ZX1886 Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 A 3 year deal with a championship club is some move for him. I do hope we have someone good lined up to replace him. I’ll take Moult or Lafferty. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welldaft Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 In Anstruther for a wee break. Wearing my away top from the Paddy Power sponsor free season. One of my favs.... Twice within 5 minutes a cyclist shouted “Mon the Well” and a car driver wound down his window and shouted Well well super well. I guess we just have to accept we are a Global brand . Now get signing some players 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke92 Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 I'd say Devante was one of my favourite players in the last year or so. It's easy to see he has the attributes to play at a decent level and good luck to him at Barnsley, a really good deal for him. As much as I loved him I've always been very aware that we were quite overtly a short term stepping stone for him. And that's totally fine btw. Looking at that graphic of the squad is quite eye opening, there's maybe like 5 bodies you would say are certain to start. GA and whoever winds up as the new Martin Foyle is going to have a job on their hands. I'm really interested to see what sort of team GA forms. I like the Shields signing, I think the last few years has proven there is good potential in the Championship with the likes of Dykes and Nisbett etc. In terms of Moult, I honestly don't think its that pie in the sky. I think Moult genuinely does have an emotional connection to the club and if it was us vs as lower end L1 club we might have a chance. I'm not really sure if the likes of HIbs, Hearts, Aberdeen etc will be in for him. It's hard to say with his injury record, I think that will put a lot of clubs off tbh. Lafferty is probably going to go to the highest bidder so I'm not so sure but I would love him to come if even just for the #bants Ideally i'd like us to try build a bit more stability with boys who will be here for the medium term but whether this is achievable I'm not sure. I look at the likes of SOD and Watt who probably to spend the next few years here and build something. I think having a solid base in that vein mixed with potential/short term guys would build more momentum than having to do a total rebuild every 2 years but I appreciate its really difficult for a club like ours. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fully judging books by covers here but he doesn't seem the most obvious fit for Alexander's "I judge players on how they train" line. Also, I like the Barrie McKay shout.

MP_MFC Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 Re Moult, the recent interview seemed to suggest he was settled down south, so whilst there’s a pull there to return here he may not want to uproot his family again and may prefer to stay somewhere more local, enter Morecambe and Robbo- only half an hour-ish from Preston. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dezz Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 Since its that time of year and we need some players I'm going to put forward Greg Stewart as being worth a punt.Discuss. I was thinking about random punts earlier and Stewart was the first name to pop into my head. Obviously hasn’t had much football in the last few years, and was shite at Aberdeen, but he’d be worth a look. I’ll chuck Stevie Mallan into the worth a punt pot. Need more 30 yarders at FP. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt_oats Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 (edited) Noticed this on Decanter's wee thanks to the club and that on his Twitter. When he's saying he was open to staying after the first talks but "it wasn't to be" I take it we've known for a while he was planning on making his move South. Heavy "letting us down gently" vibes with some of that wording though Edited June 8, 2021 by capt_oats 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
well fan for life Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 "I thought I possibly had to look elsewhere" definitely translates as "I wanted fuckin loadsa money". Fair play to him though. Can't grudge him the move. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair play to him though. Can't grudge him the move. I read it slightly differently and more in line with @Ron Aldo's post earlier. IIRC that first conversation happened fucking ages ago. The way I took it was that he was open to sticking around when his next destination was likely to be some League 1 jobber outfit but he kept scoring goals and looking a class above at which point he realised "actually, I don't really need to hang about here for another 6 months. I can get fuckin' loadsa money from a Championship team now...I'm going to do that." Edited June 8, 2021 by capt_oats 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
