diegomarahenry Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 Going with a smaller squad hopefully means quality over quantity, 14 or so players of a decent level plus younger players like Hewitt and Smith coming in to try and make an impression. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we get the required bodies in next season and they aren’t utterly shite then it’s unlikely our season will hang on a midfielder being able to score a handful of long range goals. In an ideal world Paul Smith and Michael Hewitt will really kick on next season but Smith has only started one game, and was very good in fairness and Hewitt is coming back from practically a whole season out. Remember Andy Murdoch took a while to get back to his best after his injury. I still think we need another midfielder. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mod1967 Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 Still another striker, midfielder, wide player and 2 centre backs for me, although I definitely think Smith will push on massively this season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thumper Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 Things were bad enough when injuries happened last season with a comparatively large squad. McCall always loved signing guys who were permanently crocked as well. With Bullen seemingly still not even decided on a permanent formation there certainly needs to be a bit of give, even if the club's stated aim is to have generalists who can play in more than one position. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mod1967 Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 Think we'll have a bigger squad than 14 plus kids tbh, more likely 16/18 plus kids 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D'Jaffo Posted June 5, 2022 Author Share Posted June 5, 2022 I think we may go into the league cup groups with a smaller squad and using four or five younger players. Then we can use those games to see what areas are needing addressed and who out of the younger group will be able to contribute this season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayrmail Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 Barry Coffey looks good, now released scored a few goals in his loan with Cork not as many assist's but only 21. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superhursty7 Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 Fairly sure he still stays in Doonfoot so it’s not a huge surprise to see him out and about in Ayrshire. He used to stay in the big fancy private estate as you leave Mauchline. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
