I think having him along side Broadfoot can only make him better. Come back Bairdy Come back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turrabuddie Posted November 15, 2019 Report Share Posted November 15, 2019 Every cloud has a silver lining ?While I am disappointed that Broadfoot is out for a few weeks, it will force JG to bring back the Bank, which I am pleased about. I thought he would have started against Hearts to try and nullify the physical presence of their big centre forward.He wins most crosses into our box and I’ll be happy to have him back against County.

Ross Stewart had him in his pocket the entire game and we took no action to resolve the mismatch. This game is one for 3 CB to cover their height when they attack , and no not just their strikers.. Big Gary was culpable for Hearts 5th ! Bring back Bairdy !!!! And sign a quality LB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morton were leaking more goals without Jack and with their other CB and RB out injured it is no surprise they are struggling defensively. My take is JG wanted to make his own mark on our team. And sending Jack out on loan gave us some income to add to the January window budget. Bairdy has a lot to offer us, though defensively, we have generally been doing okay... money needs to be spent on players who will create and score goals for us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornwall_Saint Posted January 7, 2020 Report Share Posted January 7, 2020 Bairdy staying with M*rt*n until end of season Can’t say I’m happy about this, unless we are aiming to bring in another CB. Mack and Broadfoot’s injuries have shown having 3 CBs, including two of their age is not a good way forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goodwin did say that we needed at least one new central defender so that hints that another may arrive. However, McGinn and Foley have both shown they are capable of playing central defence. And with Flynn doing well at right back and Cammy McPherson emerging in central midfield, maybe we have enough cover already. If 3 centre halves is good enough for Manchester City then I’m sure it’s good enough for us! What is certain is that Goodwin doesn’t rate Baird.

The problem with Paul McGinn playing CB is that we have no full back cover on a normal day, hence as you state above the inclusion of Flynn at RB. It might be okay for now, but there’s a reason Paul is a RB and Ryan is a midfielder, and at some point I fear they will be exploited and ripped a new hole. I’ll give you Foley, who seems to be one of our most competent players. I can’t say much on him as I don’t see the games, but those who do will know if we are missing something from Foley not being in midfield, or if we are better as a team with him at CB.

djchapsticks Posted January 7, 2020 Report Share Posted January 7, 2020 This wouldn't be happening unless we we're certain another centre half was on the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So he was always going out the door one way or another.I think Goody is gambling that Conor hits the spot, and the crocs return from the physio table.Let's hope so. Foley can slot in there, but we lose his drive in midfield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like him, though in order for him to get first team football every week, it is probably best for his career for a move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
