Superhursty7 Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 Just now, Coollestersmoothe said: I hope we do. And I hope it's in the Jamie Adams mould. We've been crying out for a proper CDM/general hard nut in the middle of the park. This if we could nail that kind of midfielder we are not just in the mix for promotion playoffs but for the title. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LogieLivi Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 Mikey Devlin is hands down one of the absolute worst players I've ever seen at Livi, and I watched Paul Lambert and Derek Adams "playing" for us. He's absolutely woeful and will blame everyone but himself for all the defensive mistakes he will make. Good luck to you 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, but its not like they are putting him out for a full season, they could maybe get £50k on a development fee if he had been playing regularly in league one for the last two years. I wouldn't expect any club, including Ayr to pay even half that for a player that has sat on his arse for two years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rb123 Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 Still feel like we need a defensive midfielder, would imagine loan market will be the only place you'll find one of them now. Bosun Lawal come on down, we'll sort you out with a nice flat down Ayr Beach to sweeten the deal 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diegomarahenry Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 McCall signed guys that he'd worked with before because he knew what they could bring, guys like Adams and Bell were on their way out of football and got a good couple of years out of them. Hopefully Devlin works out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aufc_ Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 Devlin will do for me. Got the feeling Brown will get the best out of him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coollestersmoothe Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 (edited) He's had a long career at a decent enough level to suggest that he'll likely strengthen the team. So I'm not sure that one poor season at Livi is the death knell of him as a player. Scott Brown knows him well enough so he must see something in him to suggest that he'll bring something to the team. And, in any case, it's not like we're pinning our defensive success on the signing of Mikey Devlin. Musonda, Mcmann and Stanger are all decent options at the back. All in all a decent signing.

wullieaufc Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 A team who’s fans consider Reece McAlear a brilliant signing should have no input in who other teams sign 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superhursty7 Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 Livingston were a basketcase last season so I'll take reviews with a pinch of salt, Brown does not come across as a jobs for the old boys type of manager, he's only going to sign folk who can actually help him achieve his ambitions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoobahabba Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 Wouldn’t pin your hopes on Devlin. Whether Brown is a good manager or not, signing him is a gamble. Looked the part at the beginning of last season but as soon as he got injured (be prepared for that btw) he was useless. Has the technique but is no longer up to it physically. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think we are pinning hopes on him, he will be used in our squad rotation along with our other defenders, competing for places. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Good" doing some lifting there: McMann - relegated Stanger - released (albeit wrongly) Oakley - released Hastie - shite Devlin - good 1 for 5 isn't bad though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
