At least they've not had the cheek to ask us for money for season tickets and the like. I reckon pre season training will be back next weekend at the latest so they'll need to get moving. How was Dylan Easton at you guys, magic man or sand dancer...... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scored a couple of beautiful goals, one against a Celtic XI in a friendly and one on his league debut against Montrose. Unfortunately, he was crocked against Arbroath a few games later and that was the last we saw of him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David W Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 16 minutes ago, Passionate said: How was Dylan Easton at you guys, magic man or sand dancer...... He was terrific. We played Kilmarnock in his first competitive game and they couldn't get near him. He was thoroughly entertaining to watch albeit a wee bit irritating in that he'd sometimes keep the ball himself rather than passing it. I'll be honest, it didn't actually irritate me at all. What surprised me most was the number of times he won the ball back high up the pitch. He got injured in September and still finished third in assists for the season. What's clear I think is that the team has to be built around him. And that will have an impact if he ends up missing a run of games. Following that injury we just got progressively worse. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clyde85 Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 That goal he scored against Montrose is one of the best I’ve seen at broadwood. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CM. Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 (edited) Conrad Balatoni signs. Quite content with that. Edited June 15, 2021 by C. Muir 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ignoramus Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 OK, happy enough with that. Get a younger head next to him Lang style and we’re talking. I’m hoping the fact because it’s early, we might get a few more? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_bully_wee Posted June 15, 2021 Author Share Posted June 15, 2021 Two years ago that'd be a great signing, now not so much. I'm pretty sure Edinburgh had started using him sparingly at the end of the season, whether that was fitness related or not I'm unsure.ETA: Big Bad Conrad does having a passing resemblance to Pat Scullion, though, so he will be afforded greater patience than most in these quarters [emoji8] 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLClyde Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Still only 30 so should be fit enough to play most games, think he’s a good signing in terms of quality and experience. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FREDDYFRY Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 (edited) I’m pleased enough with that, certainly a class act in his day. He is 30? Surely not, I thought he’d be 35 at least. If that was the case then I’m delighted. The Balatoni I watched for Edinburgh couple of years ago was better than Howie or in fact Lang (on last seasons performances). Fingers crossed we are still getting that player. Edited June 15, 2021 by FREDDYFRY 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David W Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 He certainly played like he was 35 the last couple of times we played them. Albeit having been excellent on the previous occasions. That said, he is a major improvement on the current situation. Can easily see him being a good partner for a certain type of centre half. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BullyWeeStonehouse Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 a centre half with loads of experience who has played at the top level. Just what we are needing. Pleased with this one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pride Of The Clyde Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 (edited) Thank god everyone is pleased with this signing, i wasn't sure, initially i thought he was well into his 30's but i do remember he was a very capable CH. Hopefully he still has another good season or 2 in him. Edited June 15, 2021 by Pride Of The Clyde 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clydeside Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 A positive spin might be that there's some hearsay evidence to suggest we beat Dumbarton to Balatoni's signature. See their thread. Balatoni fits the bill insofar as he's a central defender that can play a bit. We don't have any of those. As a sweeper in a three he could be an asset. However in a two, especially if paired with Rumsby, I think we'd be asking for trouble if we started him. Unless his partner was an outstandingly dominant centre back that is. Then maybe we'd have a tolerable balance. He's not the quickest. And he's not the biggest or greatest in the air. That's why I say what I do. But he does have decent experience and is a good, composed player in possession most of the time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
