They are good by Championship Standards, have more physicality than we do and press hard up the pitch. They are a handful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

linwood buddie Posted May 20, 2018 Report Share Posted May 20, 2018 I heard we had been in for Halkett , don't know how that will go now ? Would have taken another chance on Hardie also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gosport Buddie Posted May 20, 2018 Report Share Posted May 20, 2018 I know we've been linked with Paul McGinn but on the play offs I don't think we should be after any Thistle players Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Played several decent balls into the channels. I'm not saying he's a world-beater, but it's probably quite easy for decent players to look terrible in a demotivated Thistle side. That's what shocked me most of all; how sluggish many of them looked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
munoz Posted May 21, 2018 Report Share Posted May 21, 2018 Paul McGinn was probably their best player yesterday, although that's not saying much. Thought he looked like one of the few thistle players that looked interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a bit harsh as Thistle did put in a very high work rate in the second half on Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Mc Posted May 21, 2018 Report Share Posted May 21, 2018 Hard to say too much about defensive capabilities as Livingston sat in and had no width. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you looked at his career since leaving us? Injury prone and won’t cut it. he only looked half decent for us as he was surrounded by shite like Marwood and Ball!

(Having said that, have you seen Livi are putting a plastic pitch down as well - that would have been another two games he couldn't have played).

Saint Garf Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 Not convinced by O'Ware, but would happily be proved wrong if he signed. Halkett looks a bit better, but he might fancy a crack at the Prem with Livi. My worries about both are more or less the same, they're both dominant aggressive centre backs which is great, but they've both been fairly limited in sort of football they've been asked to play. Morton play more football than Livingston, but they're still quite direct. I'd worry a bit about them making the step up and adapting their game to a more passing style at the same time, could be a big ask. Suppose it depends how we're going to play next season.

I think we're unlikely to go up and attempt to play really nice football all the time. I've been quite surprised by what I've seen of the Premiership this last season in terms of the physicality. I'm hoping that by adding a bit of steel (either the players mentioned above, or different ones, I don't really care) we'll be able to go to the Ibrox, Parkhead, Pittodrie and Tannadice (oops ) and go toe-to-toe with them. But yes, I agree with you: a bit of composure at the back would be nice. Part of that will come from making sure there's plenty of available out balls and lots of willing runners in front of them.
