Albeit proven experienced goal scorers are extremely hard to come by. Usually the younger strikers are a bit raw and get bullied around by the experienced defenders. Hopefully that's not the case though and he can prove me wrong. I'm guessing he will get given a run out tonight against the colt team. Go on grab yourself a few goals tonight son! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pretty much exactly the type of guy I was expecting to bring in tbh. Look at the full time teams in our division, Falkirk have Anton Dowds and Jaime Wilson as 2 of their 3 strikers, Cove never added anyone up front this summer and neither did Queens Park, although they already have a decent line up for this level in Murray and McHugh. Airdrie are the only ones who have significantly added to that area and I'm not sure any of those players are in our price range, aside from maybe Jordan Allan. There aren't many good strikers dropping to this level any more, the only two strikers I'd have liked to see come in that other clubs have signed are Russell McLean and Kyle Connell - we don't have enough cash for the former and the latter went to East Fife when we were clearly waiting on Schiavone. My worry is the Hearts website doesn't particularly describe him as your typical number 9 striker, we really need someone to lead the line when Orsi is tired/injured, I'm not sure we need a wide man that can fill in up there, we've got about 6 of them. This lad has been around the Hearts first team squad the last two summers and was handed a two year deal earlier this year though, you'd like to think that is an encouraging sign. I'm happy to trust Faz here and look forward to seeing the guy play. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 My concern is that he doesn’t really sound like what we need and falls into the Orsi/Syvertsen/Hopkirk category of being a guy who can play as a striker but isn’t really an out and out striker. Hopefully he knows where the goal is and can establish himself as our 10 a season man. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Vojáček Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 (edited) In other news, Stevie Aitken has left EK. It seems like he was previewing the game as normal in the press, had a meeting with the board and left due to "increasing work commitments." I'm not sure I fully believe the reasoning. But there you are. Edit: https://twitter.com/TBLowerLeague/status/1425113069500370946?s=19 Edited August 10, 2021 by Jan Vojáček 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BallochSonsFan Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 (edited) I'd be none too happy if our manager was sitting with a massive stauner at the mere fact that the team were playing Rangers B Could he end up in the west of scotland league, or is he walking away from football completely?

Either way they’ve had a terrible start to this season and his insistence on signing old guys with reputations and nothing to prove has been his undoing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jan Vojáček Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 Hoping we shuffle the pack a wee bit for tonight. I've no idea what Paton and Boyle's fitness levels are like - but it would be good to see them on the park (and according to the preview McKee is the only injury doubt with Sam and Lamont isolating). If I was Faz (and assuming Paton is fit enough) I'd be tempted to give Geggan 60 minutes and Paton 30. I'd like to see us with something like this: Erskine Lynch McGeever Buchanan Boyle/Muir Geggan Wilson Duthie Pignatiello Syvertsen Schiavone Not wanting us to risk Maclean, Hoppy and Orsi ahead of Saturday, and it could be a good opportunity to get some gametime in Norway's legs. Wee Callum Wilson is a joy to watch too and deserves a start. I'd be really interested to see him alongside Geggan or Paton. If I wasn't working and on comms then there isn't a chance I'd be going to this tonight. But hopefully we can put this group of 'highly rated' children to the sword. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
