Lord Pityme Posted January 7, 2020 Report Share Posted January 7, 2020 Whilst we all wish both lads announced so far the best, and hope they can get off to a flyer, an allowance has to be made to let them get up to the speed and physicality of our league.Their league finished in November, so they will be rusty and in need of conditioning, as well as match practice. As well as a bounce and cup game, might take another couple of games for them to bed in.Might be frustrating, but better than them pushing too hard, too soon and picking up stress injuries.I know get why the Hull manager suggested Mcloughlin might need a break!He had played most of the Irish season, and half of ours!

Is that so he can come back to us for remainder of season, nice and refreshed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't have sat right with the support if Goody had just not played him till February, and we were shipping goals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TPAFKATS Posted January 7, 2020 Report Share Posted January 7, 2020 Gus has been busy. Have we unearthed a source of talent in Ireland, or did we just change the name from Oran to Gus for some of those easy jet flights we had already booked?

paul torfason Posted January 7, 2020 Report Share Posted January 7, 2020 Honestly thought we would have kept Baird as we kinda still in same position,hopefully bigKirk fit(does anyone no?)then if McCarthy needs game time and not being cheeky but we really cannot depend on McKenzie as he will come back but will probably be out injured again before season ends,so Kirk and McCarthy would be first picks with Bairdy waiting in the wings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Pityme Posted January 8, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2020 Would apply my OP to big Akin as well he hasn't played much football recently, so may need a couple of games if selected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
