So its not hard to imagine who would pay good money for him id say. Fair enough on some of the points. A portion of our support do truly hate Cosgrove though . Some who couldnt stand him proving them wrong on initial assessments of him. A similar offer would be a great bit of business for the club, especially with the financial shortfall. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don exotic Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 Not a bad evening. Livi game on ice, which may give us some time for players to recover and County beating Hibs. I’m sure we will have lots of new signings by the time the match is rearranged, based on all the rumours. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that’s not happening at Ayr, then adios. It’s definitely not happening at Ayr for Bruce. He’s being sent back to Aberdeen in January. Been a total flop at Ayr, I believe it’s attitude rather than ability. The last Dons player we sent back to Pittodrie with his tail between his legs was a certain Scott McKenna. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Kerr upset with an Aberdeen players attitude smells like karma to me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DukDukGoose Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Happy new year Dandies. And to any others looking in. Hopefully we'll all get to go to a game in the new year so I can also moan I'm fucking freezing along with the football being crap 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a different option but not sure if he's what we need. He's only 24. He's been involved in the Scotland squad. He's actually got a better scoring ratio then Anderson, Main and Edmundson - I admit a desperate attempt to make him sound more appealing. On his day he's a good player but I agree that although he may be marginally better then what we currently have he's not a massive improvement. Same applies to Ross Stewart. Looks like we may potentially see: Out: Main, Cosgrove, Anderson and Edmundson. In: Ross Stewart and Brophy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarleyQuinn Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 EXCLUSIVE: Championship duo battling Scottish quartet for free striker (teamtalk.com) Barnsley had already shown an interest in the 24-year-old – who has been capped by Scotland – and now they are ready to offer him a pre-contract in January. A number of Championship rivals are also believed to be looking including Luton, but he will also have the chance to remain in Scotland. We understand Aberdeen, Hibernian, Hearts and St Mirren are all looking to open talks with him over a free transfer move in the summer. Brophy recently reached 100 league appearances for Kilmarnock. In that time, he has scored 29 goals. So far this season, he has scored two goals from eight starts in the Scottish Premiership. Last season, he managed nine goals from 24 starts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussellAnderson Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 A full swap of all our strikers would be really good, if possible. The fact that we’ve got Main, Cosgrove and Edmundson who are all pretty much the same player, to varying degrees of shite/arsed, means in games like today we are incapable of shaking it up. Stewart means we retain a bit of physicality and Brophy is more of a nippy attacker who can get in behind. He’s a decent talent who I think could do well for us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderson won't be away as he can only play for ourselves or Ayr. From what I remember of Brophy he's a decent player but his decision making is terrible. Hits random shots from miles out that are never troubling anyone. We don't often get to play on the break either which makes it difficult for folk to get in behind. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I had your confidence. It's not a good look for McInnes this far into his tenure that Main is his first-choice striker, and it's not the best look for Cosgrove either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well if it comes down to money and it often does, then none of the four named Scottish clubs are winning that race. Can't understand why Hibs would be interested given what they already have unless of course they're about to cash in on Nisbet and take a decent profit 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarleyQuinn Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 According the ITK's and rumours we are offering contracts to Allan Campbell, Ross Stewart and Brophy. We are also supposedly trying to sign Chris Cadden or Stephen O'Donnell and GMS is also apparently in McInnes thoughts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
