A striker that can score 20 goals a season can't imagine us affording one. Depends whether he is coming from English leagues at level 6 - horror of horrors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wendy Saintss Posted January 18, 2019 Report Share Posted January 18, 2019 Very high risk signing considering how little football he has played in the last 18 months. I’m afraid it’s going to take a lot more than this and Conor Bloody Sammon to excite the fanbase.He’s played 23 games this season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't help but wonder who has pushed for this (McAllister) loan deal. OK must know absolutely nothing about Kyle's capabilities during his time at GHR. Wasn't Gus long gone before Kyle made his first team breakthrough ? So who is deciding our signing policy ? Is it Tony ? Or Gordon ? Who the F*ck is in charge of team selection nowadays ? Please tell me it is OK, regardless of the contrary evidence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK will pick the team - but the management team are all working for the same purpose. This is how is ought to be... No doubt Gordon or Tony have thrown his name into the hat and Gus and OK have been to see him play... If he stays fit he has plenty to offer - at least the same energy as Edwards but with actual football ability - it is a no brainer my friend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More great news Best news yet, glad it was sorted now and we weren't left in the lurch when the window closed. Starting to look optimistic, but lets see this new side in a couple of league games before we get carried away. Should send Hoody's mob packing tomorrow.

Money will be the reason for loan deals, as in still paying wages for the Stubbs signings still under contract, plus not able to commit to a budget when we could be back down a league. You could try for short term deals, but mainly those are guys no one wants, and they would all rather sign an 18 month deal in January.

We already witnessed this with Hayden Coulson and Alfie Jones for the first 3 months he was here. That's not what you said though. You said that he'd played "very little football". Clearly he has played a fair bit. For every Coulson or Jones there's a Dummett or Newton. I presume that you're also putting Brad Lyons into this category too given that he's only really played regularly for Blackburn U-23's.

You said he's played little football in a year and a half and the poster corrected you by saying he's played plenty of football in the last 6 months. Regardless of level, minutes on the park = match fitness and it appears that Kyle is match fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ethan Posted January 18, 2019 Report Share Posted January 18, 2019 Come on give us a signing. Its been at least 2 hours since our last one lol. Squad shaping nicely and still plenty of time to add more quality before the end of the month. All good so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you rather have Kyle McAllister or lee hodson. Depends what position you are talking about. Midfield McAllister, defence Hodson. Impossible to make a decision between players who play different roles. Plus you talk as if one is replacing the other, they will likely play in the same team.

djchapsticks Posted January 18, 2019 Report Share Posted January 18, 2019 At present my starting XI is: ----------------------------------Hladky--------------------------------- -----P McGinn------Ferdinand------Popescu------Erhahon---- ---------------Hodson-------S. McGinn-------Tansey--------------- -----------------------McAllister---------Lyons------------------------ -----------------------------------Jackson------------------------------- Still a few glaring holes in that side but at least looks decent on paper - obviously hard to compare Popescu to Jones just yet or the goalkeepers as we don't know either of them but the only squad member leaving who has notably weakened us on paper is Adam Hammill. Hopefully plenty of creativity and chances to be made between Kyle McAllister and Brad Lyons who are both very attack minded. Once Kyle Magennis gets back as well the midfield looks quite decent from that point of view. From here, a Left back, a proven centre forward (or two if Scott Burns on Twitter is to be believed) and at a push another winger would see us set nicely for the run in and allow us to adapt a few different ways to play.

McAllister looked a better player than Stevie Mallan when they played in the same St Mirren side in the Championship. Stevie Mallan went to Barnsley had hardly got a game, played reserve football and has walked into the Hibs midfield and been one of their top players and top scorers this season.
