gav-ffc Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Quote Former Dunfermline and Falkirk winger Myles Hippolyte is being linked with a shock move to the English Championship. Wild if true he’s currently in the non league with Yeovil. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagfox Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Nice lad. Didn't play much and prone to the odd mistake when he did. Good luck to him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BudBairn Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 What’s the deal with the lazy signing chat?Do we really want another unknown quantity at this point in the campaign?At least the player is known and hopefully can be coached back to the player he was previously.Give him a chance. 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long Suffering Bairn Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Happy to give the guy a chance. We are in what amounts to the third division, expected to have signed an old partially mobile journeyman in that position. At least being young he will hopefully have a bit of energy and ambition about him. Good thing about having decent quality defender and striker as managers is I trust them to have more accurate opinion of a player than a bog standard manager. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetalWolf Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 (edited) Give the lad a go, I'm glad we're looking at younger players and not just adding "experience". If he's played on the left side of defence beside Dixon, hopefully he will keep him right (in the way cracks and dodds did from CB). I'm not as convinced with Buchannan in that kind of mentoring role.... but we'll see. Edited January 8, 2020 by MetalWolf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RabC73 Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Speculation that Falkirk keeper Robbie Mutch has got a few clubs down south looking to bid for him. Preston, Swansea and Middlesbrough have all had him scouted at TFS. He’s made 15 appearances this season and took the number 1 off of Cammy Bell. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VladimirMooc Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 I thought he looked brutal in his few chances with us. Slow and cumbersome, but might do a job in League One against the haddies you’re up against. Pretty telling that he didn’t really get a sniff under McCall even though our defence has generally been dire. Da Vita and Hall, though? I don’t suppose we can interest you in any of the other donkeys that Caldwell has lumbered us with? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These attributes are badly needed and you never know if he does well it could be the making of players around him. More importantly its a young player motivated to do well as his career is at stake at this level. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reid Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Right profile at last. Left sided with some pace hopefully.He’a right sided. He looked okay when I seen him but 2 if those games were against Rangers Colts and Clyde’s development team. The other he gave away the ball and let an Ayr player to take a free run at goal and score. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R&Y99 Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 He should be a decent signing for you. He’s honestly not a bad player but just never managed to nail down a place. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Christ, this is all getting perilously close to the curse of “should be able to do a job at this level”.Can’t slag the laddie off, but I think we all have sound reasons to not get too excited at this point in time. It’s not so unusual for an unknown to be the one that turns a side’s fortunes around. That’s all we can hope for at this point in time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BairnBrainBrian Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Good luck to the new laddie. If he is struggling a little at Championship level then having the rest of the season in this shitty league could well do wonders for his confidence. He is not going to be challenged by wave after wave of attacks so it is an ideal chance for him to get some experience. If he doesnt cope well in our defence then maybe professional football is not for him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sanity check needed. Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Least he is young and maybe feels he has a point to prove, surely can't be as bad as Durnan and Buchanan. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
