The only way you could have signed him now is on a loan deal. He's out of contract with us in the summer and won't be back anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get a grip of yourself. Did he not injure himself when tackling someone as well? Admittedly, he hasn't had long - 20 mins in the league but he also featured against Elgin. Too early to judge properly either way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After doing some investigation, he left Falkirk on Thursday to have talks with Ayr , seemingly a deal was discussed then , misunderstanding as it says he has left club , what they could have said was he is going on loan ( possibly was waiting on confirmation that Smith was going ) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While he had a player either side waiting for a pass. aye, him. There was space there to run into, he actually attempted something - I have no issue whatsoever with that. Other than that he made a couple of passes, and certainly wasn’t awful. As already said, he may be awful but his cameo showed he should be given a chance... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That same poster said we were signing Liam Craig in the summer. I’m guessing Todd has been told he won’t feature in the first team and was free to find a club on loan.

It's just weird - up there with the Bermuda triangle thing. There certainly have been a few examples over the last few years, and Josh Todd absolutely is one of them. He was excellent for us before earning his move to Dundee (I think he signed a pre-contract with them the season they were relegated, just after he'd played a decent part in knocking them out of the cup). Things clearly haven't gone well for him since, though. There is definitely a player in there, though. Could go either way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanayr1987 Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 Who was the last player to sign from Falkirk that was “done”? Probably our best midfielder of the last 3 seasons 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 Todd seems to have been good at Dumbarton, very good at Queens, mediocre at St Mirren and poor at both Dundee and Falkirk, so very much a mixed bag and it would appear he can be good in a certain type of setup, so who knows ? Ultimately the guy is only 26 so shouldn't be past it and all we can do is give him a chance as writing him off before he's even kicked a ball would seem rather ridiculous, even for us !!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we'll still get another "out of the blue" announcement ?? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's had a lot of trouble with a shoulder issue, as others have mentioned maybe the injuries are catching up with him but for me he's very slow, loses possession a lot, and contributes not a lot. Maybe a change of scenery will do him good, I'm not sure if you still have Arbroath to play away but I'd certainly consider dropping him for that or the wind will almost certainly put him on the treatment table. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
