Thenorthernlight Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 Think we can forget about Liam Scales coming to Pittodrie. Move on to another left sided central defender. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't read too much into half a friendly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irrespective of how he played, surely getting a half suggests that coming to us isn't a foregone conclusion? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anthony Stewart got 27 minutes on Saturday for us but hopefully he's still a foreGONE conclusion and heading elsewhere by the time the window closes. If Robson was hoping that he might attract suitors by playing him on Saturday then I think it probably had the opposite effect. With regards Scales, maybe Brenda is just having a look at his hand before he twists, but Scales transfer was never a certainty and was going to be dependent on the price Celtic put on him...

Fair point, although i doubt we'll be jeopardising a transfer fee by risking an injury to the hapless chap. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d31 Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 Celtic have a big squad of 31 senior players including 6 CBs and will have to move out half a dozen players this month. They might find that Scales is an easier one to move out temporarily. Good luck to him if he does get a look in 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't imply it did. He has had a full 90 mins for them prior to last night and was equally solid. I was suggesting him having a good 45 and some Celtic fans suddenly thinking he is cafu wouldn't be the deciding factor on him returning to us. Pay them a price that suits us both or look elsewhere would be my prefered outcome of this saga. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HarleyQuinn Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 (edited) Has 1 cap for New Zealand which he achieved in 2019. Has Irish citizenship. A left back. Hopefully he offers more than Hayes and Mackenzie. I haven't been terribly impressed by the A-League imports (Devlin, Rowles, Atkinson, Jeggo, Miller and Birighitti) in recent years however not going to judge until I've seen him play a decent number of games first.

Those Aussies you mentioned…..I wouldn’t take one of them at Pittodrie. Devlin & Rowles are the best of a bad bunch, and they’re both bang average. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's struggled to hold a regular spot anywhere he's played. At least Rowles, Devlin, Miller etc were all standouts in the A-League and like you've said, they are bang average. I don't know what to make of this signing if I'm being honest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what to make of this signing if I'm being honest. I do. At the risk of sounding negative, I’m very underwhelmed to be honest. Seems a strange one to me. I was hoping we’d sign a clear no1 LWB to replace Jonny. I’m not sure we have. Not writing the lad off, I’ll give him a chance, but not getting great vibes 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
