Ryan Blair hasn’t exactly received rave reviews from Pars fans from last season. Are we likely to sign him or is he just trying to keep fit? On last nights showing , he is certainly no better than what we have 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted November 6, 2019 Author Share Posted November 6, 2019 On last nights showing , he is certainly no better than what we have I’d imagine he wouldn’t be match fit though. Still it’s Albion Rovers reserves so you’d be expecting something from him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 16 hours ago, D'Jaffo said: I’m 99.9% sure he signed a 2 year deal at the end of last season. Just after he came into the team. We'd also be due a development fee if he wasn't under contract, however as you say he's contracted until May 2021 from what I believe, so if anyone wants him then they'll need to be paying big bucks I'm afraid !! It's certainly no surprise as we all know that Luke, Alan & Daniel have been absolute stand outs this season and they've all got the basic ingredients on their side such as age, temperament, skill, technique and pace. Luke in particular has the workrate of three players as the boy is just a bundle of energy (coupled with class) who pops up just about everywhere on the park and he's just getting better and better with each passing week. He really could be anything. Winger ? Box to Box midfielder ? in the hole just behind the strikers ?? Just quality and is a major goal threat to boot. Alan is finally getting an injury free run and is beginning to fulfil the undoubted potential that we all knew he possessed, he's two footed, intelligent, tricky, great all round footballer, has pace and again has a wonderful temperament. Danny has been one of our most consistent and all round performers this season and finally stepped out of the shadow of his fellow FB from last season Liam Smith, Danny appears to have gained confidence, pace, strength and a desire and belief that he maybe lacked when he first arrived. He's got bags and bags of potential and I reckon he could go to the very top of the game. Let's be honest, there's not a great deal of young talent out there at the moment (outwith the 100 youth players each Premiership club has hidden away that don't see a first team game until 24) and our guys MUST be among the most sought after around as they have the first team experience and real match practice and fitness, so really no surprise to me to see these stories starting to emerge................. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I'd definitely agree with that. Smith was a good player as part of a pretty good team, however Harvie is a key player in this side and has much more to offer in terms of making an impact on a match. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edinburghhonestman Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 Harvie was a decent player last season but a) his confidence seems to have really been boosted this season and b) Forrest in front of him works really well as they are on the same wavelength. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know people have said that, I just don’t understand why the SPFL are dragging it out. Personally I feel fans of both clubs should have had a fortnight warning that it wasn’t going ahead so they could make alternative plans. My work is asking me to do a shift that day, but I can’t commit until I know for a fact it’s off 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being realistic I would think that £500k would be the minimum amount that we should be looking for, along with a sell on clause, given that he would have 16 months still remaining on his contract and is currently one of the hottest prospects in the country............ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpInTheAyr Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 McCowan has had the kind of impact I've been expecting McGuffie to have the past couple years. Don't expect him to sustain it over the whole season, he'll need a rest at some point. Hopefully this speculation doesn't affect him much, especially Saturday. I expect any bids around January will barely scrape 100k with clubs thinking just because it's Ayr they can pull a fast one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted November 7, 2019 Author Share Posted November 7, 2019 A good fee with a sell on and a loan back is what we should be looking for. If it gets to the summer then offer him an extension and sell him if he doesn’t sign it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
