Consider me massively underwhelmed, it's wild that considering how light our squad is that we can make a bad signing, but that's a bad signing imo. Hope he comes in and proves me wrong in massive way, but if that's the calibre of player we're bringing in, we're in trouble. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked the look of this lad when he played for us at East Fife. Good turn of pace, and liked to run with the ball taking guys on. I’d be happy with that signing 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that in what was a very, very poor first half team performance he was absolutely anonymous. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 Know nothing about the lad but happy to see competition for places. Might be the right move for him to push on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jings, I thought every time he got the ball he went forward with it, and that happened more than a few times. Will be interesting to see how it turns out though. Hopefully for the better 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
par-adise Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 "Cooper has been training with the Pars all summer. Manager James McPake had to free up budget before he could get a deal done. Cooper was outstanding in a recent closed door game with Livingston and now a contract has been finalised. Cooper is likely to go into the squad for tomorrow’s clash with Hamilton." Interesting few snippets in there. Shows how tight the Board was holding the purse strings if we couldn't get the money for someone like this who is unlikely to be on the big bucks. After having some success under Crawford we haven't been looking to this market enough the last few years. Looking forward to seeing what he can do. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Toun Clock Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 29 minutes ago, WattersIsGod said: he never really got a run of starts with us but was still often a very useful impact substitute. talented, good touch, decent dribbler with a good eye for goal. i generally thought he did his best work off the left hand side and cutting in from there to shoot. if you want to see him at his best, here's a 30 minute hat trick after coming on as a sub (he comes on about halfway through the video). the fact he was back on the bench the next week kind of says it all really. many supporters wanted to see him starting more games and getting a shot in the middle ahead of Jack Leitch. i really liked him and hope he does well.

Heaton Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 (edited) Tbh, they're teed up and if he missed you'd be asking why. Also the fact he's been free and training with us all summer and no one else has taken a punt, doesn't exactly fill me with confidence. We need left sided players too but if can play either side then fair enough. Won't judge until we see him in black and white. Ps. We need to be playing bits n pieces for goals as well.

Nope, we need to bin goal music all together. It's absolutely shite and is utterly bandwagon bullshit for deeply unoriginal clubs, ours included. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salvo Montalbano Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 52 minutes ago, Heaton said: We need to be playing bits n pieces for goals as well. 100% no. I'm not a huge fan goal music, but if we must have goal music then keep Glad All Over. I think it's only us and Crystal Palace that use it. Bits n Pieces is shite (unless you mean the other Dave Clarke Five song of the same name in which case fine, fire away). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andriy_Parmolenko Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 Couldn’t care less about what gets played/doesn’t get played after we score a goal when we’ve yet to score. Lets save those debates for once we get that off our back pls. Good to see the Copper deal go through nice and quick. Don’t know much about him but happy to see a new face. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo*1 Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 Reading the announcement about Cooper - why does McPake have to state so many obvious but not necessary to be stated comments: 'We could have easily have gone out and got a goalkeeper, I’m not saying Tobi was the only one we tried for that’s not true.' 'When Max came in he was young in his career and late to coming in to being a goalkeeper. Over the course of the two seasons he improved but in my opinion not to the level of Championship football in Scotland.' 'Tobi comes in after two loan spells that I’m not too bothered about how they have gone' 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
