the barrhead teacher Posted January 25, 2020 Report Share Posted January 25, 2020 Source close to club told me yesterday another striker, a wide player and one other targeted to come in next wee. No names though. Also said Mullen and Cooke going. Deal for Baird to sign for Ayr fell through so back to Morton until summer. How true this all is we will wait and see.

Can’t be true as @Sweeper07 hasn’t told us! 😂 In fact, he told us Baird was coming back! 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've given up on Jack returning. Danny and Cody are on the fringes. We need better service to the front men. Doesn't improve our left back position though.

MenstrieSaint Posted January 27, 2020 Report Share Posted January 27, 2020 How,s this for a team Hladky McGinn McKenzie Famewo Waters Djorkoff Flynn Andrieu McGinn Cooke Mullen All going at the end of the season , which gives us a decent budget to get a few good players in . Perhaps two or three by the end of the week if McGinn moves on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure Baird could have signed for Ayr: he's already played for us and Morton this season. Presumably the 'third' player there will now be a right full back.

Not really been impressed with Andrieu, a constantly injured CB, 2 loan players and 2 fringe players, oh and the captain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovestlegend Posted January 27, 2020 Report Share Posted January 27, 2020 A striker would have been the priority before last week but with Magennis injured and McGinn probably away we now need cover for both. God knows when we’ll see McAllister again. 3 year deal now looking like a disaster. But him and McGrath should at least give us more creativity. I’d punt all 4 of the forward line that started yesterday. None of them reliable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desperately Seeking Susans Posted January 27, 2020 Report Share Posted January 27, 2020 I'm not a statistician but the ratio between minutes played and goals scored might indicate Danny Mullen comes top. I say 'minutes' because Danny has hardly been given a chance this season. I would love to hear the reason why from Mr Goodwin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Off the bench with 15 minutes to go, scores a goal. Some players that thrive in that scenario & Danny has on occasion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stlucifer Posted January 27, 2020 Report Share Posted January 27, 2020 I'm amazed that Saints have ok'd Hibs to talk to McGinn. I can only assume Goodwin has a RB coming in. Flynn has done OK but even if he did better it still means we lose his dig in midfield. As for the strikers. Before ditching Cooke and Mullen, why not give them some decent minutes on the park? Obika and Morias haven't exactly set the heather on fire. Morias runs about like a headless Danny Mullen and I am actually starting to think Obika is bomb proof. He spends most of the game strolling across the park to where the HAD been. When the ball does come to him he can't win a header and he can't trap a ball. He's terrible with his back to goal and his first touch is a godsend to the opposition defence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Pityme Posted January 27, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2020 His contract is up in the summer so he doesn't need the clubs permission.

I would love to hear the reason why from Mr Goodwin.He's the best finisher out of the forwards, including andreu.His lack of height limits his starts playing as a lone forward. I think he'd offer something in a wide role - can only assume the manager doesn't think so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
