qos_75 Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 Dobbie deserves a call up. Get him on the squad Eck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toshson Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 Dobbie is pure class, if he wasn't playing for Queens today it would of been embarrassing. Every goal was clinically finished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MB Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 He is an artist. He is both clinical and an exquisite footballer. Also a top bloke and a model professional. What a player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was trying to read what his contract actually says, but couldn’t quite make it out. Suspect it may be just a bit of paper for the photo opportunity!

ShaggysBeard Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 I listened to his Open Goal interview with Simon Ferry last night. Decent listen. I remember him being dangerous the first time round with QotS and going to the games thinking we'd be alright if we can him quiet, but he's on a different planet than the rest of the division this year. Genuinely looking forward to QotS coming to East End Park a week on Saturday just to see him play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 McCall was on Sportsound saying either Dobbie or Shankland would be worth a call up to the Scotland squad to replace Griffiths. Forgetting Dobbies age or the fact they play in the Championship there’s no real reason they shouldn’t get considered. The goal posts at that level aren’t any smaller from the Championships and I’d guarantee you if they had chances presented to them there’d be goals.

JessieField Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Clever move by the Board. Extending his contract means Rangers will have to pay an extra £2,000,000 to get him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bridge of allan bairn Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 absolutely brilliant player one I look forward to watching everytime at the Falkirk stadium despite his incessant one man destruction of us. seems like a model pro and all roundcdecent egg too.absolutely jealous that Falkirk have no one like this. I can pay him no higher compliment than say I'd put him on a par with the likes of stainrod latapy and McAllister at our own club. an absolute legend.

Dobbie’s age counts against him and the level they both play at counts against them both, but any player scoring goals at the rate Dobbie and Shankland surely have to at least be considered. The confidence both players must have just now can’t be coached.McLeish is a complete diddy though and probably hasn’t even heard of Shankland. I’d also be worried about our players regressing under his management. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s a boy here in Kilmarnock who scores goals in the amateurs for fun (and the Championship isn’t far above that level to be honest) and the goal posts are the same size at that level, should he get a call up too?He’s playing in a division where Leo Fasan is a first choice keeper.

For you to suggest that the Championship isn’t that much better than the amateurs is laughable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingfaetheSooth Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 On 01/10/2018 at 20:55, Distant Doonhamer said: I couldn`t find the specific match but the 3 goals are on this from about 9.03 minutes in. I haven't watched that clip for a few years, some absolutely stunning goals there. Dobbie is one of those strikers that just loves scoring goals, the celebration joy has not diminished over the years. Worth noting in that clip, that big Sean O'Connor was a superb foil for Dobbie. If it hadn't been for injuries (that outrageous tackle against Morton comes to mind) and his knees plus he had a yard more pace, he would have been some player. He's just turned 37, so not inconceivable that he could still have been playing without the injuries. Big Sean was one of my favourite players at the time, never gave less than his absolute all. Long live King Dobbie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
