The Original 59er Posted September 3, 2024 Report Posted September 3, 2024 Unless I've missed something obvious, the only reference to our siging of Kevin Van Veen is on the "Rumour" pages, where normally a bit of gossip / news eventually creeps its way onto the main pages when it becomes a realuity. However, I will say, welcome Kevin, I know we wanted to sign you last season and you chose Kiliie over us, but as has been explained elsewhere, money may have been at the root of that decision. I have been saying for some time that a "fox in the box" or at least a plyer who naturally knows his way to find the net is something our team has struggled to find over the past few seasons, in fact if I think hard on this point, I would say that strangely, Mark Yardley was the last player who had that natural ability to know where the net was. Steven Thompson came close, but I would say that MY shaded him on the opportunities that came his way. So I have to hope that KVV can match his previous exploits at 'Well and find his shooting boots and prove that there are 10 to 20 goal heroes out there and that we will celebrate his input as the season continues.

Obviously there is this reference Kevin Van Veen joins on loan from Groningen (stmirren.com) Maybe the international break etc has slowed down the usual scarf pics and personal interviews from taking place. On what he may bring, he will need service, a deft pass or pinpoint crosses into the box and a renewed partnership with Mandron which seemed to work at M'well. Quote

A key point that must be remembered. Without decent service Haaland wouldn't score. Quote

Undoubtedly That may not be the end of it for us as the dates that the club became aware of certain information will now need to be made public as a matter of consistency, and the lack of an announcement is now questionable ETA, according to the court schedule he was up before the Sheriff at 10:00, so the club should know the current state of proceedings by now Edited October 31, 2024 by beyond our ken Quote

May not have been called yet. Quote

beyond our ken Posted October 31, 2024 Report Posted October 31, 2024 I think we can safely say he won't be on the pitch anytime soon A very serious list of offences have been alleged. Makes the "thug" Rooney look like a choirboy in comparison Quote
