I don't get what people see in Robson, really poor again yesterday. I'd have Moore ahead of him and that's saying something. The squad needs totally gutted. Would agree, I despair when fans speak highly about some of the current squad- have they not watched the past 15 or 16 months or so? With that said anything approaching a decent striker might well change things for us , there is just no threat at all from us at times. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would keep Nditi and Slater as well though he seems off elsewhere. One bit of good news is I’m sure Nditi is half way through a two year contract. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fafc1885 Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 (edited) McCallum, Nditi, Brindley, Munro, Thomson, Whyte are all under contract for next season. McCallum, Nditi and Thomson - Happy to keep. Whyte - Hopefully we can get the old Whyte back but injury issues are concerning. Brindley - The boy is just not a left back sadly. Munro - He seems to get a pass from some fans because he scored goals last season. Consistently makes errors that cost us and for a big guy is outmuscled a lot. No idea how he managed a new deal. The others in the squad: Kennedy & Sanderson - Bin, get a decent back up in to challenge Marc. Docherty - Hasn’t been as bad since he signed permanently, but I wouldn’t give him a new deal, only reason I would is if it was as a back up option. Flanagan - He can go from playing well to being so lazy, unfortunately the latter happens more often. Wouldn’t give him a new deal. Hutton - I’ve liked him more this season than I did last, not that he’s been great but he does his job. See what I said about Docherty in terms of a new deal. Ross - I’d keep him, I’d imagine he’ll improve as the squad around him does. Slater - Likely going to Arbroath anyway. Armour - Wasn’t a fan when he signed but deserves a new deal, I’m not saying he’s the answer for goals or he’ll get more than he has this season but as an option he can still chip in. Aitken - Get as far away from the club as possible. McCluskey - Hasn’t had the same effect as last season, undecided on him but feel like he would be best moving on. Knew I’d forget someone.

speedframe Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 3 hours ago, Dan Steele said: I'd definitely have Hutchinson as first choice in any team. Seb Ross, Finn Robson, Craig Thomson. Roberto Nditi () would also feature. Slater obv. Controversy time - McCallum needs a good kick up the arse. He's bloody good but getting a bit too complacent, so rest him and get in a goalie who'll put real pressure on him. Nothing wrong with a bit of controversy re McCallum, but I'm struggling with Ross, maybe it's me but I've just not seen anything approaching enough from him. Agree with Nditi & Slater though that maybe out of our hands. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jupiter Jazz Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 (edited) On top of who's signed up I'd only keep Slater and Flanagan. Edit: Hutchinson also, if he's released. Edited April 23, 2023 by Jupiter Jazz 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon Hutchinson will be kept at United and loaned to a lower championship/top league one side. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 Let's get in someone who can cross a ball. Because none of the current squad can Especially Slater, for all his ability his delivery into the box is horrendous. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomson & Nditi aren't too bad, hopefully a high quality left back who can cross (Luke Strachan esq) will be on Ray's summer shopping list. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Largely agree with this except comments regarding the goalies as we may or may not have a more than decent back up or rival for Marc. By what I hear Kennedy is great in training but I suppose Marc has the occasional blunder but not enough to be dropped then we can see what the others have to offer? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1320Lichtie Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 How well does Slater get about the park and how well does he do the dirty side of the game? Obviously just rumours but they’re strong ones. If we get him and he can get about the park I’ll be pleasantly surprised 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally don't think he's championship quality. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
