18BAIRN76 Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 I repeat, I find it hard to put into words how embarrassing I find it that the Goodwillie stuff appears to have an element of truth to it. The fact he is even being considered by those at the club is an absolute fucking riddy. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blabbing about these dealings only puts the backs up of the clubs FFC is negotiating with. It is not the way to do business and loses trust and respect. Can you imagine if the boot was on the other foot. There’s an obvious reason this stuff is being deliberately leaked by people who are against the signing…. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really sure, some will be on higher than that, if Dowds is going to keep putting goals away then I'd like to think we could offer him a FT wage which would entice him to stay FT. If he could get a good paying job outside of football then he might want to go PT but who knows. Wouldn't bother about responding to Andreas btw he's a Fucking goon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any striker worth their salt should be getting 15 to 20 at champ level pretty comfortably. He looks like one of those guys whose not entirely sure what he's going to do with the ball never mind the defender. His record above the Isthmian premier is very poor. Championship bottom of the top flight seems about his level. His goal scoring record is definitely poor but I think he is going to end up getting a half decent move at some point. Reminds a new a little bit of the guy Icqpeazu (sp?) at Hearts who is still playing in the Championship down south. I would take Nouble at Kilmarnock as someone who would be a totally different option. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 3 minutes ago, roman_bairn said: Incredibly naïve board we have if true… Two concerns. If we don’t sign the guy, then we will have a few banging on about “there was definitely an offer” but it was rejected. Secondly, great as yesterday was, that woeful Dumbarton side scored two, and missed three, maybe four excellent chances. Our defence still has two players nowhere near good enough for a side seeking to get out of this league, and is desperately in need of midfield muscle. The ease with which the current midfield is brushed aside makes it easy for sides to get into our back three…….and as mentioned, two of the three just aren’t dependable enough. My concern is that Rennie can’t make the changes quickly enough. We shall see. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PedroMoutinho Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 From looking at Dowds’ LinkedIn, it seems he had a good career going before going full time, so he may want to pursue that alongside part time football. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon though he'd only go part time if that was his only choice and that won't be the case. At 25 he'd want to have given it a good shot before returning to part time later in his career. I'd expect him to be playing full time somewhere next season but who knows where. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the reason we won't sign him is because we won't be able to afford the fee, as much as anything else. If Clyde are looking for upwards of 50k then he won't be signing for us, especially when we are in need of a couple of centre halves and central mids aswell. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he couldn't score a barrowload up front for you with Burke sticking the ball on his napper there would surely be something far wrong.I was amazed ikpeaza got a move to Boro. He was honking at hearts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think a striker is our main priority now funnily enough. Id prefer we got replacements for Mackay, hall and miller. They are all liable to hand a goal to the opposition at any time . Yesterday it was miller's embarrassing effort at the edge of the box which gave Dumbarton a slither of hope. Sort out that and I think we'll score goals ok. Another striker wouldn't go a miss but other areas should be the priority. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bairn88 Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 As poor as our attacking return has been it’s the defence that is by far the biggest riddy. 30 goals conceded in 19 games is a joke and will stop us winning games second half of the season. 1st season in this division with Durnan and Buchanan we were solid as a rock. That’s how average you have to be in this league to defensively do fine 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PedroMoutinho Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 Apparently Rennie is looking to bring in a goalkeeper as well so maybe a sign that Mutch will be out longer term. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
