Rodhull Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Oof! Could really be doing with Leigh coming back soon if that's the case. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrewDon Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 That's a bit of a nightmare, if so. Whilst he has been a bit up and down this season, he is still easily our best defender on his day. Devlin has been poor for too long now, and while moving Considine into the middle could be a solution, I'm still not fully convinced by Leigh as an actual defender. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
logie skid boys Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 McKenna injury. Big blow .he has been getting back to the performances we expect . Regards Leigh he has been a massive loss bigger than we thought he be . Mr reliable down the left side .,. Hope we get him signed up permanently. . He makes huge difference to the shape of our side . Him back for semi would be great news. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AFCDannyFTH Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Is Hoban still training with us? Might be worth giving him a deal till the end of the season 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussellAnderson Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Aye fire up the Ban-Signal and get Tommie signed up for the rest of the season. It’s easy to look at McKenna through the eyes of the early hype he got and look over the fact that he’s still comfortably one of the best centre halves in the league. Ok, he may not go on to be the next Gabriel Heinze but in the Premiership, he’s a cut above. Him and Taylor have been a great partnership and we’ll miss that IF he is indeed out for the season. It’s a big opportunity for Devlin to show the form he showed in his first run in the team. At least we know he’s capable of it, and isn’t a total write-off. A fit Hoban would be a game-changer though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leigh is a player who's effort/workrate masks his lack of technical ability in the eyes of the fans. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DukDukGoose Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 16 hours ago, DrewDon said: Are you sure that wasn't Mark Gallagher? Part of me now wonders if there was something in Jon Gallagher's first loan contract that necessitated a certain amount of minutes/appearances (probably not, but the sudden fall from a regular starting XI slot to completely out of the picture has been a bit strange). 16 hours ago, Rodhull said: Just reading the match report and think it was the young Gallagher we signed from County rather than Jon. Looks like it was a pretty young side put out. 1-0 win with Ruth scoring again. Ah of course. Maybe Jon is injured then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodhull Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 (edited) Not that it's a surprise but that's Alan Nixon of the sun saying we're trying to sign Hoban again. Says that Leyton Orient are interested too. Edited March 3, 2020 by Rodhull 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodhull Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 McInnes also saying Bryson won't be played tomorrow because of the AstroTurf. Seems a bit late to come to that realisation surely? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrewDon Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 (edited) Considine is a better left-back than Leigh, but he is also a better centre-back than Devlin. Hernandez has apparently played left-back previously, so that will maybe be an option in the short-term if McInnes wants Considine at centre-back in a four. Logan has usually done a reasonable job on the rare occasions he has had to fill in there, but you wouldn't ideally want that to be anything more than a sticking plaster.

RussellAnderson Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Best part of a million quid on a right back to stick him out left. Crackin’. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DukDukGoose Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 I can understand the argument that Considine is a better defender than Leigh but he's nowhere near being a better left back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dons_1988 Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Leigh is a decent enough left back but I'm not sure I'd be rushing to make it a permanent deal tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDon99 Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 After that Killie game I'm genuinely wondering whether Hedges will be here next season. Thought he would me one of our most influential player and we must be paying him a considerable wage.Very confused as to what has happened since the start of the season that has seen him move to our 4th choice winger. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
