lichtiekev Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 This must be one of the best calender years I the clubs history, From last January to now has been unbelievable,Nouble is obviously a massive loss but I think we really missed Mckenna yesterday, with Nicky Low coming back and hopefully Jack Hamilton continuing where he finished we and maybe another there is no reason why we can keep this up, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RRFC2711 Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 As a matter of interest and being a Rovers supporter the “rivalry” and battles we have had with the lichties over recent seasons, means that we always treat this fixture and the team with the respect it deserves. Where I think others do not. Comes as no surprise to me that you are top and others in the division have had their arse soundly bitten. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teams have sat in against us quite a lot this year. Especially at Gayfield. From January to end of season last year we had top 4 form and just carried it into this season too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1320Lichtie Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 So Nouble out Dowds potentially out I would let Hilson move on possibly heard Mo were wanting him and I like him but he’s never gonna get a game in his best position and I don’t think he offers much out wide it’s not his position at all Paterson???? Jack Hamilton in and I feel like we might see 2 rabbits out the hat that could be potentially excellent knowing DC and the fact that so many players would love to come to us at the moment. Real publicity And buzz about what we’re doing just now. We only need attacking players we are sorted defence and midfield 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lichtie78 Posted December 20, 2021 Author Share Posted December 20, 2021 Vaguely recall Pink saying Paterson wouldn’t be back this season at the Q&A, hopefully get him out on loan to a League 2 club at the very least. Dowds is a funny one, you’d think Falkirk would want him back but appears to be a bit of beef between him & Gary Holt which might change things. Would probably involve paying a fee though if we were to keep him. Swankie’s deal is up in January IIRC, but if he wants to stay I imagine he will get that extended. At least in Jack Hamilton we are getting a known quantity, then hopefully we can supplement him with a few more quality signings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoseMarooniho Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 Would be tempted to let Swankie go as wellDCs loyalty to his players is a big reason for his success. I guess unless Swanks wants out he’ll be kept on, and quite right too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Gav wants to play football he needs to move on. DC and he will surely have had that conversation. All of our Angus neighbours would welcome his contribution. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t imagine Swankie will be realistically thinking much further than this season as a footballer. He’s 38 so don’t think any senior team would be interested. How many outfield players are still playing at that age? Seems like an intelligent enough guy and obviously has a wealth of experience to pass on so I wonder if his future lies in coaching? If so then perhaps he’ll end up on our coaching staff. If any player at the end of their career deserves sentimental loyalty from a club it’s him.

Nah, no from me, going to need players who contribute on the field and we need to think beyond this season 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We ended up relegating them through the playoffs and he was playing for them at the time As long as we stay up we'll let him come lol 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATLIS Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Looks like Nouble will be recalled January 1st - I know there was a bit of conversation on here about getting a few extra games out of him.
