That’s without Turnbull, Sloth, Dunne, Ilic, Semple and Manzinga. So even if/when things go tits up which they invariably will at some point, there’s plenty of scope there for Robinson to shake things up. A far cry from his first season in charge where Deimantas Petravicius was considered a genuine option off the bench. I miss Fraser Kerr coming on to play down the wing 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archie McSquackle Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Or going back a bit further ...... Andy Roddie. Good times. Roddie was at least supposed to be a winger. I don't think the management team could work out the best position to play Kerr until they eventually realised it was better not to play him at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, at least Kerr got fucking wired in to Moshni during the post-playoff entertainment - Andy Roddie wore gloves. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do we get a Darren O'Fee for him or is his contract just ripped up? The link with him moving was first mentioned a while back (August 13th). It sounds to me like he's handed in/worked his notice or he's stayed on in the position until we've recruited his replacement. Which is fair enough. He's been offered the same role with (presumably) better pay and facilities at another employer. We've already appointed his successor according to the PR that went out earlier so other than a bit of inconvenience I doubt there's any issue and it'd be wildly optimistic to expect a fee or some sort of compensation. Quote "His successor has been appointed and will be announced shortly." Given Craigan left in December, McManus in January and O'Dea after a couple of months it'll be interesting to see who's got the job.

Archie McSquackle Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 That could go wrong as well but at least Celtic would have to pay money to bring him in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dezz Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 I see there’s a bit of chat on BBC Gossip this morning that Steve Clarke has been down watching Chris Cadden as a potential solution to Scotland’s right back issue. Without having seen/heard anything about his performances at Oxford, I have a feeling he is not the solution. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyRoss Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Feel this has escalated somewhat from about two months ago when I believed he’d be better served going out on loan to Alloa... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt_oats Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Carson, Mugabi, Maguire, Sloth, Mazinga, Ilic and Semple all starting for the reserves. Looks like Dean Cornelius at right back as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swello Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 On paper that must be the strongest reserve side we've played 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazylegsjoe Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 It actually came up on my LinkedIn feed today that Elliott Frear had posted a highlights video up there, looking for a club either at home or abroad. Although I don't feel we've suffered at all for losing him, I think he'd have Ilic's seat on the bench at best, it's still sad to see a guy who was a decent servant for us struggling for a club. Trials at Dundee United and Oxford didn't work out by the looks of things. I wonder if there ever was any danger of us re-signing him when he turned up at that Gretna game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swello Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 I'm surprised that no-one has taken a punt on him as he isn't that bad a player IMO - but it does remind you that sometimes the "short career" cliche is true and it's nothing to do with age. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
