Its maybe a high bar that he has set, but for me he's dipped below it. Maybe it is a high bar he’s set but I think he’s been pretty good. Probably have him down as our second best player so far this season Link to comment

Then I'd have McKenzie, Brown and Ojo ahead of him. Maybe he squeezes in in 5th, fighting with Considine, Ramirez, Hedges and even McCrorie. He had a cracking start against Hacken at home, but since then....... Hacken away - no influential enough Breidablik away, scored the header, but then hooked at half time Subbed off at Utd Average against Hearts and Ross County 1 Link to comment

Surely needs game time to progress as well though. Assuming if he did come in it would mean a back 3 (with wingbacks) and a youthful defence Ramsay - 18 year old RB / RWB McKenzie - 21 year old LB / LWB Hamilton - 19 year old CH Bates - 24 year old CH / McCrorie - 23 year od CH Gallagher - 30 year old CH Link to comment

Medical could be arranged to be done in Copenhagen by a local doctor. Might not make Mr Clarke too happy but he knows this is deadline day and offers might come in for some of his squad. They're flying out at 3pm from Edinburgh, not much more than an hour's flight so plenty time over there for it to take place Link to comment

IF ferguson goes we could easily use that cash to get a winger. Most likely gonna see Kennedy leave I reckon as Glass doesn't seem to rate him, does leave us a wee bit short in terms of out and out wingers Link to comment

Agree. Succession planning. Could be Considine’s last season. Even if it isn’t, we should be looking at a long-term replacement. Jamie Hamilton may be it. Bates is young enough too, at 24. In an ideal world a fast winger or a good no10 comes in but very unlikely - can’t afford to do it all in one window probably. Link to comment

slippers Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 I hope Ferguson does go and I hope George is correct with the "BIG" signing in centre mid. Very little being speculated but Ferguson isn't in any of the video montages of Scotland squad training so it could well be on. From what I heard Hamilton was an option but we choose Bates as figure was alot lower. Dont think Hamilton will happen. Link to comment

Don't think we will go back to the back 3 thing again though. Under normal circumstances I think we'd sign him and immediately loan him back to Hamilton for 6 months but we are so short of central defensive cover that I don't think we could risk doing that Link to comment

Lewis has had a couple of mistakes but also some really good saves so have him in there just below Link to comment

But needs to be registered today (i think in Scotland we allow a couple of hours beyond the official close of the window for medicals to be completed) If not registered before then a player wouldn't be able to play until the next window opens. So would be pretty pointless signing them on that basis Link to comment

Do right by the club and walk away or maybe take a roll in the coaching staff Devlin should absolutely walk away. Would like another winger , we may have to try and get a tune out of McGinn from the bench. Think we are still short of an out and out striker to back up Rameriz . Samuels maybe good in a two up front or on the wing. Will be interesting to see who leaves . Glass may need another window to get where we need to be but overall I think we are shaping up nicely Link to comment

I had Ferguson down as very disappointing this season, especially after the first couple of games where he excelled.

slippers Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Some absolutely disgusting rumours being discussed on other forums.

As a club legend, there should be no pressure and full commitment to help rehabilitate. Only once that's completed (and I'd guess nearer Easter than Christmas), then a decision could be made as to whether there is a need for him. I personally want to see Andy in a Dons shirt again, even if its just a farewell end of season game. His last game shouldn't be getting injured on a shite pitch in Baku. He's also shown already that he's stepped in for coaching sessions at the youth groups, so no issue with him continuing as part of the coaching team Link to comment
