D'Jaffo Posted January 24, 2022 Author Share Posted January 24, 2022 what's Joe chalmers like lads?I’d say he probably does the same job as Dorrans but not as well. He’s very left footed and slow and doesn’t do well when he has to muck in and help out. He has had the odd good game for us but it’s very rare tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The majority of the time he hides or passes quickly to a defender marking an Ayr player. Ayr maybe wasn't the right fit for him and he turns out to be decent, played most of his career in the top half of the championship or the Premier so there is a player there. We just never saw it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HMIP Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 What a strange move. We are woefully short of midfield options and can’t imagine what Dunfermline see in him. Hopefully there is a bigger picture here for us with more signings to come. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted January 24, 2022 Author Share Posted January 24, 2022 Have we managed to rinse any cash off them for that as well or am I being too greedy? That should in theory help get the rest of recruitment done as I believe he was one of the higher earners in that group of dross. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayrunitedfw Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 We now need another centre mid however good to get that imposter off the wage bill. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Came to us as a marquee signing 2 years ago he’s been absolutely awful. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted January 24, 2022 Author Share Posted January 24, 2022 Just on the note of midfielders, do we have a timeframe for Mikey Hewitt coming back? I’ve no idea if we’ll go and sign another midfielder or not but if he’s coming back soon I’d like to see him involved. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like Bradley leaving, he barely played and when he did it was hardly ever 90 minutes. Which was frustrating because it often meant shoehorning in a player to play out of position who was equally as bad or worse. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayr23 Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 I'm hearing rumours Salkeld is leaving too. Probably hear that later today or sometime this week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn’t have the athleticism to consistently perform at this level. Possibly one decent game in ten or so. Amazed Dunfermline have taken him, I’m assuming we are getting another central midfielder in or we are back to only having two! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not that I rate Chalmers, it’s just that we are so short of players even with Dempsey coming in. If Murdoch gets injured, we are screwed. I can only think there are more moves afoot, particularly if Chalmers was indeed one of our high earners. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m going to Mexico tomorrow and no idea what the policy is these days of turning of for your flight gassed but if McGinty is off then I’ll be on the cans. I suspect it’ll more likely be Fjortoft if any of our centre backs go. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 He obviously wasn't doing it at Dunfermline (who were a basket case) and same goes for Dorrans as far as I'm concerned. The "names" sound good on paper but it's not the Dorrans or Watson of old, it's the washed up versions who are plying their trade at the bottom of the second tier in Scotland and failing, so it's No Thanks for me on both of them. Let's be honest, if people were upset at us signing guys from Morton, then they should be even more annoyed if we were to have signed anyone from Dunfermline, especially ones who were being dropped from a Hellish side struggling at the bottom.He got fired back around October for fucking off on holiday and breaking covid club rules I believe. Acted very unprofessionally in any case, probably Falkirk or Clyde deserve the c**t. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Started to get some running done today , but think he is about at least 4/6 weeks away from playing 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
