Aye it'd be daft for him to go to a club like Hamilton who play in a higher division and will pay him more money. Pipe down or we’ll take Michael Doyle. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted June 14, 2019 Author Share Posted June 14, 2019 Fs Tom Lang away to Dunfermline, hate to say it but Dunfermline looking seriously good, thought we'd be battling with them for mid table but just now they look miles better than us.Tom Lang was playing League 2 last season and completely flopped last time in the Championship. He may have improved but it’s still a big gamble. Likewise with Turner, Murray and Nisbet. None of them are proven Championship players. Add that to the Falkirk esq English lower league signings and Paul Paton and I’m not really seeing anything impressive. They’ll be mid table next season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUcal Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Really gutted about Crawford. Hope he kicks on, definitely has the ability, just didn't quite happen at ayr. Really rate him. If I'm honest I was surprised that he stayed as long as he did with the amount of unfair criticism he received during his time here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted June 14, 2019 Author Share Posted June 14, 2019 Crawford isn’t much of a loss imo. He had completely stagnated at Ayr United and needed a move to hopefully reignite his career He was one of our top earners last season so money saved in that department. McCall has a big job on his hand the next few weeks. As a bare minimum we now need 6 players: GK- Hopefully Doohan Defender- Hopefully a right back that can play centre back or vice versa. Central Midfielder Winger Two ForwardsAye basically this Any decent midfielders out there that can score 5 or 6 goals in this division?? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
railwayend Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Ah well Robbie's gone ,hope he gets a good move . Never been my cup of tea but never booed him ,not once . However would love it if he went to Livingston and with us going up there in the Bet Fred Cup . We could all watch Andrew Murdoch giving him an absolute schooling in centre midfield . Same rules apply to McDaid's run in with Andrew Geggan next season . Now McCall know's the full picture . He can push on and get the players we need ,six if my count is correct .Looking forward to seeing who he gets ,particularly Robbie's replacement . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpInTheAyr Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 McDaid v Geggan would be a great battle to watch next season. Andy would know exactly how to rile him up and get him whinging. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy would know exactly how to rile him up and get him whinging.This gets me excited. However I’ll find it very strange watching Shankland in a Sunderland kit going up against Rose in a Coventry kit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mgc1910 Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 If someone works out that Crawford is best suited to a 3 man midfield he could really kick on. He’s a player we took for granted much too often and played out of position too many games, so I think it’s time for him to move on for his own benefit. Definite loss for us. In the market we’re in, with the budget available, I’m not clear we’ll do much better. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say we need to cast the net a little wider than normal as we all know what's available in this division and none of the options fill you with any sort of excitement or confidence for the coming season. Let's hope we have some good contacts outwith Scotland (Castilla ?) as I fear we're running out of quality options on these shores unless McCall can unearth a few more gems, however it's not always a great idea to fill your side with young and inexperienced players and we've already got quite a few of those as we stand............ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm actually thinking the opposite with Dunfermline, they have signed players from the lower leagues unproven at this level, and Paul Paton who is done. Certainly not looking "seriously good" on my piece of paper 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THEHonestman1910 Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Ah well, Crawford is away, i wouldn't have mind keeping him, but i'm not disappointed he's gone. A lot of our success came from Murdoch and Kerr last season and if we invest in that area, we can get better. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

railwayend Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Tidser has signed for Falkirk ,but they are also after Telfer who played 29 times last season and scored 5 goals . Not a bad option for us to step in and offer Championship football . Also youngster Liam Burt just released by Rangers ,very tidy play .... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
