Fuctifano Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 Obvious statement is obvious but that's excellent news. Of the senior players, he was the only one (and I include Edwards in this) who was out of contract in 2018 that I wanted to see get an extension before the season kicked off. Everyone else out of contract before summer 2019 has something to prove in terms of fitness (Dumbuya, Bannigan, Fraser) , regaining form (Devine, Osman, Lawless, Booth), or ability to cut it at this level (Scully*, Nisbet). *I know he was coming onto a game when he got injured, but still... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any chance of our apparent loanee in waiting, James Penrice, getting a game? He's featured quite a bit for us in preseason so far, often at CB as we've had a real shortage there. Not sure if Keown will have joined up with the team yet and be available for tomorrow, but if not there's a very good chance Penrice will play again, either in the middle or at his natural LB (where he'd share time with Booth). Fantastic news about big Tam Cerny. Best keeper we've had at Thistle in a long, long time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully it goes through. I haven't seen him play there as I've not seen a preseason game yet, and so can't really comment, but he doesn't look like he'd work at CB. He's pretty small and slight - it just doesn't seem like a natural fit. But at least he'll have some experience there if you ever needed him to play there (if you do end up loaning him). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cilitbang Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 (edited) Pretty sure Archie has said Keown has picked up a knock at Reading. Might see Penrice on the left of a back three with Barton and Devine *shrugs* Edited July 10, 2017 by cilitbang 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagfox Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 Getting linked with Miles Storey along with a host of other Scottish clubs. More plausible than the MOH story. Source: BBC Gossip (Scottish Sun) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Listen closely. Now I don't want to sound like a hypocrite spouting unsolicited nonsense, but the only Miles I know in Scottish football currently, is Storey up in Aberdeen.Hmmm...is that the mysterious body? Could he be in talks with us and down in Essex training with us this week? Nah highly doubt it. Ignore me. Don't see it. Does sound like they are shouting that though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaggymct Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 Looks like Muzzy is out for a few months with a knee injury, Penrice unlikely to go on loan and probably a new full back required 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armand 2 Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 Yep, that's Dumbuya out and from what I hear, I don't think we'll be seeing him much before the New Year. I thought we should have probably cut our losses on him this summer and this drives that home. Particularly irksome that we'll be in the market for a full-back now and guys like SOD and Nicky Devlin (who we were credited with an interest in last year) have moved elsewhere. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griff Sheridan Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 SOD's off. You have to move on.I was looking forward to seeing Dumbuya back to 100% and tearing up the wing terrorising opposition full backs. His leg issues must be due to how much stress they are put under with his speed. Wouldn't like to see him go, but we need to get at least 3/4 of a season out of him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Arch Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 I would take Keith Watson as a short term loan, but we've seen how we struggle when we sign full backs that aren't as athletic as we'd like. It's hard to blame Dumbuya too much, but he's becoming a bit of a liability. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red 'N Yellow Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 Gutted with that, great player but we should just cut our losses as this isn't a one off thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will definitely need a new full back then. That's frustrating. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagfox Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 From ptfc.co.uk:“We may have to go out and get a full-back now which we weren’t planning on. We were happy to go into the season with Dumbuya, Booth, Elliott and Penrice – loan dependant. We also have to look at options up front because suddenly we only have one striker who’s scored a Premiership goal so we will be looking in the market.” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mediocre Pundit Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 I have no issue starting the season with Elliott and Booth. We have Penrice as cover on the left (although I'd prefer him to go out on loan and get game time) but as a minimum we need suitable cover on the right. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cilitbang Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 Same shit as last season which sucks.. Archie can dust off last years full back targets so shouldn't require as much time identifying who to go after. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
