Fuctifano Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 (edited) Surprised he's only 30, had him at 34/35 in my head, but pretty much what we needed in terms of full back cover or even RCB in a 3 if we ever decide to play that, can't see any more incomings unless we get a spate of injuries between now and end of August.

Decent signing and even better to get back to talking about the football on the park -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigkillie Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 I'm not sure he's good enough to be a first choice for a team trying to win the league. Fine as cover and can play multiple positions, though I'd argue not really any of them that well. We signed him as cover for both full-back positions last year but Naismith ended up being rubbish so he played a lot of the season at RB/RWB/RCB and was a perfectly serviceable 6/10 most weeks. Definitely no chance I'd want him near our team in the top flight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, I'm not sure how your first sentence and second sentence are consistent really. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 He stumbled into being first choice because we had nobody else, and we barely won the league despite the only genuine competition being a part-time team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good job he’s been signed as cover then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No matter how you spin it, he's just not very good but you'll get to see that for yourself. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pie Of The Month Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 I'm not sure anyone is spinning anything, we needed a back up full back to cover injuries and we've signed one. That's it. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaggyness Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 Thoughts on Stephen Hendrie?Improved to an acceptable level after being pretty shaky to begin his spell with us. I remember one game where he made a terrific goal saving tackle he had no right to make. He'll be a solid signing for league one I'd imagine 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely no chance I'd want him near our team in the top flight. Pretty sure he’s been signed as all-round defensive cover for us as well. McMillan and Milne have the FB positions locked up, and we have 4 CBs on the books already. Hodson will probably slot immediately into the team in the short term because of the CBs in the squad Muirhead and Akinola are both out and Brownlie looks a long way from match fitness, so we’re really short at CB right now. Whether that ends up being Hodson’s role or if he plays RB with McMillan moving inside I suppose we’ll find out tomorrow. Unless some of these injuries end up being long term, though, Hodson won’t be expected to start every week. McMillan has started well and I don’t see this being another Naismith situation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn’t look fit when he first signed, ended up one of our better players at the tail end of the season. If McCall didn’t have Milne signed up I have no doubts we would have kept him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
