LIVIFOREVER Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Ohright, thought because they were already Livi players we could have them playing for us at any time, usually there is the option to bring them back from a loan spell but seeing as their loan deal is over I didn't think it would be a problem, 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdinburghLivi Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 (edited) Think it's too late to reregister Mackin or Hamilton. Completely agree though, we may have left ourselves too short up top. 2. Jack McMillan - May 2019 4. Alan Lithgow - May 2020 8. Scott Pittman - May 2019 14. Keaghan Jacobs - May 2019 15. Dylan Mackin - May 2019 16. Matthew Knox - May 2019 18. Lee Miller - May 2019 23. Raffaele De Vita - May 2020 31. Declan Gallagher - May 2019 Is there anyone else signed for next season? That's a good base to build from.

LogieLivi Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Forgot about Jack playing for 2 sides already. Surely mackin is registered as a livi player as soon as his loan ends since he's contracted to us He may be contracted to us however the loan deal is a contract that usually lasts until after any playoffs. Brechin could have ended up in the relegation playoffs therefore he would still be a Brechin player. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack has been at Penicuick and Berwick Rangers this season. Also his loan deal won't run out until after the playoffs. ETA - That's why Tony Watt has not been able to sign for another club since January as he has already played for 2 clubs this season before being released. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You missed de Vita too Yeah Rafa is another midfielder who can be played up front but a natural striker would be better, and we don't have any outside Miller and Hardie. It is more of a 3 up front to salvage our play offs than replacing one of our strkers, just as a back up if needed, like the goalie who comes up for corners. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely we had the option to call back loan players though, everyone has it, usually. Does playing outside of the SPFL count, his first team was a junior one? Hopefully we wont need it but always better to be prepared, and we're def lacking a third stiker for that scenario. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might be wrong however I'm sure you can only recall players now during the transfer window. The loan can be terminated by the loaning club but not the parent club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to say that, think it only counts for teams within the SPFL - Penicuik probably wouldn't come under that. Would be best for the club to at least check. Anyone heard about prices for the playoffs at all either? 8 minutes ago, EdinburghLivi said: 15. Dylan Mackin - May 2019 16. Matthew Knox - May 2019 Fully expect those two to get punted and free up a wage. They'll likely tell Mackin to find another club if he wants to play and we'll take anything anyone will throw at us for Knox - hopefully spark a bidding war from some clubs interested. Saw a few players being released re: Taiwo, O'Ware and Stelios Demetriou - think any of those three may do a job for us once we figure out where we are squad wise and division wise 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdinburghLivi Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 O'Ware is a good player but I imagine if he is leaving Morton, he has his sights set higher. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EdinburghLivi Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 (edited) Rafa was an excellent striker for us but I don't think now he offers anything different from Hardie and Miller. Could definitely do a job if one of them is injured. Edited April 29, 2018 by EdinburghLivi 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIVIFOREVER Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Yeah Hamilton and Celtic got their loan players back early, esp Celtic, dunno what happened with Thompson, he was hardly here long enough to decide it wasn't working, but I think if either of them approached us wanting them back we'd have agreed to it, and that would be the case or our players out on loan too. Doubt a club wants bad blood with another club who has loaned them players, for future loan Just now, Cptn Hooch said: Rafa was a striker before he was a midfielder So was McPake but you wouldn't have called him one after he went into defence. Rafa has been playing on the wing and the odd time up front, same as Robinson and Cadden. Frizzell is meant to be able to play there too but he's also a midfielder, i'd rather we had a big goal scoring striker as a back up though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATLIS Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 I can see it now, Jack Hamilton scores a last minute header to see us go up v Partick. 0-1 agg score over two legs - instant Livi hero, Then for us to realise he wasn't allowed to play and it was an admin error on our part and as such forfeit the game 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cptn Hooch Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 So was McPake but you wouldn't have called him one after he went into defence. I wasn't saying he is still a striker but he still carries a goal threat like mcpake did...I see your point about not having another recognised striker as such but we have plenty of goal threats in the team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
