I'd say marginally worse. Well I'd agree with @Merkland Red and say that I'm being slightly harsh on Jenks, so in my opinion, in order of worthiness, I'd say.. 1. Ted Jenks 2. Callum Hendry 3. Flo Kamberi 4. Austin Samuels 5. Fraser Hornby 6. Matt Longstaff ...so I'd say the 1st half of this season's loans were marginally worse than the 2nd half of last season...although it's a horrible list 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst he never looked like scoring, Hornby had some technical ability to speak of. Samuels put his head down and runs with the ball. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dons_1988 Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 I’d rather forget the utterly soulless few months of football played between January and may 2021. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He got shunted down because my abiding memory of Hornby was the sitter at Ibrox. Although, that might of been his best game* too and he showed a bit of promise. *I really can't remember much of last season. Matches in stadiums closed to fans is in my Room 101. I couldn't even watch us play in Lisbon online it was so grim. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ever since somebody got one on SKY, there was always going to be more attempts. Some better than others. And we could do with some real news to stop folk making shit up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mediocrity abounds. I've always thought that. They'll probably be more athletic, but quality wise, there's some very average footballers in that league. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenks has had a couple of good games but has been anonymous in others. I don't think i've had as much irrational hatred for one of our own players as i had for Kamberi by May, even Greg Stewart. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodhull Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 definitely wouldn't be the worst thing for him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hackett09 Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Seems to be far more chat of players leaving than arriving at the moment. There’s definitely a player in Dean Campbell. He will benefit from half a season on loan I reckon. So far with Samuels, longstaff gone, Gurr, Campbell rumoured to be away and club allegedly open to offers for Ferguson and Ramsay, the new Head of Recruitment had better have been busy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting that English clubs are interested in him, I wonder what level? I think he could manage to get a club at EL1 level, but not sure he would go straight in and command a first team spot there. Probably better to shoot for EL2 as he needs constant games. His weakness for me is consistancy, and taking responsibility in every game to contribute and drive the team around him on. Be interesting to see where he plays wherever he goes, as I've liked the look of him at left back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingjoey Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 20 hours ago, Illgresi said: I've never felt Lewis is a particularly good shot-stopper; above average at his best. But he's so good in many other ways, particularly in the air, and his command of his box. I also don't think he's particularly poor with the ball at his feet. I think Langfield was actually a better shot-stopper overall, but anyone who would prefer Langfield over Lewis is a fucking mentalist. Unless we luck out and get a Danny Ward for a season, or bring one through, I would always prefer the competent shot-stopper that's commanding, and doesn't make too many f**k ups. I certainly don't think Clark is an upgrade overall, Siegrist maybe... I would be as comfortable with having Zander Clark as my goalkeeper as I was with Scott Brown (yes, that one). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bolton, Forest Green and Port Vale are interested, according to 'Football Insider' (no idea how credible a source that is, to be honest). That account has presumably seen that and reposted it on their account shortly after, as they seem to do with most of the 'ITK' stuff they post. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
