Reggie Perrin Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 Is this true about Queen’s Park not being amateur anymore? I am stunned that they would change this [emoji33]Changed status late last year.Sensible move with the aim of making them competitive and avoiding the fate of the Shire and Berwick. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reggie Perrin Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 McShane and Tidser could both get gigs in the Championship if M & M do deem them surplus to requirement. I'm still waiting for Tidser to have a run in the team and show us the player we all thought we'd signed in the Summer. It is looking less and less likely to happen now Frankly I'd be delighted if this is the only business we manage in the rest of the window: Keep McManus Longridge signed up McShane ---> DKD Durnan ---> Literally any CH Very surprised that the DKD laddie remains without a club. Could be a wee bit rash and impulsive but definitely a decent player and would improve our midfield.Does anyone know if he is even on our radar? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stainrod Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 He doesn’t want a £500 a week gig and that’s all we pay now. I can’t blame him he could play part time in the 6th div in England and get the same money part time and have a job on top. I think he came up here thinking he could make it and kick on to something better . It just seems to not have worked out for him ! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ka202 Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 Would be delighted to see Ian McShane leave. He just offers absolutely nothing at all. He’s been here a year now and aside from missing a penalty against Ayr and scoring direct from a corner against Inverness I can’t think of anything else he’s done or a game that he’s properly impacted.As for Tidser? Meh. Will be comfortably our highest earner I’d have thought and he can’t get off the bench these days. Obviously something happened there for M&M to not even yet give him a run in the team but if we’re not going to play him we’re as well getting him punted and using the money to strengthen elsewhere.Tidser is not the highest earner at the club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gav-ffc Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 If Tidser can get a loan until half the season and play week in week out in day the championship it’s a no brainer and then we have a fit Tidser coming back for next season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loans seem to be more and more prevalent these days but often seems to be a precursor to a permanent deal or otherwise, the players exit from his parent club. Cant see Tidser going away somewhere else then coming back to play for us. If his problem is he doesnt fancy the league and wants to wait till we are up to start playing, well he can GTF tbh. All of that said, I am finding the Tidser thing frustrating and am in the camp that he hasnt performed terribly when used and clearly needs a run in the team, in an attacking position. Have pretty much accepted though that it's not happening and we wont find out why. That's why it's best he goes. We are spending money on something we evidently dont intend to use. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocco Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 Alternatively we play him week in week out and have a fit Tidser this season.Something smells with his situation at the club.I honestly don't think league 1 suits him, as daft as that may seem. With Morton he was used to playing against teams that would be going for the win, however, when I've seen him play with Falkirk, he seems to struggle to create anything as there are that many players in front of him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Tidser's best season at Cappielow was when we were going for the title (and doing a better job of it that than Falkirk are at the moment). He had Bachirou doing his running for him and BMMMH driving forward giving him a bit of space and time as well. He definitely needs a team set up to make the most of his qualities and mask his detriments but having a team sitting back in front of him playing defensive isn't a great issue if the team's style suits his strengths. He was never much to shout about under Duffy at Cappielow when we were a bit more route one. Moore, McKinnon and JJ's styles might not have worked for the team as a whole but got the best out of Tids. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Show how bad a job McKinnon was doingWe seem far more positive under M&M. I actually agree with Miller's interview after the game on Saturday that we would have probably drawn that game in the past after they got one back 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadwell Dog Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 If we can get a decent couple of signings in and keep hold of who we have we should do ok. Until we play against Airdrie, Raith, East fife again though its difficult to say how much we have improved. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrDust Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 13 hours ago, JulioBairn said: I don’t think Tidser will go to Queens Park, think he will end up being loaned somewhere. McShane to QP I think is a possibility. They are looking to go full time No chance McShane either, 18 month ago in the top league to the bottom league, if either are going it will be to the championship. I'll be surprised if Queens Park go full time with crowds of 500+ and the kinda wage they would have to pay to get players to drop to that level. See Gretna mk2 if they do 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranaldo Bairn Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 Have I missed something about the QP situation? I know they voted to go pro a few weeks ago, and they sold Hampden, but they are doing up Lesser Hampden aren't they? There's also no way I can see their board/committee throwing money around carelessly. I never saw anything about a Calum Melville type coming in either, although I may have missed it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
