Guest Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 47 minutes ago, ilostmyself said: Felt bad for Lemon, not pretending he was anything but shite for us but it really felt like he was absolutely nowhere near first team level and we shoved him into the starting XI in a panic once it was clear Holt's signings weren't going to cut it. Him, Williamson and Weeks should have only played in absolute emergencies. That said there was a game or two where he looked promising. It was in reality a bullshit scam. Lemon, Weekes (and was it Williamson?) came in under the guise of “development players” who then made massive progress under the Holt/Fergus mentoring, and so were elevated to the first team squad. It was all nonsense. They were always going to be part of the first team squad, but Holt knew well enough that they were nowhere near good enough, so the development story could be spun to make it look like they the first graduates (without playing in any competitive games). Another absolutely class bit of business by Holt. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe too much to hope for though. That looks like the ghost of last season’s Bermuda Triangle of a midfield plus two wing backs that didn’t do a great deal either. McCann can be excepted from criticism as Rennie never gave him a chance. We really need a shedload of physicality brought in, or we are headed for a big chunk of deja vu. No doubt McGlynn is well aware of it, but it all depends if he has the scope and time to fix it. Two weeks tomorrow, and we will have a glimpse of what he has managed to put together in the Crunchie Stand match. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we have to accept, that if we can’t punt them all then some of the contracted players are still going to be part of the squad. I’d gladly get rid of the lot of them but I don’t think it’s going to happen. They are probably the ones I could stomach on the subs bench.

Yeah I'd prefer if he managed to move Nesbitt on, he can only really play as a 10 and even then the majority of the game he's non existent. Williamson downed tools last season too many times and we can't afford that this year, so he can also go. Mccann got a raw deal under Rennie I'd like to see him given another shot as I believe he's got something to offer. Couldn't care less if Mcguffie went or not, he'd be fine as a squad player. Morrison's got the potential to be a key player for us again this year, just needs to really focus on his composure infront of goal.

Some will have to play as there isnt the money to replace them all. Most likely would be full backs where a good performance is as much about them being disciplined in their field position / marking / getting a tackle in rather than being good on the ball. Its no coincidence that our first three recruits have been in the more difficult positions in the spine of the team. I expect the next recruits to be 2 strikers and a centre mid and that might be our lot unless theres bumper ST sales. Therefore I could see McCann and Williamson playing IF they are prepared to work like trojans as McGlynn demands. I recall Hetherington being very good against us for Alloa on a number of occasions so who knows. Again he'd have to show a massive increase in workrate. I see no hope for McGuffie, McKay, Morrison, Wilson, Ross or Nesbitt. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
