Drew Posted January 18, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 Good luck to him (with the usual caveat). Of the players I'd be happy or relaxed to see leave, Jason was well down the list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pozbaird Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 (edited) Thanks for your efforts. That's that done. Now my attention turns to the players still here, and in trouble at the foot of the table with 14 games left.

That's that dine, Now my attention turns to the players still here, who need to show some balls, and quickly. Indeed. I'm now a bit concerned about the absence of cover for the full back positions. Is JR thinking 3-5-2, with wingbacks? I can't think of many obvious candidates for that role, to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Ross County had registered him after 25th June this summer (Naisy's 23rd birthday) we'd have got £0 for him. As such, with 5 months left of his contract to run you can only imagine this to be a "nominal fee". I'd guess £20K max. Must have been enough to tempt Jack into cashing in now, could pay for a couple of players to the summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack has been moaning about lack of a left back since he came in the door, so a new left back coming in, Irvine moving to right back, and spends on one more player would be my guess.

I won't lie, the idea of Irvine continuing in either full back position doesn't fill me with confidence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slow as a week in the jail and is never near the player he is meant to be marking. Still dont see how playing left instead of right changes either.

Frank McGarvey' wonky legs Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 So you can't see how playing him in his position will help him? Good point. [emoji38] His best years are well behind him usually like the player he is meant to be marking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank McGarvey' wonky legs Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 Maybe a nominal fee with a 30% sell on clause. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hambud Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 Cant figure out how changing the side of pitch he is on will make him be able to run faster or mark people . Or not fall over gifting a goal to the opposition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
