Dan Is The Man Posted July 14, 2016 Report Share Posted July 14, 2016 Think you're missing the point. Why bring in 2 similar strikers and halt the development of one of them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJ McG Posted July 14, 2016 Report Share Posted July 14, 2016 Think you're missing the point. Why bring in 2 similar strikers and halt the development of one of them? Hardie can play out wide as well so not sure what your on about? Shanks is better than both Sutton and Clarkson.I'll trust Rae's judgement on this 1 I think.

I'll trust Rae's judgement on this 1 I think. Shanks is better than Sutton?!?! [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] My previous post stated I would have Hardie over Shankland because he brings something different to the table. (The point you've just made) Shankland has similar attributes to Sutton hence why I wouldn't bring him back and hinder his development because I don't think he'll get in ahead of Sutton. It's really quite simple if you read the posts, rather than cream yourself over a lad who only scored 10 in 30 odd appearances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
windae cleaner Posted July 14, 2016 Report Share Posted July 14, 2016 I don't think Hardie will be going out on loan I can see him being involved in Sevco first team this season Why don't we try for change to develop our own forwards instead of developing other teams Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice to have the choice, as Sutton is getting on and could need rested at times. Anyway, at this stage a mute point, he's still at Aberdeen. Rae has made it clear it's quality over quantity this year so no place for passengers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drew Posted July 15, 2016 Report Share Posted July 15, 2016 Where has anyone claimed that Shankland is a better player than Sutton? JJ has said that he would be a better signing, and I'm inclined to agree. We have direct, recent evidence of how Shanks can contribute to a Saints side in this division. Not so, Sutton. That doesn't mean that the latter isn't a decent signing, or is a poorer player. I also think that Shankland is only likely to develop and improve as a player. Not sure if the same could be said of Sutton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FTOF Posted July 15, 2016 Report Share Posted July 15, 2016 It would be great if we could get both Shankland and Hardie. That would leave us looking for a left sided midfielder IMO, to bring us up to our full complement. I'd also like to win Euromillions tonight.....................................

Stu Posted July 15, 2016 Report Share Posted July 15, 2016 Mentioned it on the speculation thread but Douglas McNeil saying on Twitter there will be a signing today or Monday. Wouldn't be surprised if it was Shankland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mart-C87 Posted July 15, 2016 Report Share Posted July 15, 2016 Aberdeen have pretty much made it clear to the boy with these latest signings etc, get him back in and hopefully help us push for play offs at least this year, i think he enjoyed it last year in end up and he needs to be playing games IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would hope they could get him, if available, on a permanent deal. Looks like he is surplus to requirements at Aberdeen.? Maube they will hamg onto him whilst in europe?

Drew Posted July 15, 2016 Report Share Posted July 15, 2016 Shankland on a permanent deal would be fantastic, but highly unlikely, I'd have thought. Despite being down the pecking order in Aberdeen, I can't see why they would let him go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Garf Posted July 15, 2016 Report Share Posted July 15, 2016 Shanks would play with Sutton form me. Clarkson for cover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
