Ding Dang Doo Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 It still might be a striker.. . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R.R.FC Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Well no, because Petrie covers Left Mid and Left back also and has played a number of games at this level and the one below as opposed to Matthews who has 1 senior start and needs experience. There is money left for at least 1 striker and possibly a loan too. Dare I say, strength in depth... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheevedawg Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Really hoping it's Hannes Anier. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADMO Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Surely has to be Davo, or worse, Black LOL ... Serious though, I really enjoyed Davo's time at us, probably 1 of the few who really liked him, and I would be happy if its him IF we didn't already have 45874389573 midfielders and a solid backline once everyone is fit (Toshney & Bene probably looked one of the best pairings I had seen here in a long time, then Barrs to come back with a 2 year deal and Bates is there to, we definitely don't need another CB) ... It reeks of a "Ross Perry" last second deal like last season and I'm never a fan of these late dealings ! However I suppose whoever it is I'll still get behind, feel its important we really do try get behind everyone this season 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kev23 Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Shite. Massive backwards step. Ridiculous signing a centre midfielder when we have so much cover there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paco Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Can only assume McKinnon wants to play 3-5-2 sooner rather than later, and isn't prepared to wait for Barr coming back or to play Bates there regularly. Really not happy about this. Completely at conflict with everything McKinnon has said and done since arriving... young players, hungry players, good footballing players, give our own youth a chance, passing, movement.... With four centre halves (Benedictus, Toshney, Barr, Bates) and five CM's (McCord, Callachan, Craigen, Petrie, Matthews), I can't think of a single reason to sign anyone in that position let alone Davidson. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1RonnieCoyle Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 McKinnon was always going to sign an older player, wasnt taking the chance of keeping. Youthful squad, with all our grumpy unhappy at everything fans, Davo is a good signing, still has a lot to offer, has experience, can play in couple of positions so goes by mckinnons status of having a utility squad, don't think bates is fully ready for a full season. But he will only get better, Davo toshney and Benedictus as a back 3 would be good for us. People forget Davo was at us when we were at our worked, and slowly getting better only to get worse again, and was an easy target for abuse due to him being local. The lad took endless amounts of shit from key folks only to still come back to us. Good singing in my opinion, but haters going to hate eh! -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADMO Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Stick to my statement above ... I like him & enjoyed his time here, but he's not what we need ... We have 2 fit Strikers, 1 of which could well leave in Jan leaving us with 1 Striker ... There is absolutely 0 reason to use a Wage on ANOTHER CM/CB ... But hey, lets get behind the team I suppose, still a very weird signing ... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojito Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 I'm no davo lover but he did go onto albeit slightlybigger and better things last time round. We have to assume that he was the best option for what we were after. Let's just hope he has calmed down with the pointless lunges and needless bookings. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pub car king Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 I would say use him sparingly as a utility player. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broken Algorithms Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Truly baffling signing. We've got plenty of midfielders. Sure, he can cover at centre back but we're only going to be missing Bene for a week and Toshney is ahead of schedule. Up top we're missing Vaughan for the rest of the season. Am I right in saying that Dumbarton fans said Megginson looked at his best up top? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same fannies that moan week in, week out on this, they'll never be happy. We will still bring in a striker on loan. My guess is shankland from Aberdeen. Missing the game today because on holiday but fancy us to sneak a 2-1 win. Stewart and Anderson with the goals. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
