Vegetableman Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 16 hours ago, McCulloch No.5 said: He has given Andy a little respect due to his status at the club but not Neil Parry ? , Maybe Andy has not been told he is 3rd choice and that is all there is to it , Andy might accept that better too (maybe ) time to cut the manager some slack now i would think although the rumours of unrest are worrying interesting to watch him react to some shouts on saturday by mouthing something to himself , i wonder what he said ? I get the impression he prefers players to fight for a place in the team rather than moan about it , but given there is little scope to fight for a place as there isn't much chance to ! it makes no sense so i might be wrong . As for former players who impressed does anyone here remember Drew Paterson and David Lloyd ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drew was often unplayable. You could almost guarantee the left back he was up against each week would get booked. Brilliant player. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure at the time (before a certain hatchet man broke his leg ending his career ) the rangers manager jock wallace was keen on signing him Sad ending to a promising footballing career . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranaldo Bairn Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 My big Alloa fanatic pal Gregor used to go all dewy eyed at the mention of Drew Paterson and Lenny McComb. To be fair, it was him who would mention them (constantly). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drew Paterson is the best player I’ve had the pleasure of watching in an Alloa shirt. He could glide past defenders for fun . I heard that after he gave Danny Mcgrain a torrid time in a cup game at the Recs Celtic noted their interest in him however the Alloa board thought he would be worth even more once he showed what he could do in the return leg at Parkhead. Unfortunately that’s when he got his head fractured after colliding with a team mate. I’ve often wondered how far Drew would & should have went in the game & how much he’d be worth in the game today. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFTD Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 Just stuck my head in to the Falkirk thread again. I can't be arsed finding out why, but somehow there's an argument going over how it's good they didn't bring in Greig Spence this season. I try to stay off other teams' threads, but theirs is really quite moreish. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I try to stay off other teams' threads, but theirs is really quite moreish. It all started with Shadwell (who else) telling us (again) how bad Wilson and Ompreon are and giving us umpteen examples of strikers that have scored freely in L1, Spence being one. He's saying that we should have signed experience and that guys of that type could do us a turn. I then suggested, with tongue very firmly in cheek, that we should look at Spence and I reckon that some others have jumped in without reading the back story too carefully. Don't let on to Shadwell though because it's great fun and it might run for a wee while yet. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFTD Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 We can all only dream of having Spence & Buchanan. From about six years ago, but still. What a team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
