True_Don Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Signed on a free until end of season. Right back and centre half cover...decent signing given the circumstances. Link to comment
boboisared Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Pretty sure he has a decent long throw on him too. Unit of a lad. Link to comment
DelMonte Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Pretty sure he has a decent long throw on him too. Unit of a lad.More than decent. It's a fucking huge throw. Makes a fine change from Logans shite attempts. 1 Link to comment
Oregon Red Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 He's been out of the game for 8 months, but really expierienced at a high level. Could be great coverage. Link to comment
fine-n-dandy Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 No idea who he is or how good. Glad we worked so quick to find someone. Challenger for Logan should have been signed LONG ago though. Especially if Ball is not seen as enough Link to comment
aberdeen1970 Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Could be worse I suppose . Regular in the championship for years. Not sure why he hasn't had a club this season though. 34. Might take a bit of time to get match fit. He's 6ft 4 so was a strange sight running up and down the wing when he played right back for Reading. McInnes will love him though. Can play right back, centre back, central midfield or even up front on occasions. Link to comment
Shinniesta Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Played 28 times for Cardiff last season. Seems strange he hasn't had a club this season considering Cardiff got promoted when he was there. Link to comment
King Street Loon Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 A 34 year old who probably isn't even remotely match fit.Hud me back. How long is it going to take to get him up to speed?Also, what does it say about any of the young lads?Virtanen plays right back doesn't he?@@ollie1903 or any others? Is he any use?? Link to comment

Would much rather see the youth get a chance and build on it and get experience instead a player who will be forgotten about this time next year Link to comment
Tord31 Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 bench tomorrow and then a start on Sunday welcome aboard Alan Tate MK II Link to comment
KidCreole Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Certainly got a lot of experience with some big clubs, Am a bit concerned as to why he was without one this season though but as mentioned above could be a good signing on short notice. Big chap as well probably capable of heading tin the odd cross Link to comment
Guest milne_afc Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Shut the youth department. Link to comment
BWG Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Aye something is wrong with our youth development when we are signing a 34 year old who hasn't played for 8 months, rather than give a youngster a chance. 1 Link to comment
Peter Pickles Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 This doesn't say anything at all about our youth development, it's just replacing Hoban with Halford. There was a hole in the squad and we've filled it from the free transfer scraps that were lying around between transfer windows. Link to comment
BitWait Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Mick McCarthy when asked about Greg Halford “I deserved the sack just for signing him”......lol , we shall see but I think on recent performance Ball has the jersey for now and it's up to Greg to try and be first choice. Experienced squad signing as cover for the rest of the season methinks. Good one Derek. Link to comment
Dynamo Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Don't have a problem with this signing. We needed to bring someone in due to both Hoban and Logan getting injured. Good luck to the lad. 2 Link to comment

sooth_stander Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Talented player. Played in goals too once upon a time. Good family stock. His uncle is the singer with Judas Priest, Rob Link to comment

V for Vendetta Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Hard to know if he'll have the fitness to just walk into the team. If he doesn't we could hardly see him play at all - might take several weeks for him to get up to a level to play. I'd quite like to see one of the young lads given a start against Hamilton with Harford coming on for the last 20 mins. Link to comment
Mr John Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 I'm going to shock you all by welcoming him & waiting to see how he does, given that I have zero influence on how things go for our club, in spite of the ridiculous number of replica shirts I have. 1 Link to comment
Zeus Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Can't do any worse against Kent than Logan did.Aye. And fuck Ryan Kent. Rat looking bastard Link to comment

Got on the park against the huns and shat himself. 1 Link to comment
minijc Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Wolves fan I speak to says he's the worst player he's ever seen play for them. Link to comment

Daniel Harvie had great reviews from the lads who watched the younger age groups. Got on the park against the huns and shat himself.That’s because he was another hun cunt, probably in awe at his hereos. Another bad move from McDogshit, the youngsters never let him down, time he started showing more faith in them. Link to comment

We're currently playing a CM there in both reserves and first team. I've no issue with this signing. If it was a winger, striker or CM then I'd be annoyed. Link to comment
