We've signed an attacking midfielder on a 6 month deal but still in the market for 1-2 strikers and a LB. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll take him standing anywhere so long as it's nowhere near the halfway line on the North Terracing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fell out with the manager and yet, still continued to perform. Now capped for Scotland seven times and if I remember, single handedly won the cup for Dundee United in the cup final. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In all honesty, he wasn't a huge loss for us at the time, he's carved out a fine career for himself but we didn't see much of it. A bit like us losing Forrest last season and then him going onto better things, as it is, we might yet get a fantastic season out of the youngster and wish we could keep him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a good player. Went on to bigger and better things, good for him :-) Could say that about the whole team, it's great how well they are doing but it's inevitable that some will move on to other clubs and make a name for themselves. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted August 2, 2018 Author Share Posted August 2, 2018 If we do end up selling him I hope we give ourselves enough time to get a replacement sorted. Moore and Moffat alone won’t suffice as options up front. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’d struggle to find someone that fits the way we play so well and has the ability to go with it.It doesn’t change the fact we’d have to find a striker that could come in if he does go and at this stage we won’t find one that’s not already at a club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyrTroopMajor Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Can we all just calm it right down and accept that the likelihood of Sir Lawrence of Ayrshire going anywhere else in this transfer window is slim to none. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, the boy knows another good season at the Stadium of Dreams could set his career up for a long while to come. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North Terrace Gazza Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 If an English championship side come in with a sizeable bid then the player will want to go and we would probably reluctantly take the cash. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rb123! Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Realistically though who is there that we'd get for £250k and would all of that money even go to the budget or used for the wider finances at the club. Benefit we have is that the English transfer window shuts next week I'm sure and not the end of August like usual. Gives us a better chance of keeping him because I doubt he'll go to another Scottish club, can't see any splashing out £250k. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superhursty7 Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 The difference of him leaving now and and the end of the season is massive, if all goes well we will have had a successful season and finished well above the relegation dog fight and maybe had a decent run in the cups making us a more attractive proposition for players to join and may be have a bit more money to spend, if he goes now that situation is less likely, let's just enjoy him whilst he's here and hopefully take a bit of pride that our support and club helped him get his career back on track 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
