Popular Post Bainsfordbairn Posted December 18, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted December 18, 2018 21 hours ago, EdiBairn said: Robson leaving the club. McKinnon undoubtedly has a list of players who'll be shown the door in January. I don't know the full details of that list but I do know one thing: Tommy Robson's name isn't on it. Or if it is, RM hasn't told the FFC BOD, the player himself or the people who would need to know beforehand. (There have been occasions in the past where FFC have helped unwanted players under contract to find new employers. I imagine most clubs do that. No such efforts are being made for TR, nor is the player agitating for a move) Of course, no one knows what'll happen in January. It's possible that an Aberdeen / Hibs / Rotherham type club could come in with a bid which doubles his wages and then he'd be off. It's also possible (and maybe even slightly more likely) that we could offer him a new deal in the summer. Some players will definitely be leaving no matter what else happens over the next few weeks. In Robsons case there are no plans and no certainties, despite all your repeated ITK claims to the contrary. 25 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll be a similar situation to Hippolyte leaving last January IMO. Except it won't necessarily need to be a club as big as Hibs or Aberdeen.

JCBairn Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 4 hours ago, sick boy said: I believe he has started every game and scored a few goals I go to the odd City game as one of my mates is a season ticket holder and it is not far from where I live. I think Sheps has only scored 3 in the league this season and another 4 or so in the cups. To be honest he looked half decent for that level last season but has been pretty rotten every time I have seen him this season and seems to miss a sitter per game. He doesnt really stand out in League 2 and if City get promoted I think League One will be as far as he goes in his career. Balatoni has looked much better than Shepherd and sticks out like a sore thumb in League 2 - I would take him in our team at the moment tbh. The big lad Henderson up front is powerful and a good finisher but reminds me a bit of Deuchar/White - not sure he could cut it in Championship and we probably cant gamble on players like that to get us out of the mess we are in. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you think that we would let Robson go to a St Mirren sized club for what would be peanuts? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshmallo Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 Silly me for not foreseeing that the Chelsea under 23 captain would be humpty. An obvious one to call in hindsight. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hows Faissal getting on? Of course and like a rival football fan I will take the opportunity to mock. He's actually played ok for the most part but hasn't happened for him in front of goals. One of our better performers this season and could do with a regular partner that could hold the ball up for him and take away defenders. Moffat did that very well in League One when Faiss was getting double or treble marked at times. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
