MP_MFC Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 That Master video is great, a few faces make multiple appearances. Saw all my mates but didn't even clock myself once. What a great few days out the masters were. My only regret is missing the bus for the trip to the finals in Manchester cos I got pished the night afore. That bus was bedlam. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On first thought was he not a midfielder who operated in a Polworth-y sort of area or am I projecting a bit because that's kind of what I think we need? @Ludo*1.

dezz Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 (edited) There's Robbie Crawford signed on permanently until the Summer. Didn't see that one coming to be honest - I thought he might have been on his way back to Livi. Maybe suggests we're not expecting Donnelly back too soon, or O'Hara's concussion is more serious like McHugh's.

I'm less surprised, in fact I was half-expecting it, given that Alexander seems to have been fine with playing him and, as you say Donnelly's injury and O'Hara having been McHugh'd means an extra body in midfield isn't the worst idea. If he'd been heading back to Livi I'd have expected us to have announced it after the County game last week. As @Busta Nut says though he's tidy without necessarily being game changing.

Aye you're probably right, he would have been away by now if that was the plan. Similar to most others opinion, he's not a game changer but I'm happy enough to have him in the squad as another option. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busta Nut Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 (edited) we are desperate for a right sided midfielder. We have guys who can play on the right of the "front 3" but we have no one to play right mid and do the defensive side of the wide player work. That suggests we're sticking with the 433 no matter what or we will play narrow when we have more than 3 in midfield. I don't like that we don't have a right sided midfielder (this is all assuming Lawless can play LM) Not to mention we need a centre half. Mugabi is never the answer.

Were it not for Big Bevis we probably would not have taken a MUCH needed 3 points last midweek. In saying that he has shown consistently that he is never that far away from a brain fart. I am confident he will score v United on Wed night. Just got a feeling after that header. Might be worth a few £s on anytime goalscorer. I am a bit meh re Crawford. He has not done much wrong to be fair. But it does suggest OHara May be out for longer and Donnelly comeback may be delayed. I would imagine we would see some players leaving if Alexander wants a smaller squad. Then again if no one wants them... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
well fan for life Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Crawford is fine? If you were to press me for my full, honest, in depth opinion of Crawford's abilities as a footballer and what he brings to the club it would be exactly as follows. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MP_MFC Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 As long as he doesn't try any more dinked cross field passes right over where opposing players are standing he'll do a job. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having broken the world record that I didn’t know existed for the highest headed goal, surely Bevis should be going for the lowest, a chin in the turf diving header. Nothing mundane. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Aldo Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 I'm happy enough with Crawford sticking around. If you look up "unspectacular" in the dictionary there's a picture of him but he's done a job and Alexander obviously sees enough there to keep him.Hopefully 1 or 2 others join before the end of the day - ideally another centre back and a more creative midfielder. A few weeks ago I'd have added a striker to that list but Watt has been playing well and Cole has shown an eye for goal recently so I'm a bit less concerned than I was. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My only source being someone on Twitter said we’re looking at him so not very reliable. Aye, it was mentioned a couple of posts up the page (via a different source). It seems a nonsense as they're saying Rangers are also interested. I know little of him other than Dundee loaned him from Sunderland and he's now at Blackpool but I think he falls into the "Polworth alternative" category. In former players chat...do we have a sell on for big Herbalife? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archie McSquackle Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 A bit surprised by the Crawford announcement but I suppose it makes sense in a way. Alexander has been playing him so if he leaves he weakens the team (in his eyes). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welldaft Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 I am wondering at what point Celtic fail in their attempts to get a central defender on loan or permanently and make an offer of £311.72p for our Captain and Scotland International Dec Gallacher. I will go for 10.55pm this evening. Any better guesses than that ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
