pub car king Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 This is a good start Barr is a decent player with good ability, however his attitude is fucking shocking on the park so who knows what it' like in private. First of many i would imagine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Therefore, your gonna need wide players with decent upper body strength and acceleration in order to beat men from a standing start in a tight space. Guys who show up for two months a year, and spend the rest of the time deliberately hiding behind their marker need not apply. IIRC we finished 7th (seventh) in our second season down in League One. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ebanda's Handyman Services Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 A lot of similarities between Barr and Brian Fairbairn. Decent players on their day but lack of consistency and bad attitudes let them down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

San Starko Rover Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 I’ll say good luck to Bobby Barr but I’ll not shed a tear over his departure. An absolute passenger these last two seasons and a poor attitude. I do however wonder who’s choice this isBobby Barr - Fancies he’s better than us. Board - wages too highSmith - realised he’s not good enough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostZapper Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Likewise, not disappointed to see Barr go - time for him to move on, and this was definitely a position that had to be improved! decent enough player when his head was in the game, but I can barely remember a strong performance from him in the last 18 months! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael W Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Spence will go as it's clear Smith doesn't rate him and, at any rate, we will have to suffer another season of Buchanan having the ball launched at him. No point in keeping Spence as well. Spence should've hit 20+ this season, but poor management (dropping him whilst in form and hoofball) have seen that squandered. I'm not really a fan of Spence based on his ability at Championship level, but he is a standout goalscorer at this level. Shame Smith wasted him. He'll go elsewhere and will punish us. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheevedawg Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 I'd definitely have Spence over Buchanan. I wouldn't say he's more technically gifted, or even a better player, than Buchanan but I think he works a little bit harder and his hold up play is definitely much better. There's more chance of Spence heading a ball too. In saying that, did Buchanan not get one or two headed goals last season? I'd give my right leg to have the McKinnon team of 2 seasons ago back. And McKinnon. Do we think there will be more to follow today or will we likely be kept in the dark until the end of May/after the play off finals are done? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hank Scorpio Posted May 11, 2018 Author Share Posted May 11, 2018 Not a huge fan of Spence and think Buchanan is a better all round player. Spence has undoubted goal scoring ability but it’s just a case of a player and a club not quite matching. I’ll wish Barr all the best, the spat with the fans not great and he’s not been as effective as I’d have liked but was excellent at carrying the ball forward from deep positions. Will most likely sign for another L1 team and run ya ragged whilst offering us the big shh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
San Starko Rover Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Guaranteed if Alloa fail in the playoff and we release Spence he’ll sign for them and come back to punish us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALDERON Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Spence went on a decent scoring run when he was playing consistently. I'd have him over Buchanan any day. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paco Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Yep, based on this season Spence was significantly better than Buchanan for my money - and I didn’t really think Spence was great to be honest.I’d keep him if we can get rid of Buchanan. Couldn’t bear another season of them both though, so it’s a bit unfortunate for Spence. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deadly Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Classy... Yeah not the greatest way to go about things. Seemingly he's in for talks today so possibly the call within the week came and he may stay. Interesting times ahead. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
