Perhaps head and shoulders was a bit strong but I certainly think he’d do well for us. Doubt it’ll happen anyway 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely different styles of midfield player. Murdoch is better at breaking up play, but Crawford is better in most other aspects. They may complement each other quite well actually. Crawford, Murdoch and another would be ideal. Edited November 7, 2021 by No_Problemo 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HMIP Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 One of the basic issues with our midfield is that we don’t seem able to retain possession for any time at all. Crawford would surely help with that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McKenzie is signed up until 2023 as well. Also AP said when McGinty signed it was a one year deal with the option of another year so not sure if that's the same for Fjortoft and Salkeld. Hopefully not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No_Problemo Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 I can stomach Fjortoft as he at least has the odd redeeming quality, but I never want to see McGinty or Salkeld on the pitch in an Ayr United top again - right up there with our worst ever signings. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fjortoft is fine at this level, he's about lower-average for the league. That being said I'd still rate Muirhead as our best centre half. A good centre half next to him and your comfortable, a Jack Baird or Sean McGinty next to him and your cringing anytime the ball gets past our midfield. Would absolutely be looking for atleast 1 new central defender in January to keep Baird and McGinty away and atleast a 2nd in the summer as minimum. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve no real complaints with the way Baird has been playing this season. If we have money to spend in January, it should really be getting invested in other parts of the team. Muirhead, Baird and Fjortoft are far from the worst centre back options I’ve seen at the club. I’m no big fan of McGinty, but the Partick game aside I’m not sure he’s been as catastrophically bad as some are making out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baird has arguably been better than Fjortoft this season. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanayr1987 Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 I like the look of fjortoff tbh, as some have said he’s very raw but think he will do ok. Mcginty can sit on the bench the rest of the season or if hopkin ends up in another gig he can go wherever he ends up. Is Houston’s deal actually up? Thought he signed an extension at some point but can’t find it on the website 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted November 8, 2021 Author Share Posted November 8, 2021 Aye Muirhead, Baird and Fjortoft are all fairly decent options for this league. I’d have McGinty punted out the door and bring in another left footed defender to replace him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
