RAITHROVERS84 Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 Broadfoot - How do you go from Broomhill, 5th tier to Championship at the age of 38 (39 by the season start). Kinda blown my mind if he’s anywhere near your starting 11 as he’s well past it and thought he’d retired. Good in his day so assuming it’s absolute emergency cover and maybe coaching / training for the future ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be concerned if we went into the new season with him as our starting right back/ centre back. Will have to go with Dougies judgement on it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MORleyTON Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 (edited) Miller no longer joining, wonder what it was they couldn't agree on https://twitter.com/calvin_miller7/status/1669314978547916800?t=iNyN30bTf2aeXgN_SF8KSg&s=19 Edited June 15, 2023 by MORleyTON Typo 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunning1874 Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 Miller was very good in the run-in, and you could argue that was just him having needed time to settle and get a run of games, but we're still talking about a player who only managed 4 or 5 good performances in half a season. That could just as easily have been a purple patch, or more cynically a case of turning it on when he needed to earn a contract, with his earlier performances being the norm. Being able to play left back was very useful versatility but it was debatable if he was even part of our strongest XI, while I'd have happily kept him he's far from irreplaceable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From about halftime in the Hamilton game he was a different player and had an excellent run-in, but that wouldn't have been his only purple patch as a player when he would go onto later disappoint. I honestly have no idea where his career will go from here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ghost of B A R P Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 Looks like a straightforward case of a player thinking they can get more/better than what is being offered... time will tell if he's right or wrong. We move on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be more of a shock if we were competing with Falkirk on wages. For all we're in a considerably better financial place than last summer, we'll more than likely still have a lower budget than everyone in this division other than Airdrie. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad Spencer had the option of another year with us, probably on very favourable terms, yet went there as well. They've specialised in setting money on fire the last four seasons trying to escape the hell hole that is League One, so why would this be any different?

I'm sure we will have gave him a decent offer but Falkirk will be throwing their 5th kitchen sink at this to get back up. Love to know how much money they have wasted since Hartley. Be glorious if it fails once again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just seen 2 years. I've never really rated him, billy big baws attitude from start to finish at Ayr, lower half Championship and below will be his level. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GiGi Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 Had a good run in, man down for the most part though. Another Craig McGuffie but without the worldies. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The majority of Morton fans were seething every time he started ahead of McGrattan. Poor first half of his stint, came onto a game during the run in. In no way did he do enough to get a 2 year deal so we were never matching that. On paper, should be a good signing for Falkirk unfortunately. Just as likely he will follow in the 'illustrious' footateps of McGuffie and Nesbitt and suffer the same fate though.

Stellaboz Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 What's the expectations in Greenock for the coming season? Didn't watch any Championship football last season (cheers Yogi). Pushing for play offs? Must be about 7 or 8 teams with those aspirations. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
