Durrant Dived Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 Hopefully if Dunne is coming, he is replacing this clown. Can't be more injured than him. 1 Link to comment

redcryptoknight Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 If and when he finally gets fit what will his confidence be like? I imagine not good. Devlin at Aberdeen seems like a sunk cost. Link to comment
beef_sister Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 Get him out the fucking door. Absolute wage thief Link to comment
Granite95 Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 2 appearances since the start of the 2020/2021 season, criminal he's been given two new contracts since then, surely to goodness he's released in the summer? 4 Link to comment
WesthillWanderersFC Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 I feel sorry for him as it’s obviously something that must get him down, but we’ve been more than fair. Time to let him go & free up a wage for a 4th central defender that will be available. As long as it’s not Charles Dunne. 2 Link to comment

The club have gone above and beyond for him but a parting of the way is now required. I won't be surprised when his rethrement from football is announced. Link to comment

ROBBIE75 Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 would injure his eyes watching tv this guy,time to get rid!!!!!! Link to comment
Andy_123 Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 Fucking hell. Surely we’re cutting our loses with him in summer. The wage/treatment cost to minutes played ratio for him must be astronomical. Feel a bit sorry for the guy, but at the same time at what point does he realise professional football is too much for his feeble body? Link to comment

Aye, only so much the body can take before it’s time to give up. It’s different areas too. Knee, ankle, calf. All over. Just doesn’t have the body to cope with professional sport. Link to comment

Six figures allegedly - £100k minimum. £100k too much. If you see St Mirren’s fans comments they’d be happy to see him go, especially if we’re paying a fee. Link to comment

RUL Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 Released at end of season, Goodwin confirmed today. Link to comment
JamieMT Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 Sorry that his time at the club played out the way it did. Very talented player and a good signing (at the time), just incredibly unfortunate with injuries. Being ruthless, from a Club perspective it's absolutely the correct move. I wish him every success going forward. Hopefully he'll regain his fitness and enjoy a good career elsewhere. Link to comment
torry_battery_ram Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 Good to see Goodwin has the balls to get rid of the permanent crocks like Devlin and McGeouch while also being ruthless in telling Brown and Considine to go. 2 Link to comment
aberdeen1970 Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 Aye this one was a no brainer. Should have been a no brainer last summer and at Xmas as well. Link to comment

Exactly. Finally a manager who has the balls to make the hard but correct decisions. I like the cut of this guy's jib he's exactly what we need right now a no nonsense manager who will not accept the football club he manages being a soft touch in any department. Shame for Devlin he started so well but his body is clearly made of glass which with his injury record before he came here was always a worry. Nice guy, great attitude and decent when fit but unfortunately no use to AFC as he is never fit. He will struggle to get a contract at a club and I imagine any one he does manage to get will be on a pay as you play basis. I genuinely wish him luck it's a shame it never worked out. 4 Link to comment
Andy_123 Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 Finally. Has the SFA insurance money eventually run out? Retirement probably his next step. Link to comment

Should never have been allowed to continue for this long. Was constantly appearing on RedTV, telling us he was ‘getting close…’ he’s managed to make it through his latest contract award without kicking a ball! Whoever sanctioned his last contract should also be taken outside and shot. Another top earner off the books is excellent news for the rebuild too! Goodwins budget should be very healthy. 1 Link to comment
