tarapoa Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 Yellow cards in the league don't count towards Scottish Cup suspensions.SFA seem to be the ones that serve suspensions regardless of tournament.https://www.scottishfa.co.uk/media/1849/suspensions-for-players-in-mens-football-annex-c-section-4.pdf 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BucksburnDandy Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 I see Mr Cormack is in the back pages again today, this time pushing for the worst iteration of the “Atlantic League” rubbish yet. Lets go through the countries involved in this league: Scotland - makes sense Norway - yep Sweden - some big teams there Denmark - aye go on then Ireland - hahaha what Irish domestic football isn’t even fully professional. The LoI is full of part time clubs. And it isn’t even the most popular football competition in the country, everyone in Ireland supports an EPL team. There would be zero interest in this competition in the Republic, you’d genuinely be better off trying Wales or NI. These ideas are always shite but this is the worst one yet. The more I hear from Cormack the less impressed I am. The Atlantic League stuff today is a joke. https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/dave-cormack-urges-celtic-u-23155910Would be nice to go a couple of weeks without Dave Cormack being all over the media.There's a happy balance somewhere in the middle of the once a season Wiggy interview and the almost daily Dave Cormack ones.Time to put the head down and get focused on improving the football on the park Dave. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy. Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 Scott Burns reporting it, so its probably already done, but looks like Ross Stewart might be your Cosgrove replacement. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Particularly the movement to make space for his shot in the second half. And although he fluffed the finish he done well to get the wrong side of Taylor. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be nice if it were true. Stewart has looked ready for a long time now for a step up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might not be for Cosgrove. May mean Watkins not coming back after January? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zapp Brannigan Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 I've been championing Ross Stewart for a while so I'd be pretty happy if it was true. I'm a little concerned that he hasn't been scoring an awful lot even if County have been pretty poor since the 3rd game of the season. Would like him to stand out a bit more from the rest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that Watkins proved that what we need to make things work is not necessarily a target man up front, but a clever striker who is adept at dropping deeper to pick up the ball and then bringing others like Hedges and Wright into play. Since Watkins got injured we've been back to playing the clueless rubbish that has plagued us for the last couple of years. Cosgrove (one sublime goal against Hibs aside) obviously isn't interested so we're back to using Curtis Main as the round peg in the square hole. I've always seen Stewart as an intelligent footballer, but I have the awful feeling that we'd use him as a long ball target man rather than the kind of link up striker that Watkins is. If it were a choice between Watkins or Stewart, I'd much rather go with Watkins at this moment in time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I agree he seems to be a better footballer than the target man role he has been saddled with and his build would suggest. Hopefully McInnes can see that as well but I'm not convinced. Main seems to be the best option at the moment if we're reverting to that strategy. He was actually in pretty good form before last season ended prematurely. Would be happy enough for him to get a run of games as long as he can stay fit! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrewDon Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Main did well on Saturday and has probably done a bit better generally than I expected when he signed (my expectations could barely have been lower), but it's really not a good look for Cosgrove if Main keeps him out of the team for a protracted period of time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irrational Behaviour Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Quite confident Watkins will end up with his good mate, Lee Johnson. The latter has always rated Watkins very highly. As people have said, Stewart may be a replacement for Watkins as opposed to Cosgrove. I like Stewart, although, I would prefer we tried to bring in Ryan Hardie. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raidernation Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 I’d prefer we buy some defenders maybe an actual right (wing)back, but definitely need to improve on made-of-glass-Mikey and ghastly-Ash 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFCDannyFTH Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Apparently McInnes has said at the AGM that Hernandez will be sold in January. What an expensive shambles of a signing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stranger things have happened, but I'd prefer we tried to bring in Watkins or someone else. 7 goals in 12 last season for the same club. Very good scoring record at Livi prior to his move to Blackpool, (now on loan at Plymouth). Plymouth fans love him going by what I've read on their forums. He hasn't necessarily played as an out and out striker this season either. Edit to add: Sam Nicholson will surely be under the eyes of McInnes. Having a good season at Bristol Rovers and OOC in the summer I think. Edited December 14, 2020 by Irrational Behaviour 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What an expensive shambles of a signing. I don't think we paid for him. Atlanta and Darren Eales have something to say here. Would be amazed if Hernandez didn't end up there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
