ebobsboy Posted June 10 Share Posted June 10 Bit surprised at that one I thought it'd be a loan keeper we signed. Wish the lad all the best. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know fans can be biased etc but they’re usually the best judge of what a player is like. Underwhelming. Hey, don't get too down. You could have ended up with Ross Stewart. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyBlueArmy1876 Posted June 10 Share Posted June 10 Imagine Sneddon will be back up. Would've made no sense to bring in another young keeper that would want game time, we'd just end up in the same situation again as last season 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BPM Posted June 10 Share Posted June 10 20 minutes ago, Roboccop said: My apologies for misleading but I did an interview with McGlynn which is to be published later this week and he said categorically that we were signing a loan player as goalkeeper from a high end club. All I can say is I guess plans change. He missed out on Stone I would wager 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shodwall cat Posted June 10 Share Posted June 10 Always a chance stone was going to get a better offer of a definite number one which we couldn't give him. Sneddon will do a job as a backup probably playing the odd cup game. I doubt it's that easy to get much better in as a number 2 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
18BAIRN76 Posted June 10 Share Posted June 10 Maybe in the minority but I think he’s been signed to be No.1. 85 appearances at Championship level so he’s pretty experienced - played 21 league games for Thistle last season as they finished 3rd. I think he’s in ahead of Hogarth tbh, at least initially. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know fans can be biased etc but they’re usually the best judge of what a player is like. Underwhelming. Re: Sneddon, this isn’t just a snap reaction to a player leaving and signing somewhere else. We’ve had nearly a decade of Jamie Sneddon to know his strengths and weaknesses, and unfortunately they really haven’t changed too much in that entire length of service with us. He’ll make some truly spectacular saves but will let in a horrendous clanger every couple of months. For an overall summary I’d say he’s a really good shot-stopper, decent at kicking, poor communication and overall command of us box. With the odd howler, as mentioned before. He’s a nice guy though so I hope this move works out for him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, was fairly routine to give balanced GK opportunities last season with how it mapped out, not convinced that he will this season. Whoever gets the gig, I would imagine has the slot to lose. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I very much doubt he would've signed up without some kind of confirmation that the situation would be completely different from last season. Now I'm sure he knows as well as anyone else that he will have to perform to keep the jersey but he won't have signed up to not play. Sneddon will get his chance of Nicky slips up and then it's his responsibility to keep it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roboccop Posted June 10 Share Posted June 10 Here from the interview done 17 days ago. No harm now putting this here: “ We will need to bring another goalkeeper, and we have agreed with a club to take one of their goalkeepers on loan (although its not official yet as that’s not allowed) but it’s been agreed verbally. We’ve agreed with another player who’s been playing in the Championship for the past 6 years that he will come to us too (Arbroath’s Michael McKenna was announced after this interview took place). We continuously talk with players who are out of contract. “ i presume the deal fell through. Things happen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grangemouth Bairn Posted June 10 Share Posted June 10 Just spoke to the ticket office/club shop. A post will be coming out soon to confirm that physical season tickets will be available for collection from the shop. She also advised that they expect the shop to be extremely busy tomorrow as the new strip goes on sale. The shop is closed all day Wednesday to allow everyone to attend Gordon’s funeral. Apologies if I’m sharing info that you all already know. Cheers. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMBairn Posted June 10 Share Posted June 10 Sneddon will be fine, the type of player we need in the squad I think. Someone we know can do a job in the championship and will be reliable enough in the sticks if he gets a chance. No doubt he'll have a mistake in him but that's true of every player at this level so nothing to worry about. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally concur & also good to see the very positive comments on Thistle thread re his character which is essential for ease of integration into squad. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending on the design, folk will want one immediately and others will be happy to buy online and wait for delivery. I don't see a reason for a delay in sales starting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFalkirkBairn Posted June 10 Share Posted June 10 Looking at his wiki, he’s just signed for us today and he’s already only 2 appearances away from 100 in the Navy Blue. That’s some effort. A legend in the making! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocco Posted June 10 Share Posted June 10 Looks like Airdrie are victims of their own success as Josh Rae has signed with St Johnstone. They may well recruit well but it won’t be easy losing Fordyce, Ballantyne, Rae and potentially more to come 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
