Sweet Pete Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 I will be be absolutely nowhere near it personally but had we got a good draw I may have considered it.Hopefully big Fraz makes Nade cry. What day / date's the game? I'm thinking The Wav, pints etc. Best boycott going. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Vojáček Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 You'll never fit into the Cappielow stand then. Dang, neither I will. I think I'll aren't the Morton fans to this fact on the match thread - I trust they'll be sympathetic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Moonster Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Daily Record reporting we're after Ben Gordon on loan. I think I speak for all of us here in saying that would be excellent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But whatever, in ye come. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now if we could only re-sign Andy Geggan, Derek Carcary, Stevie Murray and David McEwan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moving one on to get a holding mid in would make sense for them and we're crying out for a centre half. Let's hope it's not just been made up by those Record wanks. I would take Geggan and the Monk but Stevie Murray and Del can sit on the bench. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sonsanorak Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Bens a right sided cb but if I remember right, so he'd be competing directly with bucky? If i'm right, i cant see him or bucky taking the LCB role. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If i'm right, i cant see him or bucky taking the LCB role. Does it really make a great deal of difference? They'd both be playing centrally so can't see it being a huge issue tbh.I'm still not convinced it will happen in all honesty. I'm pretty sure the Record had us linked with Greig Spence etc during the summer and that turned out to be a load of shite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sonsanorak Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 I'm serious. I'm pretty sure ben played on the right and mick dunlop on the left. The same way that bucky and fraz line up. i know someone'll claim that a pro should be able to play either side, but that doesnt always work out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moonster Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Darren Barr and Buchanan are both right sided and they were fine at centre half. As long as you can read a game it's not a massive issue. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ulysses Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 I'd be pretty happy with Gordon going to you guys. We desperately need a CDM in, so it would free up a bit of cash to get one. Feel a bit sorry for him though, think Rae genuinely expected to have Gordon, Webster, and Baird as his centre halves for the season, but Mackenzie became available and he went for it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squeezeboxson Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 At any level of professional football players should be able to adapt to changes like playing left and right centre back. Even more so in the 2nd tier of Scottish football. If a player couldn't adjust to playing LCB rather than the 'natural' RCB then I don't think they should be playing at this level. Bit of a silly statement in my opinion... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonsanorak Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Aye but you would pick a pair whose strengths compliment each other and suit the style of play you want. you might not pick fraz and play a high line because of his lack of pace, unless his partner can cover for him. You might not pick a centre back who cant pass the ball well if you expect him to have lots of it, such as durnan last week. 2 weeks ago we complained about stevenson playing cdm when we think he's better further forward but still central. i like ben, i like bucky, im not sure that they'd work together or that ben would sign on loan to compete with our fittest and most consistent cb who also happens to play his preferred position. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
