Bizarre if so... I think the person who’s told you that has just picked the wording up wrongly with it being said that he’s combining playing with coaching the development squad. So no change in his coaching duties but he’s now registered as a player as cover for the first team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coventry Saint Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 4 hours ago, Dunning1874 said: Hopkin explicitly mentioned Lee Miller at Livingston when talking about it, so that’s obviously exactly how he’s planning to use him. Sutton hasn’t started a competitive game since we beat St Mirren 4-1 in August 2017, but he’s seemingly maintained his fitness rather than turning into Paul Hartley or Richard Brittain after retirement and it gives us a cheap extra body in a season where we’re clearly struggling to put a squad together. Hopefully we’ll see some movement on centre backs soon. I still suspect he could do an occasional job from the bench for you, especially in a Hopkin-managed team. Sutton has always known where the goal is and, though he didn't play much for us in 17-18, he simply wasn't a Jack Ross type player (5'7" and fast). I can't hate John Sutton, even if he's playing for you guys. It's also an endorsement of the impact he must have at your training ground if Hopkin is happy for this to go ahead. Interesting that he tried to sign him when at Livi, too - he was strongly linked with a move away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M0rtonfc Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 (edited) I'm quite happy with this, he's 35 and probably still at full fitness, it's not that old really, especially for our division, he could easily still do a job. I can't see him starting many games but it's a good option from the bench or to start the odd game we might deploy tactics that will suit his height and strength. He must still look fairly sharp in training for Hoppy to talk him into it, it's also a risk free gamble, it's not as if we are spending an extra wage on him, he's already on the books! I have a sneaky feeling this will be a shrewd bit of work from our ginger one. Edited June 28, 2019 by M0rtonfc 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not particularly impressed with the optics of this decision but I trust Hopkin. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very decent signing if he's over his ankle injury . That hampered him last season. But I've a feeling if he gets a good pre-season he could be back to his best 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wee touch of class about him, but injuries look to have caught up with him at a pretty young age. Would fear for him a bit playing on an artificial surface every other week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ghost of B A R P Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 p.s. to say I don’t agree with Colkitto... you might get lucky, of course, but we let Kilday go for a reason... and we currently have zero centre-halves... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
