Girth Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 Hopefully Gal can get some rid of some more deadwood now like Sheridan and Jakubiak. Get some new hungry talent in and we’ll be firing our way to 1st. Thank you. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derry Alli Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 I'd be keeping Jakubiak. #FeedTheJak. #KodakJak. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pens_Dark Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 A pitch inspection arranged for tomorrow afternoon prior to Dunfermline game. Will we ever actually play at Dens again? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossBFaeDundee Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 Not while the bad patch on the pitch still looks like this. Must be a nightmare trying to fix that in this weather. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be surprised if the Queens Park game even goes ahead. ETA - I feel for the ground staff. They do a brilliant job and have performed minor miracles over the past seasons.

Can't say I'm surprised or gutted about it as he looked rotten whenever I had seen him. I said at the time his stats for a striker / forward player were truly appalling. 24 years old and 1 (one) goal at first team level does not inspire confidence. Fair play to Bowyer for getting him out the door quickly. I assume we’ve had to pay off a portion of his contract but as it was only until the end of the season I guess it was a gamble worth taking signing him. Now, onto Grayson please!

He has had 1 or 2 decent games this season but for the others, you wouldn't know he was on the pitch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just can’t see why he brought in Grayson when he already had Byrne waiting and ready for first team action.

I'm with Ludo in some sense though, he wasn't DREADFUL, average/decent at passing the ball about but not very physical. When we had our dreadful run he wasn't the worst player but I think he got a hard time because he was meant to be a signing that addressed the problems etc.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheridan and Jakubiak stats are awful but still were getting on ahead of him. TBF, he got 3 in 8 and hardly started a game. Probably personal reasons or got a better offer somewhere. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was so good on his debut against Arbroath I’m just disappointed he has only shown glimpses since. I get Ludo’s point but I’d put Jakubiak and Sheridan in the same bracket, we’ve seen flashes of ability, but not often and not sustained. IMO they can all go to Peterheid 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twenty times as many as Osei had scored when he arrived at Dens. That’s an unbelievable difference. I’m expecting at least a goal from most defenders by the time they reach 24. To be fair I didn’t realise Osei had scored 3 for us. I thought it was only 1. In any case I’m entirely confident Osei hasn’t got a better offer elsewhere. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think it's a fair comparison anyway because I'm comparing them to what they can offer now, not at 24 years old. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigmouth Strikes Again Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 Would rather Osei got the chance rather than Gillian, just can't be bothered with top knot. Thank you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
