Panel Pundit on SKY

Panel Pundit on SKY (14/14)

  1. Felt that was coming after the first half an hour. You don’t take chances, you don’t deserve to win/ progress in football games. Rest of the season is going to be a slog to avoid a relegation battle. Then the team needs a big refresh in the summer. I know it’s been said before but that summer recruitment was really poor. I just hope we can clear out a number of these players on longer contracts. Too many that don’t deserve to be getting paid full time football wages & that is being shown, time & time again.
  2. Have to imagine a lot of that 8 are moving on. LJ away, Olusanya rejected contract. Can’t imagine there is still a place for Ayunga & Scott at the club next season. If we also think of Mooney & Oseni as projects and that Mandron isn’t cutting it regularly enough… Spaces seem to be there.
  3. That’s not what I’m talking about. I’m talking about us rewarding him for doing exactly as we would have wanted him to do on loan. Score goals & impress. Held up his side of the bargain, should be given a chance to step up here over the remainder of his contract imo.
  4. It’s a fair comment & it’s the argument I often use when people bemoan the contract situation of young players we lose (Reid & Sutherland as recent examples). If we go too early on people that show promise, for every John McGinn we tie down long term, we have five Thomas Reilly’s collecting a wage. If we go too late, the players & their agents know their worth & getting them signed down is far harder. This one maybe feels slightly different in we have seemingly asked Offord to go & do the business on loan, he has done & it doesn’t look like he’ll get a chance as a reward. He also isn’t being lost to a much bigger fish. Again speculation but I would assume if we wanted to tie him down & give him first team football, he’d stay over going to Northern Ireland. Is what it is I suppose & yet to be seen what happens. Here’s hoping the young lads we have got under contract right now give us a better football/ financial return.
  5. Just hope it isn’t another Aaron Mooy situation where we cut loose a great prospect without realising what we have. Toy moving on (and probably Mandron) in the summer could have given an opportunity here.
  6. Disappointing, felt there was opportunity there to give him a chance over the next few months given how poor our forwards have been recently. If he doesn’t cut it, if he wants to move on, fine for the summer. Almost certainly due compensation for anywhere he’s likely to go.
  7. With the news Olusanya has rejected the contract extension, I hope this changes the plans a bit for Offord. Got to imagine Scott, Ayunga, Jamieson are joining him on an exit, either now or the summer. Think there’s a decent chance Mandron will be released as well & Oseni is seen as a project. So it’s big changes in the forward department. Give the young lads, with great potential a chance. They almost can’t do any worse than what we have seen in many of the recent league games.
  8. Seems to have done well & got an assist… probably won’t see him play again for 2 months 😅
  9. Another game where Mooney doesn’t get on. I can’t grasp that at all… against league 1 opposition? Is there something going on behind the scenes?
  10. It’s actually getting beyond explaining now. Why on earth did Robbo not change it at the back in the build up to the goal? It was coming for a good 10 minutes. Why on earth did he have ‘the best finisher at the club’ waiting to come on for so long, only to be given about 3 minutes after they scored? Generally really awful line-up, formation & game management. Another game where we got what we deserved, nothing.
  11. I know there would be issues with throwing in too many young lads but it’s hard to see how F Taylor, Offord & Mooney haven’t done enough to at least get a run in the team. So many players miles off the pace, it’s tough to imagine them being worse.
  12. Game is all but over, why on earth is he brining on Ayunga? A perfect opportunity to give Mooney more minutes. All the young lads that have played recently should be on the bench & getting minutes in a game like this. I can’t workout Robbo’s thinking at all here.
  13. Back to back top six finishes & three seasons in a row, finishing in league positions we haven’t seen since the 80s. If you had been remotely right over that period, we’d be playing part time football by now.
  14. You really never learn, do you? 😂
  15. 2-0, game over. First game of the season I haven’t bothered to watch in any capacity. Games against either of the arse cheeks are generally a free hit but I’ve been skunnererd with the last two performances. Couldn’t see us putting up any sort of fight against a wounded Celtic side & we seemingly haven’t.
