superlichtie87 Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 What proof is there that he is signing for us and what sort of fee is involved? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swankie getting on the ball and having DD/Linn and Doris running in behind just sounds superb. Also funny how Ecto seems to think he has been behind the scenes throughout Gavs career seeing things none of the rest of us have. Will always support the decision made by the manager, hope it works out Edited July 3, 2017 by ecto 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mexico Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 I really hope Campbell can get into the heads of the Forfar lads that have came on board in the summer, the last thing I'd want is for the squad to be mentally weak and fall at the final hurdle like Forfar did, it must hurt all summer that kind of scenario. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't be daft, just forget the Alloa Play-off collapse and the relegation collapse and the 11pts clear collapse that these 3 new signings played their part in.. ;-) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicesterlichtie Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 So Swanks could be back for a 4th spell. Not a choice I'd have taken but would trust the managers judgement if signing does emerge. If he become a Lichtie again then maybe adopt a 4-4-1-1 Gomes Gold Little TOB Hammy Linn Whatley McCord Denholm Swankie Doris Hester to be punted or shipped out on loan. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theSilverFox Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 12 hours ago, Buzz Lichtyear said: Two sides to the Swankie coin. He's obviously more experienced at a higher level than a lot of the boys, but he's obviously a well known petulant wee shite. If DC is confident he can manage him, then he could be an asset. I'd like to think our dressing room is strong enough that he wouldn't be able to influence them negatively, and if he did I'd hope he would get weeded out Good post, remember Swanks came to us following a strop he took at Arbroath very similar to the strop he just threw at Station Park. I know Dick likes and rates him but openly admitted in the past he was very difficult to manage. 12 hours ago, mo83 said: Dick must rate him, did he not make swankie his captain at forfar??? Gary made him captain, not Dick, in a futile attempt to get him to play on form week in week out. 11 hours ago, ecto said: Nah, Gav would just sulk and be a pain in the arse until he was gone, a leopard rarely changes it's spots, defensive cover needs to be addressed first The likely scenario /\ I have mixed feelings about this, sorry to see the man who scored both goals in our only victory over Rangers but glad to see an overpaid lazy player with a childish attitude go. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1320Lichtie Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 Forfar seem to be a bit of a PR disaster To be fair I think they're just really pissed off at us, who can blame them. For what it's worth between Aberdeen, Dundee and Bolton we could maybe get 3-4000 paying punters through so hopefully that should cover this easy enough. Aberdeen seemed to take a lot through to Perth last week and the Dundee fans I've spoke to in my work are saying Saturday will be the first chance they'll have to see the team at home (basically at home there other fixture before it is at St Mirren). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superlichtie87 Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 I wouldn't be paying £8k for that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loonytoons Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 Great bit of business from Forfar, I would say.Swanks has been going backwards for the last 3 seasons. Some of his touches are magic but really drops out of games way too frequently now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
