frankthetank22 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 27 minutes ago, Rcfc fan said: It’s mental we released Sean Kelly and Richard foster either of those two are better options than what we currently posses I was no Sean Kelly fan, my many posts about him within match threads is proof of that but the fact was, Kelly WAS improving and was looking more than semi competent at left back in his last few months. He would have been well worth a one year deal, surely he wasn't on a big wage. Foster may have been on a larger packet (I honestly don't know, I'm sure some Random Saint Johnstone fan could inform us) and he wasn't going to get any quicker but again the decision to let him go is a decision that has (quite predictably at the time too) come back to haunt us. Foster was steady, a 6 out of 10 player. Whoever took the decision to bin Kelly & Foster and go into this season with an untried rookie and Carl Tremarco as our left back options (I'm looking at you Stuart Kettlewell & Steven Ferguson) have caused us no ends of trouble. On the topic of left back, has Alex Iacovitti played a game there for us yet? I understand that he may prefer it in the centre but surely he could steady the leaky ship on that side, he's certainly played there before coming to us. Desperate times indeed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iacovitti played there last week against Livi and was absolutely roasted time and time again by Nicky Cadden and was lucky not to get sent off so he’s not the answer there either I don’t think.

That's 2 players that have looked set to sign that haven't if Hughes interviews are to be believed. Would like to see a couple of players come in, only if they improve the squad though no more filler. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m guessing they were the two guys on trial, and/or the French bloke from Oldham who went home. Can we have a left back and a keeper please, John? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rcfc fan Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 Not bothered about Stanton our midfield is fine as it is , a striker and possibly a left back (not as bothered now due to Randall performing well there on Saturday) or winger will do me 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gannonball Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Leo Hjelde has joined yous on loan from us, think he’s only about 17, we poached him from Rosenborg but I have never seen him play. He was on the bench the other week with all the covid call offs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comrie Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Left side center half according to googling quickly. Might be cover for both CB and LB. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rcfc fan Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Quite a sensible signing really if he can cover multiple positions and will be on peanuts I’d imagine 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherrif John Bunnell Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 I don't think we've had a decent Celtic loanee since Jackson Irvine, so hopefully he is half-decent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
