Not complaining, it’s the same price as I paid for the Championship this year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like him, but his injury record is a bit of a concern. I guess St Johnstone must have got rid of him for a reason It's complicated. He was a key player and I can't remember any injuries until November 2021, which he was inexplicably started against Celtic at Hampden 2 days after being in Japan for a friendly with Canada. Unsurprisingly he got injured and that was him until about September 2022, when it was kind of clear his prep was all about being fit and available for the World Cup in November. After that he never really played much again as Callum Davidson flailed wildly about chucking shite at the wall trying to make something work by changing things every week. MacLean came in and was faced with having to eviscerate the squad Davidson built (30+ senior players, £1.8m loss) to make us sustainable again, and when two of the higher earners are 30+ and playing the same squad role (Carey, Wotherspoon), and one is out of contract and one isn't, then he didn't have much choice but to let him go really.

Passionate Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 Silly season starting with transfer rumours, not heard this one but somebody on our thread mentioning our GK Josh Rae will be heading Tannadice way, decent keeper although your boy Walton is arguably the best in the league.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArabianKnight Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 Interesting that Goodwin has pointed out in the media today that Walton has another year left on his contract at Luton? Most sites have him listed as out of contract in June. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously the English leagues are awash with cash but that seem feckless even by their standards.

Alert Mongoose Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 Talking of feckless, I didn't realise the mighty Manchester City (along with ourselves, obviously) let him slip through their grasp. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wato_Kuaté 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Ex Manchester City starlet" type nonsense. If it was a bit later he'd have been given an instant 2 year deal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pull My Strings Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 (edited) Tbf, Wato was a player. Big, strong, good technique. You could see why he'd been at a top academy. Shame he was an absolute bell-end. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wato_Kuaté Seems to be a recurring theme: goes on trial and shows up well. Gets a contract, immediately falls out with the club and gets released early. Rinse and repeat. United did well to only give him a couple of months. Still just 28 and at a club which doesn't even have a Wikipedia page. Edited April 26 by Pull My Strings 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I was Ross I'd be asking for a decent wedge and as guaranteed as you could starting place. He bloody deserves it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captainkev Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 (edited) If there's one upside to tonight's game* it's that Walton's performance has served a useful reminder that our good defensive record this year has not just been down to a solid back-line. I'd be very happy if we could get him back next season. *Eta: Other than being crowned champions, obvz.

Reckons big wages were being offered. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Connolly Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 Every time I see Liam Grimshaw, I think he’s the worst footballer I’ve ever seen. And then I remember we have Jordan Tillson in the same fucking team. That was really poor tonight, but we got the point we needed (but didn’t really need). Hopefully the performance is better next week now everything is officially wrapped up 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did have a few doubts giving the lack of what he's faced but I think over the season now I'd be very happy to have him back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Meeker Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 We still have an Australian international goalkeeper on the payroll. Fear not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
