Iain Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Hard to complain about Chalmers being recalled when we just did exactly the same thing with Hewitt. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honest_Man#1 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 I’d heard that Tranmere are paying Dundee Utd a fee for him so unfortunately we’d have no chance of matching them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s not involved with Dundee United so I’m assuming you’re correct. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mod1967 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Young no loss, decent nothing more, I'd expect considerable signings now, Olly Shaw on loan anyone? -3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevep56 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 (edited) Noticed that Ross Doohan has moved from Tranmere to Forest Green - possible team mate with Chalmers? Edited January 14 by stevep56 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roxanne's man Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 (edited) The weather played a massive part in today's result. Credit where it's due, great goal from Sean McGinty. I'm not his biggest fan at the best of times but that was a good goal. Played out of possession too often. JML doesn't give enough. We really need a few signings. Bullen should play Cove twice, then see where we are squad wise with injuries before dipping the loan market imo.

Oceanlineayr Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Superb tackle by Kirk near the end to deny Arbroath an almost certain winner. Unfortunately he look like he took a sore one. Hope it's nothing serious as he has done well for us. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forest Green Rovers seemed to be the name mentioned who was interested in signing Chalmers. Stinking timing for us though. It’s not FGR believe it could be Tranmere Rovers 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rb123! Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Logan Chalmers is away to Tranmere Rovers and Brad Young is away back to Villa Mathie was in Hub before match and overheard him say to supporters next to me that Dundee United had a deadline of 13th January to recall Chalmers and they waitied and done it late last night, he said he's away to Tranmere. Young is away back to Villa as it wasn't working out and seemed to be some home sickness issues too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mod1967 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 We desperately desperately need quality attacker's, I know people will jump on and protect McKenzie and Ashford, but in all honesty they're absolutely nowhere near it, miles and miles away actually and it's game after game Ashford especially is stinking. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted January 14 Author Share Posted January 14 Not overly worried about additions for the Cove cup game but hoping we have one or two in for the following weekend. Striker and an attacking midfielder please. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mod1967 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Definitely and I'm sure they'll be feverishly working on it now 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just didn’t do enough in the first play, but fair play to them for salvaging a point. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say this is not only totally unfair (on McKenzie in particular) but it's also completely untrue. McKenzie has had some excellent games for us this season and Ashford was pretty decent at the beginning of the season, the fact we are where we are in the league tells you that they must have been doing something right and although both may not look like individual superstars, they've both contributed in the team dynamic to gain us some excellent results. That said, I don't think either should be starters if we're serious about a run at promotion but both have certainly got much to contribute as squad players if and when required. The bottom line is that we've lost both Chalmers and Young but recalled Hewitt and got Bryden back fit, so in terms of numbers we're still pretty large squad wise but of course there's no doubt that we're still well down in terms of quality and experience. I'd hope / expect that we'd be bringing in at least 1 experienced attacking Mid / striker and another perhaps youngster on loan, if not, then it's unarguable that we've been weakened in January as opposed to kicking on from an excellent position. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your opinion and I know you like people who run around a lot, but at our level you need more and they simply don't have more, can't score, can't create, can't beat anyone.....you are aware that they are forwards, serious question btw 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hursty Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 (edited) There were guys behind me (far right of the Railway end towards the bogs) absolutely slaughtering McGinty after our equaliser "haha big useless b*****d finally does something" Annoys me. I like the big guy. He's been good this season. And having scrolled back through this thread to the day he signed I was absolutely one of his biggest critics and delighted to admit I was wrong.
