Fuctifano Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 A 5th centre back and another midfielder* suggests to me we're playing 3-5-2 next year. Or probably 4-4-2 with about 5 folk out of position. *I've read the article a couple of times but not sure if the loan midfielder and the "makes forward runs" midfielder are the same guy, I think they are. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reid Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 Would happily take Mayo back. Hoping that us being close to signing another midfielder means no Crawford next season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exiledjag Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 Could Csmmy Ballantyne (who has just left Montrose and is looking for FT football) be our future right back. Like Harry Milne at Left Back many consider Ballantyne the best right back in League One. A back line of Ballantyne, Mayo, Holt, and Milne would be excellent with Akinola and Muirhead as cover. Looks solid. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McCall obviously brown - nosing as well as blue-nosing last midweek. Kelly would fit the bill given his previous spell at Ayr under McCall but he was on loan in the Premiership 2 years ago so obviously hasn't kicked on, which might be a concern. Similarly Mayo really needs to play in the Premiership or down South, coming back for another year in the Championship with us or anyone else would be a poor step for him, though it would clearly be good for us.

Think I recall Ayr fans rating him highly at the time 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love for us to sign him on a permanent deal but suspect he’ll be looking further up the food than ourselves and Thistle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 Aye Kelly would probably be one of the best midfielders in the league if he signed for you lot. Can play as a 10 or an 8 easily. He scored the winner with a peach of a goal against you lot in one of Gary Caldewells last game. We beat you 3-2 at Firhill after Shea Gordon and Stuart Bannigan got sent off. One of the few goals Kris Doolan scored for us as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also looking at a midfielder who gets forward plus needing a right back and competition for Sneddon. https://www.glasgowtimes.co.uk/sport/20162939.ian-mccall-talks-rangers-lewis-mayo-deal-thistle-close-two-signings/ The midfielder is probably McInroy 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was either his debut or a very early game as McCall admitted post match that we very nearly signed him but Partick offered better terms at the last minute. He destroyed Andy Geggan in that game and every time he got the ball, even on the half way line I was shitting myself for what he was going to do. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I’m being kind to him then Mark Kerr didn’t show much patience with him and only ever really played him as a striker which I don’t think he’s suited to in the way we wanted him to play. He gets no sympathy from me purely for the way he basically announced he was fucking off in the summer to join Raith whilst we were up to our necks in a relegation fight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As said previously we shouldn't be signing players discarded by one of our main rivals. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
