He kept us hanging for weeks thinking both Anderson and Nouble were fit and ready to play, then when they finally made the match day squads it was as unused subs. I'm not that bothered if he misses this game, as Nouble fits in really well as a lone striker with how we set up against Sevco, will be a bigger miss if he doesn't make the Aberdeen game the following week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The exact kind of signing Martindale likes to make. Unless your issue is with something different in the article of course. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well firstly as a replacement for Fitzwater; surely that's what De Lucas was signed for; plus, of course, Morgan Boyes has stepped up recently as well. Also we already have two defenders with long term injuries; do we really need another who hasn't played a competitive game in months and for the last three games has been an unused substitute. The way things are I'd hope we were looking for a direct backup to Anderson at the moment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt we'll see Parkes again, Fitzwater will leave, Obileye can be a bit inconsistent and is not currently under contract next season. Boyes is out of contract too. A young CB with experience in the Scottish game is a decent shout tbh. I'd imagine he won't have massive wage demands either Edited February 22, 2023 by Cptn Hooch 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way things are I'd hope we were looking for a direct backup to Anderson at the moment. Seems reasonable to assume we'll still need another CB if Fitzwater leaves, Boyes on the left, De Lucas on the right, and Obileye has played both sides but mostly left CB, having a 4th CB in the squad would be prudent. Forgot about Parkes right enough but it doesn't look like he's ever going to play again, not for us anyway, the length of time he's been out injured. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye QoTS fans said that midfield was his best position, doesn't look particularly comfortable on the ball though, would we really want to see him getting more of the ball playing as a defensive midfielder. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Durnford Posted February 22, 2023 Share Posted February 22, 2023 The main likelihood of this being true would be if De Lucas had proved disappointing in training. TBH wouldn't be the first one who'd impressed in a trial but that had turned out to be the high point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd be signed to replace Parkes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Durnford Posted February 22, 2023 Share Posted February 22, 2023 I assume Parkes is out of contract this summer? Is Jamie Brandon under contract for another year? Then again he's right sided I believe (not that I've ever seen him play). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote Speaking to the Courier, he said: “Bruce will be back. I could probably have gotten away with playing him against Rangers, but he hadn’t really trained at all and I didn’t want to push him and then he ends up missing four weeks because he’s played when he’s not fully ready. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thruthenight Posted February 22, 2023 Share Posted February 22, 2023 I believe that we have an option on Parkes, Obileye and Boyes. With Luiyi signed, and Fitz leaving, then Deas would make a 5th CB. Is that a sensible number to have? Wouldn't be surprised if Parkes or Obileye goes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noticed Nicky Devlin has been losing some of his sharpness; but not all the time great going forward but struggles getting back IMO 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
