Game was over at half time though Is that FT? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The team was; Long, Laird, Lamont, Mathieson, Wilkinson, Watson, Denholm, Allan, Duggan, Smith, Elliott Subs | A Davidson, Dewar, Horsburgh, Healy, Sloan So it was mainly the U20’s side with the guys who haven’t played a League game yet, (Long, Janny and King Kev) along with our main two subs Duggan and Denholm!!! Don’t know why Duggan was risked in a needless game like this with his injury record and with Kev also going off at halftime it looks like Tonks and Wallace will be playing the full ninety for the foreseeable future!!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I was Darren Young, I’d be contacting Gary Naysmith at Hearts and see if he can do us a favour by giving us Aiden Keena on loan till January. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Potentially get ourselves in front of Forfar getting him. Or we rely on one of the u-20s 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mon_The_Fife Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 If Duggan and Smith are both out long term it certainly leaves us a little light upfront. Could probably do with another option as only having 2 recognised fit strikers isn’t really great unless of course there is anyone from the youth team capable of stepping up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirscottyoung Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Few of the young guys would defo be good enough to step up and help when needed.Hopefully there is money available in the budget to bring Keena in because if we got him to bang in the goals we could potentially push ourselves right up the tableIf Duggan and Smith are both out long term it certainly leaves us a little light upfront.

EFFC1938 Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Disappointing to hear that Duggan has potentially picked up a nasty injury in a cup there is very little interest in! I hope it isn't too bad and there's money available to strengthen if need be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Fifer Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Not going to blame DY for playing Duggan in this game, as the weeks are going on it's become apparent we were gonna run with Tonks and Wallace as our front two, Duggan has to get game time somewhere to keep his fitness up. Still, an absolute shitter that he's injured. Unless we sign someone else on loan it might force us into a change of shape with one striker being dropped and us playing more of a 4-4-1-1 with Agnew as the 1. As has been said Keena would be excellent but I reckon he'll want to challenge himself at the championship again if anything. Worth a stab mind! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirscottyoung Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 If Keena was unavailable who would people potentially like the club to bring in... I wouldn't mind Armstrong Oko Flex from celtic. Purely cause I did on FM and then signed him and sold him for 18m down south after a prolific season in the Premiership after getting 42 goals in the championship with an ageing Trouten (57 Goals) and Dowds0(33 Goals) [emoji23] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought the way with the Development Loan Signings that it was a season at one level and a season at the next level up, that was the reason we couldn’t get Jason Kerr for a Third season as he had to play in the Championship/next level up for that season!!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's looking likely that is where he is going, pretty sure there was an article in the courier or one of the angus papers that had said they were finalising or in talks 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henderson was the name? I doubt any we've named will be ahead of Washington, naismith and the big guy who Dunlop and higgy had in his pocket or ask churchy about Jack aitchison's availability? Did have a bizzare loan spell at Dumbarton one season ago. Steven boyd now released by Hamilton I'm sure he had a loan spell at albion when DY was about at Cliftonhill? 2016 scoring 5 in 15 on loan there would be a coup from a free agent signing in sure plenty others will look at his cv for a striker without a club.

Big Fifer Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Have we had any word on Duggan officially? What was the injury? Neither of the twitter accounts reported him being subbed, where's this rumour come from apart from one post a few pages back? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve always said that the club needs to improve on this side of social media. There is no point in the club being quiet about an injury if a players posts a picture on their own social media which they have every right to do, fans just get left in the dark. And yeah we do need another striker brought, hopefully it’s something we are addressing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree partially, but I think it was addressed last year, the club doesn't want to release anything saying Chris will be out for x amount of matches, or x months etc as it lets opponents know when he'll be back. A wee update on the fact there was an injury might be OK mind. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirscottyoung Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Need to remember that the social media is done by external folk too who might not be in regular contact with said injured player each time... So they may be in the dark as the rest I agree partially, but I think it was addressed last year, the club doesn't want to release anything saying Chris will be out for x amount of matches, or x months etc as it lets opponents know when he'll be back.
