No idea if there is something to be read into it or not. He may have been injured, but it didn’t look like it. There was suggestion that he had fallen out with McInnes and that was why he was dropped. Was played when Taylor was injured and then straight back out of the team as soon as Taylor was fit enough to return. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given Joey has always made it clear he is of an age that he has one foot in the grave I will revise my post to 'Alright Chick Young'. “One foot in the grave”? Is your kick Kingjoey day? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an interesting one with Devlin, I can see his career with us fizzling out though, which is a shame. Big Ash has impressed me though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrewDon Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Can I just shock you? I like Ash Taylor, despite what I just said earlier. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that he had a bad spell, but thought that he’s played well when coming in for Ash Taylor, and I expected him to start yesterday regardless of whether Taylor was fit or not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve always liked him, but don’t want to lose Devlin who won’t be happy if he wasn’t injured yesterday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My post should have stated the fallout was previous. Then he was brought back in to the team. Taylor has been far more convincing this season. Wasn't a surprise to me to see him back. Disappointed if Devlin has thrown a hissy fit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it not because the games clash with your replay against us? Assumed it was so he was available for that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a Scottish National Team tweet about him being out of the squad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just thought it was strange that he would be heading away from the stadium fairly near to kick off after not being in the players stripped for the game. I hope that I’m adding 2 and 2 and getting 5. Why didn’t you just pull up next to him, wind the window down and ask him? Unless you are saying he was driving his car and talking on his phone at the same time? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BucksburnDandy Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 On Devlin, no idea about yesterday but apparently he had a falling out with McInnes after his Scotland debut due to coming back with a "billy big baas" attitude. As we all know, DM has no time of day for that type of attitude and that led to a falling out and Devlin not really being seen for weeks after his f**k up at McDiarmid Park. Let's hope there's not been another falling out 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrewDon Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Apparently turned up to Pittodrie on the Monday after the San Marino game wearing his two caps, one of which he threw disparagingly at Considine on his way into the dressing room, and then refused to change out of his match-worn Scotland gear for training. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
