Louis Litt Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 (edited) Absolutely no chance of Jason Cummings, any club bar Celtic would take him on loan here. Vaughan looks a decent prospect but he wouldn't be ready for the step up and won't solve our urgent need for a goalscorer. Austin would be my preference out of the two of them, he seems to have had a shit season at Falkirk but that'll apply to all their players. I still think the majority we'll get will be players out of favour from league 1/2 in England.

I still think the majority we'll get will be players out of favour from league 1/2 in England. Realistically I would be happy with any of them. My preference would be Austin aswell but I think Vaughan would be a good bit of business as he is more than likely better than elbak 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juantwothree Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Another one that could be interesting is David Faupala, we tried to sign him on loan from man city in the summer and he's now a free agent.,could be worth a punt on him and Austin, both free agents 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dafcburty Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 8 hours ago, Ludo*1 said: As well as the aforementioned Sanmi Odelusi there is, Adil Nabli (Currently at Peterborough - We tried to bring in a striker on loan from them before the window closed that fell through), Jerome Binnom-Williams (A left back?), Nathan Ralph (Another LB), Ben Richards-Everton (Ex-Partick defender), Shamir Mullins (6ft 5 striker for Forest Green), JJ Hooper (Striker at Grimsby), Hogan Ephraim (Former 'wonderkid' now at Whitehawk, striker), Ruben Lameiras (Midfielder at Plymouth), Gozie Ugwu (Striker at Chesterfield). There's probably more, but that's what I could find online. Gozie Ugwu was at Dunfermline under Jim Jefferies when Neil McCann was there as a coach so there is a connection there... I'm not sure how he is doing right now down in England but I'd be surprised if you guys were in for him as when JJ got sacked from Dunfermline, McCann and more so John Potter took over. They let Ugwu go without extending his contract despite him having scored 7 times in 14 matches (albeit in League One - it was also the year we finished 7th so our team wasn't thriving either). He's quite tall and if I remember correctly reasonably fast. He's sx-Reading and was "one to watch" when he was younger, coming through the youth ranks there. He's infamously remembered by the EEP faithful as we got a penalty in the 90th minute of a match versus Forfar and he took the kick despite being told no by the bench as he was not the designated taker. Despite disobeying the order of the coaching staff, he took it himself and missed... The game finished 0-0 and he never really kicked on with us after that until his release. I know it's just a name of a list but thought I'd give my tuppence worth on him as there is a connection but I don't see anything in that regard materialising. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy. Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 You may laugh but he is the same level as Scott Allan IMO. It's not even close, considering Cummings was playing for Forest on Tuesday I'd suggest he's not been completely frozen out like Allan was. Continue utterly deluding yourself about it, before you sign some League Two cast off on loan, if you want. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moo Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 This was brought up a few weeks ago but I wonder if we actually have improved our scouting network so we don't pick up foreign shite like we did with Hartley and now McCann. Just read an interesting article regarding how Hibs go about their transfer business. Obviously they have more resources than us hence they can afford this system but I wonder if we're aiming to get something in place like this. http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-transfer-news/hibs-transfer-strategy-uncovered-club-11758466.amp?__twitter_impression=true 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The exact same penalty situation happened under McCann's watch with us. Ajls took it when Moussa was the designated taker and missed and was subsequently dropped for about 2 month. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludo*1 Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 I'd honestly not thank you for O'Halloran. Genuinely don't think he's very good. Dangerous time to be saying this considering we play St Johnstone in a couple of days but even if he scores a hattrick - I still wouldn't rate him as top quality. He's overhyped garbage that can run very fast in a straight line. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dee Bliss Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 I’d have O’Hallaran in a minute tbh. Rips us a new ain most times he plays us, mind you it is against Holt who’s better going forward than defending. Him in place of El Bahktoui would be a perfect bit of business in January. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo*1 Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 When is Deacon back? Him in place of El Bak would do for me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Girth Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Someone at the wind up with Cumming coming to Dundee ? Just got a text from someone saying he is meant to be signing.Surely not ? Loan or perm? Either way, that would be a cracking signing if true. I can’t picture it mind... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
