Broken Algorithms Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 I'm all for him coming back, if only to see the number of tweets being deleted. I've probably got a few in there myself. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raith Against The Machine Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 The announcement retweeted by Craig Cairns, too. I liked Murray more than most, and while I think he suffered a bit first time around with being shunted into both fullback positions on occasion, it is nice to have someone else who's played there before when we inevitably have 15 players missing again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALDERON Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 Aye that rumour was going around on Saturday. He's a Championship standard centre half, that would do me just fine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael W Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 I would not say I'm overly enthusiastic about that, but we really need a CB and I am not sure who else there is out there right now that's free and available. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrossgatesCynic Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 Murray wouldn’t get the level of hype Hamilton, or even Mullin, received but he’d absolutely be a solid signing. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would take him back for the fact he’s a leader and played and won at this level…. but I would never for forgive or forget the way he left previously but that’s just me though 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't really give a shit that he went to Dunfermline, it was a step up from playing another season in league 1 tbh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he put in a transfer request and threatened to chuck the toys if it didn't go through. Football is a business, and a career for a player is short - let bygones be bygones. He's likely the best option available to our knowledge. I'd fully expect he'll get three or four offers from clubs at our level. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basing any negativity on signing Murray because he left us for Dunfermline is rather petty. Interestingly a few Hartlepool fans were saying on Twitter Murray put in some good performances towards end of the season. On the flip side they think Paterson is one of the worst players they've seen in a Hartlepool shirt. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were actively celebrating RT leaving and he was one of our best right backs since the turn of the century. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoBNob Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 When he was linked with us earlier in pre-season you had a few fans on here who were very critical of him, some laugh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been a point of discussion in this thread loads but there really is a complete lack of centre halves who are recognisable available options. Bottom end top tier clubs can obviously put the boat out and attract foreigners (Mexico to Dens Park) but by and large it's slim pickings. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's probably a bad reflection that players who are good in our league aren't good enough for League 2 in England. On the other hand, Paul Hartley has consistently demonstrated that he's a terrible manager, so there is that as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its fairly obvious even watching League Two football in England that the standard is higher than it is here in the Championship, overall fitness, size, tactical and technical ability is ahead of here. Like jimmy Nicholl at Millwall in the 90's, Hartley badly underestimated the standard there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stardog_champion Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 I’d rather take Patterson than Murray. Hope he does go to the Tractor Boys, or will go back to his beloved Pars. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
