Tubbs is a pretty appropriate "back of the shirt" name for several fans at Pittodrie. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vancouver_Don Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 Thought Ojo played really well yesterday (My MOTM) I've been impressed with him when he has played (Hearts game aside). Both Ojo and McGeough looked like a great partnership in the middle. Really lacking creativity at the moment. The club are clearly trying to address this by signing Kennedy in this window. We could do with some competition for Cosgrove. Main and Anderson just haven't done enough. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe giving us a look at players they don't think are going to progress through their ranks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BENEFITS OF STUDENT EXCHANGE BENEFITS OF STUDENT EXCHANGE Student exchange offers broad based benefits and outcomes for students keen to embark on this international adventure. Most of these are intertwined and come together to constitute the overarching exchange experience. EDUCATIONAL International learning and knowledge propels students towards acceptance and understanding of an array of different cultural and community perspectives. Language acquisition is achieved through practical immersion. Awareness and adoption of alternative, multi-faceted approaches to learning. Analytical and problem solving skills. Enhanced interest in global issues as well as a broader general knowledge. PERSONAL Self-development and awareness leading to enhanced self-confidence and self-esteem. This is often the most noticeable change in returned exchange students. Maturity and social poise, fuelled by the necessity to confront challenges outside a familiar support network and comfort zone. Integration into another family as well as the development of life-long friendships, fostering an appreciation of home and family. A tremendous sense of accomplishment upon completion encourages students to develop independent opinions, make informed decisions and strive to attain fresh goals. LONG-TERM Students who go on to tertiary studies find themselves more comfortable in ‘foreign’ environments. Prospective employers in almost every field look favourably upon experience gained while living overseas and knowledge obtained of another language and culture. Increased pressure to communicate and relate to others develops an awareness of group dynamics and personal sensitivity towards others. Successful program completion represents an excellent measure of personal flexibility, encompassing an ability to reach compromise, focus and succeed through challenging times.

Guest Bob Mahelp Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 My initial worry is that we'll become a dumping ground for Atlanta's reserves, but this only seems like they're sending some kids to get experience. Bring them along for a Tuesday night game in February against Hamilton. That'll soon chase them back to baseball. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was on their thread a while ago and they said he'd been sent back up the road. Neither club seems to have announced anything yet though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodhull Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 I see Cammie Smith is on trial at Dundalk. Surely he could find another club in the championship no bother? Then again maybe Dundalk can offer decent wages compared to some of the smaller championship sides. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smith always put in 100% but just doesn't have "it". Before even Robbie Neilson doesn't rate him, a man who celebrated taking St Mirren to extra time and pens, Smith must've declined a fair bit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HunterAFC Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 Cammy Smith is very similar to James Wilson in that he looks like he has something about him but can't translate it into regularly influencing a game 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably since Maguire? I'd say Ryan Fraser was the most exciting player we've had since Maguire. I personally never rated Cammy Smith. I think Scott Wright and McLennan are much more exciting but even they suffer from this inability to "translate" their talents onto the pitch regularly. I see we are apparently after Keshi Anderson according to an ITK poster on Aberdeen Mad. He has 17 appearances for Swindon in league 2 this season, scoring 6 goals (he scored a hatrick on Dec 26th) and 4 assists. Must admit, I'm underwhelmed by this one if true. Also same guy suggesting we are looking at Ross Stewart or Boyce as a replacement for Cosgrove (if he's sold this window). I'd be happy with Boyce but not so sure about Ross Stewart. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, Ryan Fraser was after Maguire. Forgot about him. Cammy Smith was fantastic at youth level and we had to fight off some decent teams to keep him here. I think Stewart is injured? Seems to be highly rated by a few folk in the media but he's about 6ft 5". Signing a player of that size is only going to lead to one thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
