Handsome_Devil Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 2 minutes ago, wellboy1991 said: Stuparevic ….. Callachan….. Callachan is from the central belt and needs treatment for his injury anyway, it would seem a real stretch for him to want to do anything other than sit tight and recover. The guys from abroad are a different matter, you never know if they just hate it here or have a family issue somehow. Otherwise the cost of zapping someone on a two-year contract at this stage is just prohibitive compared to the chance they might come good when they settle into the neighbourhood, pace of the game etc. By January it becomes a slightly different matter. Other than youngsters on loan and Miller if made a ridiculous offer, I can't see us shipping any out this month. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbf you could argue he's closer to a 10 and a midfielder in terms of style than a true striker but still...hmm. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witchfindergeneral Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 no to Vale, put in 100% effort on the park but not a good enough striker 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnMFC Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 3 minutes ago, capt_oats said: I don't hate this. I thought he was pretty decent in that 'Not quite a striker but also not a midfielder' role last season. Also adds a bit of pace which is something we're lacking at the moment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'WellDel Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 We've been goal shy so far, but with all these options and possible permutations, we've surely got to fall on an absolutely f**king unstoppable combination eventually, right? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, I mean I'm all for having him back it's just a giggle that the bold Pete O'Rourke has us in for Kouassi last night and now we're back in for Vale (which like yourself I thought may be the case until we signed aw the forwards). f**k it...I say we just lean into it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eliphas Pettigrew Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 It seems to me to be more of finding the right set-up, right balance and the right players for the midfield positions - as early on it seems to be more of a problem linking everything together that makes us look toothless at times 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busta Nut Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 Is that Peter O'Rourke guy legit? Had that asked when I pointed that out. A pal seems to think he was called out on his shitposting 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YassinMoutaouakil Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 He seems a decent guy that bought into our great wee club and did a job when we needed him to in February/March when things still looked pretty perilous for a while. I thought he fell off a bit after that though. I'm honestly not sure either way whether he's got the same sort of raw attributes that Bair had and could be moulded into someone pretty handy at our level, or if, at 23, it's more likely you aren't "raw" anymore and might just not be up to it technically to be a Scottish Premiership player. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Literally. From memory he bought cup final memorabilia at the POTY awards for around £600.00. So on that alone, bring him back 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get the impression that he's one of those that agents feed stories to and he publishes them in a quid pro quo sort of situation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
