The fact he should be sitting in the bench most weeks this season? Just because someone shouts at team mates a lot doesn’t make them captain material 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottishLoon Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 (edited) Just saw this and it says he was highly sought after before signing with them. can't help but feel we might of been one of the clubs interested since we're going for this more local based approach this season. https://montrosefc.co.uk/2023/06/22/petrie-signs-promising-junior-striker-batchelor/ Edited June 22, 2023 by ScottishLoon 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chances are Montrose pay a little more and play at a higher level so we would have lost out anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although Dale Reid at Carnoustie would be a better signing in my opinion, he’s banged them in for fun. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not surprised he's gone to Montrose though, higher level and higher pay. I think that our only striker will be some unknown youth player on loan from one of the Dundee teams. A gamble that could work but more than likely be underwhelming. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottishLoon Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 (edited) So it's only a week tomorrow that we start the season with the Montrose friendly at links park. How are we feeling about the new season? Edited June 22, 2023 by ScottishLoon 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah hopefully a bunch of them, I'm just hoping that there's some experienced attackers among them. So far we've brought in 4 players to replace the 12 players/loans Who left When it was announced pretty early that we were having a clear out I assumed we had multiple people lined up and would be building the squad early doors but that's not materialized. Before anyone says it yes I know there's still a good amount of time left but when you compare to the other clubs looking for promotion who have signed up most of their squad and are able to start pre season and work on stuff in training, it puts you on catch up and makes you wonder either who you've missed out on or why it's taken so long. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RateofKnots Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Watson and Hutchison sign 1 year deals 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fafc1885 Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Happy with Hutchinson signing, not sure about Watson but considering he was injured most of the time he might do better with a run of games. Another defender and a winger that can occasionally play up front. Is our plan to just play a 6-4-0 this season? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottishLoon Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 (edited) Well that's shut me up slightly. Delighted with Hutchinson and watson is interesting given he was injured almost the whole time but had a good reputation. Does mean we have 5 centre halves?

Loon From Outta Toon Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Hutchison was decent for us but I do find it surprising we’ve signed another Centre half. Munro up front this season? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jupiter Jazz Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 McKinnon was saying Morrison can play in midfield. I thought Hutchinson was really good, him and Allan would be a class pairing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loon From Outta Toon Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 didn’t really see what Watson offered, albeit he didn’t play many times. Even if Morrison does move into midfield that’s still a bit concerning as we would have too many centre midfielders as well. Moore, Whatley, Inglis & Ross(attacking midfield) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoonsYouthTeam Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Back 3/5 maybe? Not sure Thommo fits in a 352 though. Think Hutchinson looked good. Any of the defenders left sided as feel we need better than Brindley there. Hope we can get a fit Watson 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
