Yes, in the past but his record the last 18 months at Club and International Level us abysmal, he should not be starting games on this basis. The fact he now plays in a a pub league should solidify that

He's a back up player in that league as well. Can he even stay in league one? Will he drop down to the conference next season and still people will say he's good? And still get called up!

Dykes is absolute dung, an absolute lump of wood.

Perhaps if you had listened to this helmet you might have learned something 😉 

Perhaps if you were less obsessed with having the opposite opinions to posters that you’ve developed some strange wee forum feud with you’d post less pish.

I don't post much and when I do it's my opinion. I don't get swayed or feel the need to follow others. Perhaps you should try that as well.

I'll come to you if I need your expert advice on changing my username when a new one doesn't satisfy my humiliation kink.

I don’t, thanks. Your whole thing on here is being desperate to get one over on posters you’ve taken a dislike to.

I'm not Dykes biggest fan but he was decent(ish) in the most recent games for us and deserves a grace period to some extent.

That being said, if he is struggling for minutes in league one, it won't be long at all until better options will be available. By all accounts he was dreadful when he came on yesterday according to Birmingham fans so hasn't endeared himself early doors to his own fans.

Hope he can turn it around, was a risky move dropping a league and I'm not convinced he has the ability to truly turn it around but obviously for Scotlands sake I hope he can.

At the end of the Portugal game, I was pretty convinced that Dykes was our best option up front. However, I did say that was also to do with our style of play suiting him better with Adams. Dykes is having a woeful time, we absolutely have to move away from needing to fire the ball up the park to a big guy to get up the park. 

Three in behind Adams of McTominay, Gauld and Doak with Gilmour and Christie in behind them can absolutely do that. 

I’m pretty confident we will continue to play in the same way though, so there isn’t much point starting Adams - unless as a number ten.

Like the look of that midfield and forward line if McGinn is out but no way Christie is being played CDM under Clarke, he's had ample chances to do that yet thinks he can do better as a plodding winger!

Spent two hours with the nephew yesterday scraping 'Dykes' off the back of his Scotland shirt. Poor lad is distraught at how shite he's become.

Become?

Yeah, I completely agree - I’m not sure why Clarke just seems to hate the idea of playing Christie where he has now shown he is more effective. 

There’s a reason he wasn’t getting a game for Bournemouth as an attacking midfielder.

He would complement Gilmour well too, so it is frustrating. McLean doesn’t IMO.
