RostokMcSpoons Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 His old club said this... Via Google translate... "Joe Efford closes the doors of the Freethiel behind him and goes to work for Scottish Motherwell. The American is leaving yellow-blue for good Efford ended up in Beveren in the summer of 2020 after a strong period with the Greek Ergotelis. In his first season for yellow-blue, he made 28 appearances. He vibrated the nets twice and provided five assists. This season, Efford has already been able to show seventeen times. He was able to celebrate a goal twice and sent the decisive pass four times. In total, Efford played 2252 minutes for yellow-blue We wish Joe every success in his further career" it's good to hear he can vibrate the net 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ropy Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 4 minutes ago, Allroy for Prez said: This time last season I’d have driven Lamie to Dundee myself but the transformation in him under Alexander has to be seen the be believed so I’m slightly disappointed by this news. Not quite on “Tony Watt to Utd” level, but still. Maybe Ojala and Sondre are our first choice picks, but 22 games into the season, how many games have they actually started together? Can’t have been many. Lamie might not have been a guaranteed starter but surely no one bar Kelly is and with the injury records of our perceived first picks, there would definitely be plenty opportunity to play if your own form and fitness held out. Fully expect him to go to Dundee this window now as I believe they’re a bit short at the back. Are you saying we might get money for Ricki Lamie? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gianfranco Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 I’d guess Lamie will go this month and that’s why we signed the French guy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rowsdower Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Money for lamie? What a world. I do not dislike him, but his improvement under GA will never be enough to un traumatize me from his initial badness. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt_oats Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Tbh, the news about Lamie means that the Jake Carroll: Centre Back project makes a lot more sense now (and also Alexander's comment that we'd maybe be looking for another defender despite Big Vic coming in). Assuming he fucks off (and we get some cash for him) that leaves McGinley, SOD, Fox and O'Hara left of Robinson's summer signings from last season. Quite a turnaround. Processing the idea that we might get some money for Ricki Lamie though... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could take the piss and demand a 20% sell on fee, the Dom Thomas clause. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desp Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 £500 and a box of empire biscuits and Lamie can head to Dundee the now. There's no question he's improved under Alexander, and fair fucks to him for that, but he'll no exactly be missed. Thanks and all the best, Ricki. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swello Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Is it just me or is the number of transfers between top flight clubs a bit higher than normal at the moment? Maybe we're all finally priced out of the English bubble. Lamie has really impressed me since the latter part of last season and I liked the fact he redeemed himself - but he was starting from a Zak Jules-level low bar to be fair. Looking forward to signing a Venezuelan playing in the Bhutan premier league as his replacement. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron Aldo Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 Ricki Lamie spent most of last season ruining my weekends (and some weeknights). He's improved no doubt but is still nothing more than decent for this level.Not sure who Dundee's current defenders are but if Lamie represents an upgrade they must be pish. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MP_MFC Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 Oh... His, what I assume is his brother Kyle is a linebacker for Georgia Tech so I imagine he comes from a very athletic family.

YassinMoutaouakil Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 I'm actually quite interested to see how Lamie gets on tbh. Basically everyone played at Centre Back under Alexander has looked passable at worst, while Robinson's record was much flakier. Lamie feels like a lower Premiership, Upper Championship defender to me, but if he's able to maintain his 2021 form then Dundee have won a watch. I'm not remotely arsed about losing him though tbh, personally just a player I've never taken to, and it's nice to draw a line under the Gallagher/Watt/Lamie trifecta. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazylegsjoe_mfc Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 He’s been a very good centre back when called upon for the best part of a year now for us and our record with him in the team this season is very good. However, you would have to question why he would want to sign a new deal as 4th choice centre half at the age of 28. I just hope that if he goes in January, we can get a run of games injury free from Sol and Ojala. They’re probably our first choice and they’ve only played together twice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm more of the RonAldo opinion here to be honest. He definitely improved under GA and the GA system. But, for me, it's a jump to say he was a very good centre back when called on last 12 months. He was an able replacement I reckon. Fully agree with crazylegsjoe on the final thought though. An injury free run of games at centre back would be ideal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
