FTOF Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 I thought that Grieve showed up well today. Maybe it's because he's been through a different development route, but he actually looks like he knows what a forward should be doing. A promising performance. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given he’s come off the bench twice, safe to assume Erwin and Main are in the bomb squad? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McG Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Kiltie boy is up and running predicting another goal for him against Aberdeen on Tuesday as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mainstand Sweary Mob Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 He certainly looks that, after Dennis, he's the back up to Brophy. Who would take Main and Erwin? Would be cash needed for Main as he is contracted to 2023? Erwin annoys me as did Jim not sign him, but never gets on the park? When he does, he has been shite... but how do we sell him to other teams if no one sees what he could do for them? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd hoped Killie might take Erwin back but they are clearly aiming - and spending - much higher. We are really going to struggle to find suitors for these players. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He always looked good at Killie but he had stalled with us. Now really looking back to the player we thought he was. Give the lad a decent run in the team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's rumoured that Main is in talks with Doncaster (rovers, not Neil). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lex Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Good, solid stuff from us again today. On Tuesday we were a bit under the cosh and we had two tricky looking away games on the immediate horizon. Fast forward five days and we’ve deservedly won them both, things certainly look a bit brighter.Main and McGrath out, Greive and Kiltie in, it seems. A fine exchange and perhaps an upgrade in both senses. If you play Greg in a number 10 role behind the striker he’s going to regularly set up and/or score goals. If you stick him out wide, he’s going to struggle, because he’s not a winger. Two games through the middle, two assists, one goal and another which was unfortunately disallowed. What a meaningful contribution, the kind we’ve been crying out for from our attacking players all season. Get McGrath out the club ASAP and keep Kiltie in that role for the three season definers we have coming up. Aberdeen (h)Dundee (a)Motherwell (h)Six or more points and we are rocking with the top six a realistic target. Three or less and we are back in trouble, looking over our shoulder. Four or five and we are kinda the same as we are now, could go either way. We go into them in form and full of confidence. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djchapsticks Posted January 23, 2022 Author Share Posted January 23, 2022 In addition to Kiltie performing like a new signing in a role that is suited to him, Alex Grieve also looked excellent in his 25 minute showing yesterday. Definitely the sort of guy who will give opposition defenders a sore head and a far better option than either Main or Erwin. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coventry Saint Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 Re Kiltie... Sometimes, to job your job brilliantly, you just need nobody else to be trying to do your job as well. I hope he really kicks on now he and McGrath aren't treading on each other's toes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really liked the look of the boy Greive, he looks like the dynamic type of Striker Jim described. I liked the way he has one thought in mind when driving toward goal. Definitely going to provide us with something different. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mainstand Sweary Mob Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 Not got to see him yet, but does Grieve give us the pace we have needed? How does he differ from the existing strikers out of curiosity. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sergie's no1 fan Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 Amazing what a couple of wins and decent performances can do. Sounds like we are all pulling in the same direction again. Jim changing things up, only need to look at what happened to Davidson yesterday and the abuse they'll got after the game. Could easily have been Jim. As I said, can't get too carried away yet as Aberdeen are so unpredictable and we have been awful against Dundee this season so far. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminds me of Ross Stewart - raw and a bit gangly but appears to have a football brain unlike Main. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to be pretty direct. Also, held his own against the Ayr CH's and laid the ball off. He had one run from just inside the opposition half, where he set off and challenged the defenders to catch him. He was fouled just outside the box. Just a pity he didn't get the chance to get a shot off. As I mentioned earlier, it's a promising start. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djchapsticks Posted January 23, 2022 Author Share Posted January 23, 2022 Yeah nothing to get too carried away over, can only go with what we've seen so far and it's promising enough. I terms of what he brings that's different he seems to be faster and more direct than several other options we have. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glenburn bud Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 So is it true that we’ve recalled Cammy McPherson from the fakes, apparently he’s signed a PCA with them. We are looking for a fee and a development fee if they want him now ? Anyone else heard anything. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
