ayrunitedfw Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Could Danny Rodgers be an option for Goalkeeper? Released by Kilmarnock yesterday and played under Hopkin at Morton. I’m not going to get upset yet about the potential of McGinty signing but that will have massive alarm bells ringing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the love of God don't, you know that saying I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy?

He was decent at this level previously but having looked at Doyle in the last 2 games the fact he wasn’t able to able to displace him I wouldn’t want him now 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No_Problemo Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Signing McGinty would basically confirm to me the Morton fans are correct about his recruitment skills. He is just one of those players that has stood out as being fucking awful when we have played against him. I would rather have kept Roscoe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpoonTon Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 (edited) I'm going to give an honest and unpopular opinion. I think McGinty is ever so slightly better than Baird (who largely got off with being terrible because he came with a much more favourable reputation). Which isn't to say that I rate McGinty, he makes errors every single week, some of which are utterly ridiculous, some just so basic. He also made that idiotic challenge to get sent off in the final league game at Arbroath (which turned out to be a blessing for us in the playoffs). He could never have played for us again. Baird can't cope with pace, switches off constantly, and loses his bearings on a regular basis. McGinty does the same, with added hilarious errors, but probably has more basic ability than Baird. I didn't like either of them. I've already given my opinion on Fjortoft - he'll either be a hero or a calamity if he signs for Ayr. I'm still waiting on you to sign Cameron Blues as well. Another player Hoppy really likes. Edited May 26, 2021 by SpoonTon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted May 26, 2021 Author Share Posted May 26, 2021 Aye alarm bells are now going off if McGinty is confirmed. Hopkin says he’s wants winners and leaders and then goes and signs him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mcginty has been made to sound awful and would maybe benefit from playing in a lower league. This team isn't going to improve at all if this is Hopkins idea of Recruitment! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diegomarahenry Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Hopkins football philosophy is one that may not be pretty on the eye but if it gets results then I am willing to stick with it. it didn’t get results at Morton and that could be down to the players available to him, with the budget he had. At Ayr, he has a reportedly larger budget and can hopefully attract better players to help with his outcome. so why in the f**k is he signing fucking players that fucked it for him at fucking Morton? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HMIP Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Sounds like the Morton fans are going to have an entertaining season. Laughing at Ayr. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Venom Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Where were Morton in the league when Hopkin left, out of interest?I know I know, we were up and around the playoffs around then, but where were Morton sitting? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
placidcasual Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 I can just about understand Salkeld if he's being signed as a filler and for his versatility.Signing McGinty is really giving me the fear. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honest_Man#1 Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Trying not to lose the head until it’s confirmed, but I’ll be foaming at the mouth at McGinty. Genuinely one of the poorest players I’ve seen at this level in all my years of going. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpoonTon Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Only ICT and Hearts conceded fewer goals than us last season. I'd be more concerned about the signing of Salkeld than McGinty or Fjortoft, if I'm being honest. Both make ridiculous errors, though. See Fjortoft below (note the initial error and then the horrible attempt to recover from it): 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
