~The Sixth Sense~ Hamilton Academical 2019/2020 Thread


Recommended Posts

McMann has most of the qualities needed to succeed at the Preston / Wigan level of English football. Obviously he would need to continue to improve particularly mentally and be able to put mistakes behind him.

Too often in games a mistake in the first 5 or 10 minutes from McMann means that he goes on to have a poor game, however when he’s good he a very effective LB.

It took him a couple of months to get going in his first spell (and then a couple of months to get going the following season). He obviously wasn't as great this time around, but he's still the best footballer at the club.

While it's a bit of a worry that he's approaching the end of his career, he's not really about his pace, more intelligence and technique.

f**k knows how much football a two-year deal will actually cover though.

Brave/stupid move giving any player a 2 year contract right now

Only Temps getting one. Chairman saying that the others who will soon be out of contract - McGowan, Hunt, Alston, Gogic, Miller, Oakley and Davies will be away at end of May.

Take it this was said in the recent podcast interview?

Smith and Temps might be able to ensure we don't miss Miller, and it might be up to Martin to fill Gogic's shoes (who in turn replaced MacKinnon (who we thought Martin was going to replace so it's gone full circle)). McGowan's a decent RB which is something we haven't had too much of over the years, but he's not irreplaceable. We'll miss his aerial ability though.

Alston and Hunt were pretty rubbish signings, and Davies and Oakley showed enough to be above them but still weren't worth extending. I would've definitely considered Davies if he a) didn't have a horrendous fitness record, and b) had had a good game since November.

Xenophobia kicking in with everyone ecstatic about getting ‘the English boays’ out. I imagine some will leave like Davies (member we turned down actual money for him) and Hunt who have been shite.

 

Despite what Maitland says just now we will be talking to the likes of McGowan, Oakley and Gogic in the near future about signing new deals.

Who's ecstatic? Hunt, Davies and Oakley will be no great loss. I'm more delighted about shedding the imposter that is Alston. Miller was always gonna leave at the end of this season as I think was McGowan but without doubt the biggest loss will be Gogic who was absolutely outstanding this season. The only hope is that with the current climate he may be tempted by the security of an offer from us, assuming we do offer him a contract, which I'd like to think we would.
