Thumper Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 I did once have a vivid dream that I, a guy then in his mid-30s who hasn't exercised since he was 16 and can do five keepy-uppies on a good day, somehow ended up playing up front for Ayr United. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still remember a dream I had ages ago where I was playing for Ayr vs Peterhead but everyone was in a wheelchair and I wasn’t. I was still absolutely pish. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was true. That was Gary Harkins. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

United1973 Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 So who you guys think we are signing ? Do you think recruitment guy is doing a good job ?! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 It's becoming pretty clear that there's very few players around in Scotland, hence the reason we're all discussing guys like Griffiths and Rooney and were hoping to get Sibbald and then we've got part timers who most definitely wouldn't have any interest in re-locating to the other side of the country for tuppence happeny, even assuming they were up to the task. Given the immigration issues we have with Foreign based players and the fact that we supposedly don't want any more from England, then I'm not sure what the answer actually is ?? Do we have to rely on picking up a good young Loan player from the Old Firm ? Or does anyone have any ideas what the next move could be ?? The worrying thing here is that every other side in this league (and even in the league above) would appear to have the exact same issues, so I've really no idea what the answer is ?? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no way of knowing. It's FAR too early to make any serious judgements on the guys we've signed and as for Glendinning, he may have identified hundreds of players but for whatever reason they've decided not too come. These reasons could be financial, geographical, personal or any other issues that we'd have no way of possibly knowing about. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diegomarahenry Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 Bullen says he wants players with Scottish league experience so there are very few unattached players good enough to play at this level left. I can think of 3 off the top of my head, Crawford, Griffiths and Allan, the first doesn’t seem likely or it would have happened by now, the second two are unlikely due to location and “other issues” The only other player still unattached is the international superstar James Maxwell, we were privileged to witness him for a season at Ayr and should he thankful and honoured we saw him in black and white. This presumably means it will be loans , so we will have a team of players from England bolstered with some children who played lowland league football last year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd take Crawford, not seen or heard him linked with anywhere else but whether or not he'd want to come back and be a target for the boo-boys straight away remains to be seen. Allan is unrealistic, but on paper would be a good signing. Griffiths is an absolute no. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn’t solve our issue of who’s scoring goals but he’s had a good track record at this level bar last season at Hamilton. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superhursty7 Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 This window has been a real struggle for most clubs, first pre season post COVID restrictions and first one real after BREXIT, because of the red tape clubs are looking closser to home for signings making getting experience Scottish players at our level as scarce as hen's teeth hopefully one good thing is we have to develop our own youngsters. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
