callum-ayr Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 Don’t think there’s too much that was said we didn’t know etc. By the sounds of some of the sound bites, I’d still expect maybe 1 or 2 outgoings. Not many controversial questions, but the guy asking about communication of the players seemed to irk Bullen as he was quite sharp with his response and ended up standing up to address the old boy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hazbart Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 27 minutes ago, D'Jaffo said: Full backs are a known issue and we are trying to address it. Ecrepont and Hewitt have basically got the ball in their court whether they want to be here as Bullen feels they have a lot of work to do but are at an age where they need to play. He did say he’d tried to sign a left back but he went to Halifax for way more money. He thinks Ecrepont is still behind Reading and feels as though the latter needs someone to really push him on as he felt he became too comfortable and that’s why his levels dropped. A quick google shows Ryan Galvin, a left wing back recently signed for Halifax from Sheffield Wednesday. At least it appears we’ve acknowledged the problem and are actively trying to fix. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, if Bullen doesn't feel he's at least on a par with Reading then it's probably best for his sake to move on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trogdor Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 Was there any mention of how many additions and of what sort of quality or characteristics we were after? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah they said we got more plus the add on. Just now, D'Jaffo said: It was a bizarre question in fairness but Bullen still answered it properly. Aye it wasn’t really a question in all honesty. “I’ll stand up so I can see you” was definitely him wanting to know what he looked like haha. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mod1967 Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 The delay in kitting out some offices will have no impact on us fans, really should calm down. The problem with LB position was a concern at the club way before Christmas and will be dealt with, it fitted someone's agenda on here for some reason that it was all about RB, that was never the case. We'll get players in no doubt, just hope Glendinng ups his game because we need quality, 4 minimum. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tocker said the question was about communication (which everyone assumed was about club to fans) and they the guy just went off on a tangent about players not communicating during the Partick games and hiding and only 2 or 3 of the players talking to each other. Bullen immediately said was there a lack of communication away at Inverness, home to QP 5-0 etc. He did go on to say we do lack that as we have a younger group, but did say they have a year more experience etc now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUcal Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 Seems they avoided any Falkirk esque "It was a statement, not a question" type scenarios, so that's a bonus Glad to hear fullback issue is known and they're looking to address it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was known way before Christmas then it’s been known about for coming up on a year, so let’s hope it’s dealt with a little more quickly now.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
