Craig Conway was literally hounded out of the club before going onto have a career that flew in the face of the online experts. I don't believe Forrest will go onto have the same career before anyone asks but what I do think is fair to say is that wide players can often be under appreciated. Your perma-rager postings are quite something to behold these days Not good enough for Celtic = Shite He played for Ayr and won a move to Livingston based on him having the quality to be a top end Championship player, if he was consistently his best in every game, he'd be playing for Celtic. I have lauded Forrest on here for years, the amount of appearances and goals he has made for Ayr to this point is remarkable. I expect him to be back in 2-3 years. He, like Robbie Crawford were a constant in several dreadful Ayr teams over the last 6-7 years and have outlasted dozens of better paid players with higher reputations that were shown up and hunted. Those two and Moffat kept us from relegation through the Roberts era and I was sorry to see him go but glad he has the chance to play at a higher level. But good enough for Celtic?

However I'd take him as a replacement for Forrest Zanatta is worse than garbage. He is everything that's wrong with modern-day footballers, he has no good attitude about him at all. One of the most uncommitted players, we've had in recent years (and there's been a lot) He's also not anywhere close to Forrest's level. Zanatta had a good debut, ironically, against Ayr, he's been poor, if not dreadful ever since. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would take a guess at Jullian Dowe. I think he signed before Justin Jackson in the early 90's. Until then, Ayr were part time so unlikely to tempt anyone that hadn't came through the ranks in Scottish football by that point. I thought it was Justin Jackson but wasn't 100% sure. The early 90s were before my time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted June 8, 2020 Author Share Posted June 8, 2020 I find it strange people saying on Twitter and such places that Zanatta doesn’t have the heart or desire for a relegation fight when he was one of Alloa’s best players and top scorer (might be wrong there) when they were also in a relegation fight and managed to survive. Really hope he’s not going to be written off after one bad season where that Partick Thistle side were full of worse players. He’d be a more than good signing for a team in this league although he is a different type of player to Forrest but realistically we ain’t getting a like for like replacement there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was one of the worst. Although your point about Alloa, is correct, he was quite decent for them, to be fair. But based on his stint with us, to succeed in the game, he'll need to be a lot more committed to the cause, especially at the level, he'll be playing at. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rb123! Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 See in England they're talking of extending the transfer window until October.

No Conway hater outed..... Don't quite kno how you manage to judge me and my mood from a largely positive post that bemoans losing a talented homegrown player from the squad, but fair play.

davidkennedyshand Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 My friend asked me tonight who our first black player was. Does anyone have any idea?Ally McLeod had a guy on trial who had played for the US Olympic team. I'm sure his name was Bernie Livrefois or something but I can find no evidence of that name at all. He played a few reserve games and looked pretty decent. After that George Burley had a youth player called Cortez Clarke who made some sub appearances. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tigerland Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 Looks like Dunfermline are about to lose Nesbit with Dundee United ready to make a fresh bid .

With the Pars being one of our play off rivals , any advantage is useful ....... Bit of a gamble taking Nesbit to the Premiership IMO. Especially when they already have Clark and Shankland. Plus think we need to worry more about our own squad, losing Docherty and Forrest and possibly Kelly and Doohan makes our squad look pretty poor on paper if everyone signs on for next season. Only quality players really left from the team McCall built could be Moff, Moore, Murdoch and possibly Harvie. Going to be a big ask next season considering in the last year we've lost Smith, Rose, McDaid, Crawford, Docherty, Forrest and Shankland and possibly Doohan and Harvie. That's almost enough for a starting XI in itself. Huge job Kerr has on his hands. I'm not too optimistic for the forthcoming season tbh, thought LC was optimistic saying we'd be challenging with Hearts, Inverness and Dundee for promotion. Hope i'm proved wrong.
