peternapper Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 Think we need to look for at least one or possibly two defensive players for cover to avoid falling into the trap of taking players out of the midfield to provide cover, were short in numbers yesterday suspensions injuries could be a problem we have mainly avoided so far this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was last week, he decided he wanted to stay at County & fight for a place, near sure noticed at the start of this week he had gone on loan to somebody else in a higher league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blootoon87 Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 That was in the paper today, Jim was trying to get Alex Harris but that fell through, still thinks he can get Dingwall though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough I got my wires crossed with another Dingwall I saw mentioned. Still think we may need another defender for cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt whoever we get will be one of those all round midfielders who can play anywhere. Anyway, the P&J had it at the weekend that Dingwall had turned us down. So Sun or P&J?

Good whoever he is, we could only manage 3 outfield players on the bench last week & look to be even shorter of numbers this week. Interestingly Jim is in todays paper saying he has been chasing players all week quite a few presumably colts that could gain some experience unwilling to travel (although to play in games most would be in the central belt anyway) Jim says they seem to be happy in their own wee comfort zone & don't want to put themselves out. Don't know if he got in touch with Mr McCart after ripping his master plan apart about trying to get colts into the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Johnston confirmed - http://www.dumbartonfootballclub.com/news/?mode=view&id=3436 You won't hear many good words said about him. He's very small and weak, has some pace but looked absolutely frightened any time he got a game in the Championship. Raith fans told us he was useless when we signed him and that has sadly been the case for us. He may well suit League 2 level better, but he doesn't come with a glowing report card.

Cheers for the info, as mentioned we really are short just now so he should get a chance, you never know a change of scene may give him a boost.

Jan Vojáček Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Chris Johnston undoubtedly has a bit of talent, but as the Moonster said he played like a wee kid who'd lost his way. Injuries and playing for that Raith team look to have had a major impact on him. I wish him all the best with you guys, he seems like a nice chap, and it would be nice to see him get his career back on track. He's absolutely tiny by the way. Probably second only to Stevie Murray in the shortest player I've seen competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should add he's a winger but he might actually be better in a central attacking role. As you say, it works for some players at some clubs and doesn't at others. I hope he does well because he seemed to have a lot of promise at Kilmarnock but we really haven't seen much of that at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peternapper Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 With Nicky Riley now out for the rest of the season think Jim was looking for a winger to be used when I needed. Still think we need some cover at the back as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
