Hank Scorpio Posted June 11, 2019 Author Share Posted June 11, 2019 Presumably Murray will go, then. It’s good to see us holding out for a fee rather than stepping aside and allowing whichever club fancies them to come in and take them. Murray is a strange one. I don’t think he’s ever done badly, but I don’t really know which position is his best. Looked out of place at right back, unnatural at left back and we conceded loads of goals with him at centre half. I’d be more than happy for him to stay on with us, mostly because he has played anywhere and everywhere across the back four and with a small squad we need that versatility, but I don’t really know where we should play him. Stepped up to captain really well to be fair to him, and seems like a natural leader in the squad. Hope he stays. Sort of. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure you're running with a particularly small squad this year though are you? Was sure I read your chairman (or someone on the board!) saying you were aiming for a squad around 22 players. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was sure I read your chairman (or someone on the board!) saying you were aiming for a squad around 22 players. Considering the size of squads we've had the past few seasons that is a small squad by our standards. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paco Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 To be honest I didn’t think Murray did especially well for us until the turn of the year in either of the past two seasons, from which point he was suddenly very good. I’d definitely rather keep him than not, but it wouldn’t necessarily be a disaster if he goes - especially if it forces McGlynn to sign a proper right back. Very encouraging if we’re holding out for an acceptable fee as well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enigma Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 I'm not sure you're running with a particularly small squad this year though are you? Was sure I read your chairman (or someone on the board!) saying you were aiming for a squad around 22 players. This will include several younger players of course, guys like Tait and Watson who probably won’t feature much. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beastie Russell Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 I think Murray’s greatest asset was being Meh, anywhere across the back 4. if we get a fee for him, it will be the biggest steal since we got £100k from Hearts for Ian Ferguson. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be averse to seeing him play there either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael W Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Would much rather we keep Murray, but I'm relaxed provided the fee is reasonable. If we were offered £30k (which I really doubt we have been) I'd take it. The main thing, as has been said, is that we've moved away from the "cannae stand in the boy's way eh" mentality and are actually holding out for a fee. Possibly this is due to our circumstances now, but whatever it is I'm glad to see it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSDR 88 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Considering the size of squads we've had the past few seasons that is a small squad by our standards. Aye the Gary Locke season has to be the biggest in my memory. 107 players easily; a goalie, 4 defenders & 102 forward thinking players with 75 of them not getting a game 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We used six or seven that season.If I can be bothered later on, I'll count up how many goalkeepers we used in what I'm going to call "The Inter-McGurn Period". He was away for three years, and we'll be well into double figures. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two on the bench for one game that season too if I remember right. Good old Gary Locke. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ro Sham Bo Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 We've knocked back a five figure bid for Murray according to the FFP, I can't see any Scottish club offering any more than that for him but maybe Peterborough will give us £30k or something for him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
