We have plenty of them I think, I’d say we’re more in need of a box-to-box and/or goal scoring type. Agree on the rest though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpInTheAyr Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 Torn on Geggan staying because he's obviously a big influence in the changing room and the team needs that type of player but his injury record can't be ignored. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D'Jaffo Posted August 11, 2020 Author Share Posted August 11, 2020 Seem to say that every season, along with some tall buggers.So we’re looking for a tall midfielder that can attack and defend and maybe chip in with a handful of goals? Can we not just bring Jamie Adams back and dope him up on painkillers every Saturday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know as well as I do that'd never happen matey, the only reason it's being mooted for Boli is because he's shite. If that was Edouard do you reckon it'd be entertained for a second? Likewise for Ayr Murdoch wouldn't be getting released ever, whereas Hair-Reid? Etc etc 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Etc etcIf Andy Murdoch broke the rules and went out and jeopardised the chance for clubs in Scotland to return to football thereby putting some of them at threat of going out the game and stopping a lot of players from earning a living then yes, I’d say get rid. I’m annoyed with the idiots up in Aberdeen and I’m annoyed with Bolingoli but I’ll be absolutely raging if an Ayr player breaks the rules. Edit: I agree though that this is all very unrealistic. However the player should at least face a suspension. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Geggan we all know and love would be perfect for completing off the midfield. Can get up and down the park and chips in with his share of goals. Sadly we haven’t seen that for the last year and a half really. I really hope we haven’t let go of him without putting out an update though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trogdor Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 A central defender is a must. In centre mid you have both Bell and Muirhead who can be deployed there. Not ideal but you have cover. At centre back there is none and invariably Muirhead and Bell will be unavailable at the same time this season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given hes had two spells and been a fan favourite/cult figure he will get a good send off. I expect we are maybe keeping him on furlough on his existing terms for as long as possible to assess our options? Not sure how long you can extend to in football. Its complicated by player registration. Skyline can probably advise if that would actually be do-able. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also if he’s been offered any sort of deal from ourselves then it’s strange that the club haven’t announced it. When the time comes the club will announce the Geggan situation, players return on 17th and currently he has not left the club so until he does or stays there is nothing to announce 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

placidcasual Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 1 hour ago, Jazzar said: Hand in the air here - I liked Geggan a lot and especially when he weighed in with a few important goals every now and then. I loved his goal celebration against THEM and that's still a great memory for me. He is/was streetwise for this league and was part of the team that scudded DU at Tannadice. Sadly, for him and me, I think his time has come - he was subbed too many times last season and that tells its own story. If you look at our results over the last few seasons with Geggan in the team compared to when he's been out, I think it would show how important he's been. I'm not averse to him staying on as a back up. There's no way the club won't acknowledge him if/when he goes. That photo against Killie alone makes him a legend. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diegomarahenry Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 The break has either helped Geggan have a proper rest and allowed him to recover from niggling injuries that have been part of his game for years or it will be too long away for him at his age and he'll be off the pace. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Venom Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 If you could guarantee Geggan staying fit for most of this (shortened) season I'd keep him for cover and dressing room/club continuity. Sadly I don't think that's possible! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D'Jaffo Posted August 11, 2020 Author Share Posted August 11, 2020 So what can we expect Very very slow but he’s half decent on the ball. Should be fine in League 2. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
