He started brightly but was a shaddow of the player for most of his time. I am not fussed if he goes I wonder who classed him as a defensive midfielder. He is a tidy enough midfield player but he is not a classic defensive mid. He needs to integrate more in midfield if he is going to progress in the game. I wonder if his agent is struggling to get him a better gig promoting him in this specific position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fmckinn Posted June 14, 2021 Report Share Posted June 14, 2021 I wonder if Kiltie has been brought in with the assumption McGrath will be gone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not fussed if he goesJim admitted JDH's form had dropped due to having no pre season, niggling injuries and the huge number of games in Feb. JDH is an class player and should show his worth next season if we are lucky enough to keep him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know by whom or for how much and what level of consideration it was given but it definitely was placed and I'm guessing was rejected as I heard about it around a week ago. Pretty sure that if the club had received an offer they would have made a statement to either tell them to bugger off or to alert other clubs to get a bidding war going. It would be odd for them to say nothing. Mind you, I know the square root of sod all about what happens at the club so....

scam75 Posted June 15, 2021 Report Share Posted June 15, 2021 Dundee United, surely that is a joke? Are they not skint and appointed a cheapo manager to play the youths or have I missed something?I'm not accepting there is any substance to that article.

Luther G. Presley Posted June 15, 2021 Report Share Posted June 15, 2021 I doubt they could offer more than we have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mid Calder Saint Posted June 15, 2021 Report Share Posted June 15, 2021 To be honest I'm am not fussed if he stays or goes but come on Dundee Utd having a laugh obviously his agent stirring up interest time for JG to move on if there is no definitive in the next 24 hours JDH has had quite long enough I doubt they could offer more than we have.

mattman Posted June 15, 2021 Report Share Posted June 15, 2021 (edited) Be an absolute slap in the face if he ends up there, we’ve had an offer on the table since late last year, getting fed up with it tbh, if he doesn’t want to be here then get him tae! Offer off the table, there will be much better players out there anyway. Some agent he’s got though from holding out for a championship/LG 1 club to potentially signing for a club that finished below us last season.

Gosport Buddie Posted June 15, 2021 Report Share Posted June 15, 2021 Past caring if JDH stays. If he wanted to stay he'd have signed by now. Hopefully Jim has someone else in the pipeline Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJ McG Posted June 15, 2021 Report Share Posted June 15, 2021 With us losing Durmus and Connolly I wouldn’t be against us making a move for Matty kennedy at Aberdeen although they would probably play hard ball due to them wanting McGrath.

scam75 Posted June 15, 2021 Report Share Posted June 15, 2021 He was an almost every present for them last year. I personally think they have f all chance of signing McGrath from us. But if Kennedy was available yeah defo. Unless of course Dundee United blow us out the water after landing JDH [emoji1787] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another guy who likes a dive to con the referee and has about 2 good games a season. It's a no from me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We seem to rate him and want him but can't agree terms yet United have got him interested? United look like a club with financial concerns, were pretty meh last season and have just appointed an inexperienced manager. From the outside we look like by far the better bet.

This will then show case whatever talent he has. With us he has been asked to play deeper and be more a defensive midfielder, which he isn't good at, but the reason he has potentially preformed poorer is he doesn't want to play that role either. I think he wants to be in the McGrath role personally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we were signing JDH I feel it was to play the same deeper Role again when asked and he doesn't like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think McAllister would actually do better in this role than his current right wing role as he doesn't seem to have the legs for that type of running anymore to beat a man to the byline. He has a decent shot on him too. I think its only a matter of time before McGrath leaves. If its this summer, we need to work with what we have to fill that role, unless we have someone else in mind. A hatchet man in the middle/creative midfielder to work with Erhahon, move McAllister to a more off the striker role as an option, work on bringing a couple of more wingers in that can work a high press and have the legs for it, since Durmus and Connolly have departed.
