Guest Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 1 hour ago, Lochwood said: I agree totally we must get better than him if we are to progress, couple of decent performances recently but no more than that can’t believe we have resigned him. Looking at it another way, we've just beaten two of the top sides in the league both away from home and McGinty as well as playing for 90 mins in both directly assisted in one of our goals at Rugby park and indeed scored one at Inverness. We've spent most of the season lambasting the guy and much of it was deserved, however I think we all need to be fair here and give him the credit he's due when things are going well and right now they are, both for Sean himself and the team in general. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayr23 Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Obviously did , speaks highly of him , If Bullen thinks he is right for the team now he has the right partner beside him and a midfield in front of him then that will do for me It was a wee joke Robbo. I'm supportive of Bullen and his plans for McGinty. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lochwood Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Mcginty will go on to have horror shows, I agree the culprit for this is Hopkin with the deal he gave him, in recent games you can see Muirhead is doing all the organising and playing the deeper of the two which is laughable considering Mcginty is supposed to be the Leader/ Captain on the park. I’m sorry but if Bullen sees him leading us next year the wheels will come off, I’ve spoke to three coaches in the stand from 3 different teams this season and when you mention him they just smile and one of them said why do you think we offloaded him he’s a liability. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last 3 games playing with a better balanced team he has been decent , 3 coaches you have spoken to don’t rate him , yet all his previous and current manager have made him captain , suppose he is going to be a marmite character, but I trust Bullen knows better than us his capabilities to the way he wants the team to play -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superhursty7 Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 You either love McGinty or hate him no in between it seams, but of the bottom 6 only Morton have conceded less goals than us and i can only recall Partick giving us a doing, he's here for the foreseeable so whatever his limitations let's just hope that Bullen gets the best out of him going forward. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted February 25, 2022 Author Share Posted February 25, 2022 I couldn’t make it in the end last night and I’m a bit annoyed as it sounded like a decent night. Hopefully I can get along to the next one. I’m please that we’re already looking at extending contracts for next season and I think we’ll end up with the majority of this seasons current bunch re-signing. The only ones I can see us letting go are Fjortoft, Albinson, O’Connor and I think we could maybe lose Reading and who knows what’ll happen with Adeloye. McAllister is probably another that we’ll either loan out or let go permanently. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyrExile Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Rather fortunate timing this announcement appeared after our two recent wins. Whilst the ship has been steadied recently there were some howling displays earlier on. Suppose the only thing worth focusing on is getting enough points to remain in the league. If we stay up then hopefully enough cover elsewhere should the calamity return. if we end up in the league below then maybe not a bad signing 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trogdor Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 (edited) I cannot get behind that decision. That is utterly mind blowing. What the f**k is going on? Has McGinty got pictures of Bullen? Fucking hell. If we have any illusions of getting into the promotion playoffs next season starting McGinty is not the way to do it. I've been really positive about things at the club as of late but that's an utterly rancid decision. Edit - Those content to blame Hopkin should pause for thought. He's definitely a factor for giving the haddy a contract. However, Bullen has played him and benched Baird. We could have played Baird and benched McGinty. Given its clearly been linked on appearances that's what we should have done. What a fucking riddy.

There was a clause which said if he played X games then new deal it is. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an automatic contract extension based on appearances though so not sure what else the club can do. For all the stick he gets it's worth noting he's missed 8 games this season and we only won 1 of those and conceded 15 goals in the process so it's not as if we suddenly improve without him in the team and other partnerships have proven to be stronger than the current Muirhead / McGinty one. Given Bullen likes balance I'm sure a left footed CB will be a target in the summer and based on last night it didn't sound like the target is necessarily the promotion play-offs next season (unless we get relegated). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be pretty concerned if the target next season wasn’t the championship promotion play off positions tbh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's played in the team in its best form of the season, idiots like Baird or Fjørtoft shouldn't get a pass to play and weaken the no good defence just so someone's contract isn't extended. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An utterly rancid decision.Right now Bullen thinks McGinty is a better option than Baird so he has to play him. He can’t pick his team based on contract clauses for next season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
