Adrian Madaschi Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Would take Cregg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pie Of The Month Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 I'd be delighted with Cregg, Clancy or Hasselbaink who were all released by St Johnstone. The first 2 being far more attainable targets than Hasselbaink right enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawfield shed boy Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Kieran McDonald of us and Motherwell previously ideal LB and his attacking threat will be missed, Could play SPL no probs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red 'N Yellow Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 What position would Cregg play in our 4-2-3-1 formation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuctifano Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Cregg would be an ideal signing to play alongside Bannigan. Hope we get him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P45 Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 If we get Cregg I guess Osbourne won't be signing. Fraser and Bannigan won't be consistent enough to play well in 38 games. I would prefer a fully fit Osbourne but Cregg would be a good signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian Madaschi Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 I'd be fairly happy with Cregg, Taylor, a LB, an experienced CB, a winger and an attacking midfielder as summer acquisitions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reid Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Wouldn't be the most exciting signing but a decent one (if it's true). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mediocre Pundit Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Cairney released by Hibs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DublinMagyar Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 I'd take Cairney back before Cregg,I just wonder though if maybe Hibs have "broken" him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mediocre Pundit Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Would depend on his "fitness". I'd love to re-sign the Cairney we had in his first or, especially, third season with us. However he was shocking in the second season, with reported health issues. Not sure what condition he's in, but worth a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawfield shed boy Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Sorry mate are you just suggesting him or are you saying we are linked with him? Heard you lot were interested... Very good prospect and good either in attack or defence... Only matter o time before he moves up and he's knocked back contract from us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reid Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Can't see us replacing ATS with an untried player from the 4th tier. Might be brought in as back-up though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P45 Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Can't see us replacing ATS with an untried player from the 4th tier. Might be brought in as back-up though. I suppose it worked out well for Dundee United. If he's U20 then he'll be for the U20s more than likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Cregg is a very steady player. I think there were quite a few cynics, myself included, when we brought him in but he does the basic stuff very well and allows the ball players to influence the game further up the park. We've got a few kids coming through in his position, hence why he was released, but he's more than capable of playing in the Premiership. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armand 2 Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Perhaps I've been unlucky to only see some of his poorer displays but I've watched MacDonald on a couple of occasions and haven't been convinced. Tall and rangy, not dissimilar to Sinclair in that respect, but a bit suspect defensively. I think he might be better in midfield, possibly even in a central position, but would need a lot of work as a full back. Certainly not at the same level that Robertson was at Queen's Park this time last year and would struggle in the Premier. There was some talk that we were interested in Joe Chalmers of Celtic but that was before a bit of an unconvincing loan spell at Falkirk who nonetheless appear to be interested in signing him permanently.

double0pie Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Think Cairney would need a bit of time to get fit but could do a job in the attacking mid vacancy that's left by Erskine (who struggled at us anyway this year but was better than any other option). Left back is the most pressing need as they seem much rarer to find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Left back is the most pressing need as they seem much rarer to find. Would take both Cairney and Erskine (though that depends on United) both can score goals, Chris just needs to get his confidence back. We have already let go Forbes and Buaben who were not good enough and Craigen has still to prove a lot he is up for the SPL and did not score enough last season either. Also Lawless may be away as well, add in injuries and suspensions and there is room for both Cairney and Erskine if we can get them both Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
