Though I doubt we'll see the likes of Stewart and Polvara back. I'll be surprised if Stewart's next move is not sorted in the next 4-5 weeks ahead of pre season starting. Polvara is doing well so it might seem a no brainer for him to extend whether its loan again or transfer Link to comment
Russell Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 I think the Myslovic issue is he was signed in January rather than the summer and just thrown in when the reports when he signed were that he'd need time to get used to the league. Get him in permanently. Link to comment

I am watching with interest to see if any youngsters make the step up next season such as Milne, Ngwenya and i know Lewis is under contract but realistically he'll need be 3rd choice Link to comment

Think it was posted that he was seen at the airport early on the week heading back to Amsterdam with a shitload of luggage. Given Lewis was on the bench yesterday, presumably he's been allowed to leave early, maybe with a proviso that if anything happens to Roos before our last match that he returns? Link to comment

Surely his fate is sealed if Richardson is getting a full game and he's not even getting off the bench? Link to comment

Feels like every window we lose some but bring less in and it's felt like that for a while. If we do get 3rd and group stage football you'd hope we'd sign even more as we're going to need a bigger squad Link to comment

Aye that's because a % of the players released are generally ones that come through our youth system who are then replaced in turn by a few from the next batch. 1 Link to comment
Tord31 Posted May 22, 2023 Author Share Posted May 22, 2023 Folk tried, over and over again, to claim we wouldnt sign 10 players last summer. Some folk claimed we'd sign 6 players which was an absolutely wild shout. We signed 11 in the end up. We'll beat that this summer (May-Sep) if you count re-signing any of the 12 ooc players.

fine-n-dandy Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 Goodwin definitely appeared to have a knack of painting players he didn’t like as the ‘bad guys’ to make sure the fans (reliable sources) sided with his views 🤣 JG was a bit of a dick imo, he definitely had a shite attitude & self importance/stubbornness of delusional levels Link to comment

A blind man could see he was an arsehole from the minute he arrived at the club. The way he handled Considine's contract talks told us all we needed to know. Rate Considine or not, those things should be kept behind closed doors. That wasnt his first mistake either. Telling players they could go and letting 2 players leave before the end of the season was just the start of his slippery slope that would end up taking him into a relegation battle he looks likely to lose in charge of scumdee ushited. Short of saying he'd rather be at Celtic I think he had the worst start as manager we've seen. 5 Link to comment
