I still think there is a really talented footballer there, but lacks some real effort, stamina or physicality. Without fail, every game he is barged off the ball easily and hits the ground complaining like he has been wiped out. There’s been times I’ve watched him and thought he’s away to hit a vein of serious form before he shies away again.

tree house tam Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 McPherson isn't Premiership class, it's not his fault Saints or more importantly Callum Davidson thought he was. It's more galling that we are still playing him when we have a former international player who's miles better than him frozen out. Carey has had a few shockers this season but I'm hoping the competition from DJ will straighten that out, if it doesn't then time on the bench will. Liam Gordon played okay at the weekend, miles better than the shite he has been serving up lately, long may that continue. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's those fleeting flashes that give me the (likely false) hope that there is a talented footballer hidden in there somewhere. However, I'll be the first to admit he is generally sh!t and one flash per game does not make in any way a good enough footballer for this level or 2/3 below quite frankly. I do though still think that if he sorted out his attitude and fitness and stopped thinking he was something he is not, he would be a decent player for someone down the leagues. For older fans, he is a modern day Gary Farquhar. Everyone in the game says how talented the player is, but does nothing with it and bar tiny indicators, no one actually sees it only far a career to drift away into obscurity. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye. He'll be a 28yo Championship player being touted for top flight moves because managers remember him looking promising when he was 21. I think hes chucked it this season already as he knows hes not going to be first choice. Be a full season of him just going through the motions before leaving at the end of his contract. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally agree and the chucking it is a perfect example of the attitude problem. I think a few of the injuries too are him being so self inflated that he won't play through any kind of pain or discomfort that others would, basically being a lightweight sh!tebag not up for the fight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Costanza Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 Sacrilege comparing Cameron MacPherson to Gary Farquhar. You need to have talent to begin with to waste it. Farquhar definitely had that, scored a few brilliant goals at a time when we had some fantastic players in midfield. Was also a bit of a “character”. It’s not MacPherson’s fault we signed him but he’s everything that’s been wrong with us the last few seasons, can’t wait until he leaves. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tree house tam Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 Gary Farquhar? The absolute pisshead Gary Farquhar? It tells you all you need to know that McPherson is being compared to(and losing)to a guy who played about 40 games and scored a couple of goals in his entirely uneventful time at Mcdiarmid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radford Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 I wouldn't concern yourselves too much with Cammy MacPherson. He must be about due another injury. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScarf Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 I saw Gary Farquhar in Asda the other day. Think he's involved with one of the North Caley sides in Inverness. I know he's lived here for years since leaving Wick Academy in the Highland League. I thought he was decent for The Caley; he played a few times for us when we got promoted to what is now the Championship in 1999. On a more related note, is Wotherspoon injured a lot? That's a prerequisite for signing for The Caley. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he's at that age now but he's never had any pace to lose. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He got a contract because Callum Davidson didn't have a clue when it came to judging a player. Nothing more, nothing less. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
