Dowds is an unfortunate one, as he’d have fitting into what we want for our strikers, but Partick had him on a PCA early on. Surely they wouldn’t loan him to us, eh? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CALDERON Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 Has Murray actually said anywhere he's keen to keep Connell? There was an article in the Courier regarding loans, but simply said Killie were happy with the experience he was getting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure he said something about talking to the club. Hopefully it's to arrange to meet them ar Harthill or something to hand him back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might well be The Championship would suit him, but if not he'd be a very expensive mistake. We've certainly had enough of those recently. Would’ve been a better move than the fuckin rapist imo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He clearly had no issue with strikers then. Even in his second spell, he managed to get hold of Maclean, and took punts on Duku and Ugwu so it's not like he had a congenital blind spot. Also, Murray - based on his comments about midfield prior (paraphrasing, but: it helps but doesn't win you games) suggests to me he isn't really a ball control first type of coach but has adapted his style to the players still at the club. I think if he could launch a quick ball at two quality strikers, he would. I’d love to see another Gary Wales type striker. He was fucking awesome. Injuries and all. He made up for it in goals. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pub car king Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 The scout just scouts other teams we are due to play and doesn't look for players. "Offloading" players is easier said than done due to them having contracts that need to be honoured. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dismal remembering about Brian Graham, Nisbet and Tade etc when you look at current. I get second hand embarrassment when big John actively looks to sign autographs and a wee boy keeps him out the team. Just doesn’t feel like the Rovers are in a good place right now, hopefully something clicks on and off the park.

Broken Algorithms Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 The clubs literally offering to sell players to the first bidder and some folk are thinking we're going to be getting better than Kyle Connell in January?

Ross seems to have had a recurrence of a long term injury that has largely kept him out this season, so good luck with that. Same with Matthews as well. Would hate to sell Stanton - a really good player as you say - but Easton, Gullan and Vaughan all play that position as well so if we had to lose someone I reckon he'd likely be the highest earner of the four (Gullan is another who likely is on fair swedge) in that position.

Exactly my point though we are in a bad way financially yet contemplating resigning Connell however on the flip side has Gullan been any better no he’s done nothing TBH and I stated at the time a panic signing by Mcglynn on a 2 and a half year deal my god 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
