Drew Posted February 8, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 Just imagine, for a moment, that this thread was about Jack Baird. I know it is a bit of a stretch, but try your hardest.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then again, who am I to talk about going off topic. Maybe need to start an "Off Topic" thread where folk can take things to. Shull, get it started, there's a good lad. If he did do you think he'd just keep it on topic about it being off topic or would he go off topic about being on topic? Anyway.... About Jack Baird.

W6Saint Posted February 1, 2019 Report Share Posted February 1, 2019 Well deserved. Gets a lot of unwarranted stick. 150 apps at 22 for a centre half is phenomenal and he will only get better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Original 59er Posted February 1, 2019 Report Share Posted February 1, 2019 After the game against Hibs I changed my Top Man from Captain Courageous to Jack as I do see an improvement in him and a desire to defend better each season. Time will tell if he gets the advancement he deserves, but at least he has shown commitment to the Buddies, more than I can say about one or two others.

All the best for this Contract JACK Score a few in the opposition net and keep ours goal free as often as possible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gc_SMFC Posted February 2, 2019 Report Share Posted February 2, 2019 Fairly surprised he's got a new contract. I don't think he's developed that well at all, and still needs someone to guide him through games despite the amount of games he's played. Which is a major worry with the mistakes he often makes. The first Hibs goal really highlighted how poor he is, and unfortunately it's not a one off.Still hopefully he can come good, but he has a lot to do.

Really, Shaw was left by Erhahon and Jack was marking Kamberi - did Kamberi score - No but Jack then had to cover them both - tell me how you do that when they are several yards apart? Baird is the one who all the managers keep - doesn't that say something about his character and talent to you? Sure he is human and will make mistakes - but it helps him no end when fans are putting the blame on him for the short - comings of other players - often the midfield . . . The fact that you are "Fairly surprised he's got a new contract." tells you that you don't know much about being a CB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that you are "Fairly surprised he's got a new contract." tells you that you don't know much about being a CB.Baird plays everyone on by about 4 yards.His positioning is generally suspect. He gets bullied out of games easily. His distribution is awful.He was third choice and the championship, and just isn't cut out for regular Premiership football.I know fine well that the midfield doesn't help, but Baird is often his own worst enemy.If he wasn't a youth player with us, then he'd get judged correctly.

stlucifer Posted February 2, 2019 Report Share Posted February 2, 2019 (edited) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Has the lad stole your daughter or are you just venting your anger because you don't have the talent and potential he has?

proudtobeabuddy Posted February 2, 2019 Report Share Posted February 2, 2019 To be fair to Jack he's not had a consistent partner in that position which is always very important. Good news on the contract extension. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Pityme Posted February 2, 2019 Report Share Posted February 2, 2019 Bairdy is SMFC through and through, and always put himself on the line, sometimes to his detriment, but nevertheless he cares, which is more than can be said for some. All that said a two year deal seems about a year too long imo. maybe they felt he would move on if he was offered less? After the Stubbs era you would have thought with the exception of youngsters breaking through, contracts would be one year max? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

munoz Posted February 2, 2019 Report Share Posted February 2, 2019 Having someone as experienced as Ferdinand in the squad this season can only help Jack. Deserves his extension and will get better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ged62 Posted February 2, 2019 Report Share Posted February 2, 2019 He’s fully committed a true buddy still think there is room for improvement & think he plays better with a good experienced CB bedside him. Has goods & bad games like any player, they all make mistakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callum Gilhooley Posted February 2, 2019 Report Share Posted February 2, 2019 Like most people I think he plays better with a good experienced pro beside him..... but who wouldn’t ?Sure he makes mistakes, but can anyone tell us which of this team, and last years for that matter doesn’t.
