pub car king Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 Why the f**k are we waiting until later in the season for half a modest fee, should of told them to f**k right off cash on delivery. Or have we done a buy one get one free with Kevin. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAR Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 Why did we not offer King Kevin a proper long contract? The hard part is finding goal scorers, the decision to keep them should be easy. A previous board lost John Baird to QOS for the same reason. These two have been our only main strikers since Gordon Dalziel & they are why we go to football matches. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he hadn’t worked out as well you would be slating your club for giving out longer deals to duds. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael W Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 No one is going to sign a long term contract and risk being trapped in this fucking league. Who can blame them? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ding Dang Doo Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 Maybe a short career etc but once you decide to sign for rivals he should get pelters. Shows how far we've fallen that we're wishing them good luck now. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These two have been our only main strikers since Gordon Dalziel & they are why we go to football matches. Most people didn’t even want us to sign Nisbet last summer. He was our back up when Loy turned us down. Could you imagine the uproar if we had given someone with 5 goals in 62 appearances a three year deal? He had a great season last year and the board did the right thing offering him a deal when we did. If we had got promoted he’d still be with us. He was never going to agree to a 2/3 year deal with no clauses with us halfway through the season with the possibility of being stuck in League One. I’d genuinely be interested to know what more you think we could have done? Also, I actually think we’ve always done well with strikers in my time. Some of them have been loan signings admittedly but in the last 20 years we have had, off the top of my head: Dargo, Hartley and Agathe both played upfront IIRC, Novo, Sutton, Pereira, P. McManus, Goodwillie, Russell, Weir, Wales, K. Smith, Casalinuovo, Tade, Baird, Graham, Vaughan, Nisbet and Hardie. All of those have either been reliable goal scorers or good players for us which is pretty decent considering our limited success in that time period. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can imagine how that would have gone: RRFC - "Kevin, we might be miles behind Arbroath and we all know it is impossible for us to win the play offs, but anyhow, fancy signing a new 3 year extension all the same?"
