but look at how Francis & Ompreon turned out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure mate, there will be loads of options come up in the next month or so it’s not even June yet. There might have been the option of a decent loan coming in from a team higher up. If Mcglynn plays him up front himself next season we’re done already! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan-FFC Posted May 26, 2023 Share Posted May 26, 2023 I’m no going to say all (I’ve seen some of the messages left on the signing announcement yday which were out of order) but the vast majority of us want all our signings to do well. it’s surely perfectly normal though when the previous record isn’t all that great, the team we took him from aren’t too fussed to be sceptical and we had/have a striker who scored more and done the same job and he was slated all season. our strike force (as it stands) is MacIver, Allan & Oliver. Do you think that wins us the league? I’m no sure. I’d love to be wrong, in fact hope I am. I wish the boy the best, hope he finds his feet quickly and he can develop into a sellable asset. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PedroMoutinho Posted May 26, 2023 Share Posted May 26, 2023 (edited) Sorry, this idea that you can’t criticise a signing because we “can’t attract better options” is ludicrous. Maciver is 24 and has been full time at 3 clubs, so there is a record there to look at. He is not a player fresh from academy football or getting a first opportunity to go full time. I can see nothing in his record at Alloa or previous clubs to suggest he has the ability to be part of a title winning side. Further signings will need to add real quality to the starting 11 in my view or it will be playoffs at best.
