DAFC. Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 1 hour ago, Chubbychops said: Aye, would like to see a couple signings this week. I'm sure there's loads going on in the background and it's a harder sell playing in league 1 now but a bit of progress with squad building would be welcome. Wide players and centre back is particularly threadbare. Centre mid has got to be addressed. Be as well playing with traffic cones if it is going to be Chalmers and Dorrans. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be as well playing with traffic cones if it is going to be Chalmers and Dorrans. Centre mid doesn't look great but we have quite a few CMs Chalmers, Dorrans, Todd, Allan and Hamilton. Hamilton sounds like a good addition and I'm not adverse to Dorrans having a full pre-season under McPake. The others however, I just don't rate. Todd is a worker but he doesn't have the touch or guile to play midfield, Allan is tidy enough but very lightweight and wants too much time on the ball. Chalmers is just a lazy shite and can GTF. We certainly could do with a more attack minded CM but not sure if it will happen unless we offload some of the names above, either on loan or out the door.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 Someone in the mindset of Nicky Phinn who would get into the box and offer another goal threat instead of all the jokers we've had recently that are scared of getting forward. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CallumPar Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 Noticed there’s another interview with McPake on the official site. He mentions Shields is currently doing 2 jobs - leading the academy and “also helping me at the minute” - strong suggestion that Shields won’t be involved with the first team, once the management team is finalised. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAFC. Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 We've had bespoke home and away kits for the past 4 seasons as well, so safe to assume they'll be bespoke, and not tatty Sunday league shirts from a catalogue. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chubbychops Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 (edited) Totally died a death on the transfer front. Not even any rumours going about. Seems other teams are in the same boat apart from QOS. Edited June 20, 2022 by Chubbychops 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parsforlife Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 mind when we were all hoping for a new signing, we put out an excited ITS HAPPENING tweet and then announced Ross Graham. I think I’m prepared to wait 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I’m prepared to wait In fairness, he's had a terrific career so far apart from his spell at EEP. We just suck the joy and talent out of players. We're not going to sign anyone exciting and anyway, it's still almost three weeks until our first "competitive" game.

The Toun Clock Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 He was that shit at us that if we were offered him right now I'd still have my doubts, despite how well his second half of the season went. ICT fan on the Falkirk thread (I know) says we're signings Charlie Adam. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAFC. Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 (edited) Better hope they extend the outfield players to 15 for 4 players to do all Adam's and Dorrans' running for them. Edited June 21, 2022 by DAFC. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo*1 Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 Adam will win this league on his own if there's even an ounce of truth in that. Will need to deploy a 3 man midfield for him though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chubbychops Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 Midfield 3 of of Chalmers, Dorrans and Adam. There would be more energy extracted from a 2 watt light bulb. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've currently got absolutely f**k all in the way of wide midfielders, and all our strikers work better in a 2. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
