optimistic Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Maybe we should start being realistic again, beaten by 4 full time teams, livi probably should have beaten us the last time, Raith, bogey team, why was mcginn a jack Ross signing exactly? Especially him not being the Manager? I would probably put them on a par Murray /Ross, maybe it's just our bad spell (hopefully) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockstar Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Jack knows Paul McGinn, he is high up in the PFA. I am always realistic - that's why I am a bit worried about our current situation 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thommo90 Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Always feared when We lost Jack Ross that Ian Murray might struggle and this is looking the case. Squad looks very thin on numbers and quality at the moment. If we don't get at least 2 more decent players in then we may drop like a stone. Striker needed and we have the worst 2 full backs I can remember. Need some leadership on the park and straightforward tactics from the management Bit harsh on van zanten, has played well to be fair since around the 0-0 at easter road after a mince start. Canny play as a wing back though granted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howlin' Wilf Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 If Jack Ross was the brains then why didn't that show in the first half of our first season in this league under Alan Adamson? Why such a turnaround when Murray took over? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howlin' Wilf Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 A rather terse and factual statement on the OS about Nish. Clearly the club feels they are well rid. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canny play as a wing back though granted. Agree with this. DVZ has been great, especially since he came back into the team a few weeks back, but is not a wing back. Granted, I thought he was our best player away to Raith last week! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cedrick1 Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Always sad when someone leaves and appears to be controversial . Good luck nishy as you'll be missed at the rock . I agree for height should have won more in air but over last year out best performances have had a fair contribution from nishy and out worst when he was missing from starting 11. No one in current squad even challenges for kick outs at the moment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one in current squad even challenges for kick outs at the moment. Nish hardly ever attempted to really go for them, just moaned to the ref about any slight contact from defenders, if he jumped in like he wanted to win the headers he would have won most. So glad he's away, hopefully this loan thing means we get another loanee in that has the same effect Kane did last year and still be looking to use the wages freed up from nish, shug etc to get some depth to us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockstar Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 I am not saying that Jack Ross was the brains but it is obvious that he worked well with Murray and had good contacts in the game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cedrick1 Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Yip hope the next week brings in a couple or three players cause we need them. Badly need them. Not convinced about the scotland rumours. How fit will he be??? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowdenbeath Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 What's a 'development loan'? If we have 1 more loan available then that's a huge boost. In ye come Lawrence. Its a loan for a youth player who is still of age to play in the Development League and doesn't count towards the 5 regular loans that you can have in a season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moonster Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Jack Ross maybe wasn't the brains but the players loved him and I think that influence showed on the park. I read above that Paul McGinn was a Jack Ross signing, that may be true but I'm told Owen Ronald was signed on Jacks confidence in him so you win some you lose some. Still, Jack is long gone and Nish has joined him so we need to move on and concentrate on improving what we have. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike rankine Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 No one in current squad even challenges for kick outs at the moment. Can't agree with that. Garry Fleming challenges for every kick out within his area of play. He wins more than his fair share too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You clearly have a short memory - or else you haven't watched us for long. We've had way worse full backs than the present two; even in recent times. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cedrick1 Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 No he doesn't !!! And yesterday as our main striker did hid best work ride right and couldn't cross in as he wasn't in the middle. Garry Fleming is a terrific midfielder and support player at this level. He is not a main striker/ target man and unless we realise this soon we have problems . At times Gary gets caught under kick outs and is easily beaten aka yesterday/ raith and qos 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Quitely Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Would it be possible to elaborate? Pretty poor from one of our most experienced players. It was contractual apparently, nothing to do with the football aspect. Anyway, he's away now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why such a turnaround when Murray took over? Perhaps Adamson wasn't listening to him Wilf, added to the fact that the players simply didn't 'believe' in a manager who had come to be in charge of a Championship team by dint only of being an inexperienced assistant to the previous (sacked) manager. That may be supposition on my part, but I remember being in hospitality before a game when an experienced Sons player exited the ground before kick-off after a blow-up with the manager. That suggests there were issues Wilf, and never mind Ian Murray, you and I could probably have had some sort of impact, how low had the morale become. Just to emphasise how important the assistant manager is at DFC, I understand he supervises the training sessions in Ian Murray's absence. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
