Considering I just read a post from Div that suggests we might even get a fee for him, I am already at the "very, very surprised" level. I'm not sure about this timeline, but one where we get money for a permacrock that a previous manager went financially balls deep on is a timeline I'm liking! This might even counter balance and low bid we accept for Baccus! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djchapsticks Posted June 28, 2023 Author Share Posted June 28, 2023 We're likely going to lose our biggest earner today and if rumours are true, will make a wee bit of money as Brophy is not the only one Dingwall bound. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Point taken but: Ayunga might be unfit for a while. Also I am wondering (speculation) whether Greive might be the other player people are implying is going. I hope not because, for all he has some stuff to work on, I like his industry a lot and he pops up with very important goals on occasion, 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be surprised if County took up the option to buy (which was inserted) on Brophy rather than just go 'can you give us him for nothing' to be honest as we wouldn't be hard to deal with. We get to completely cancel last year of his deal and County get the player they want. If there is an actual fee changing hands it will be even better than rinsing St. Johnstone of money for Cammy MacPherson. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthBank Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Henderson would demand a development fee so that is where the money is coming from. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthBank Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Hope we are at least asking about Behich at Utd. Excellent left wing back that we so badly need but probably out of our price range. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FTOF Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 If we sign Fletcher, then whoever plays alongside him is going to have to be brilliant at closing down opposition defenders. Does Nahmani fit the bill in that respect or will a fit, rejuvenated Ayunga suffice? Or even Greive. We sort of played that way when Watt was with us, as he wasn't exactly dynamic with respect to closing down players and Main did the donkey work. If we get Fletcher on a one year deal and if he stays fit and his legs haven't gone, then given his aerial prowess and eye for goal, he'd be a welcome addition. However, the staying fit and the him not being "done" are the major risks, on what will be a significant wage no doubt. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 (edited) Brophy will sign for County and score a few goals in his first five or six games (probably against us), prompting the utter morons who despise Robinson to have another meltdown. Then, in a series of events no one could possibly have seen coming, Brophy will get injured for a couple of months, our strikers will be scoring and said morons will quietly disappear.

Mulgrew is the perfect example. Ok, older, but experienced, he might be at the end of his career but he's been solid and not looked out of place, I'm sure he'll easily do another year. Then you saw the year he had, I'm not comparing Mulgrew with Fletcher, but Mulgrew's dramatic fall is testament to just how quickly things can go South when you are at that age.

pozbaird Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Glad to see we’re finally linked with this type of transfer speculation… Fletcher signs for Motherwell - They’re welcome to him. Will be on high wages, desperate stuff from ‘Well. Fletcher signs for St Mirren - Shrewd move from Robbo. He’ll get the best out of him even for one season. At last. The new strip, and some speculation. The close season was shite until now. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
