I hope you can quote me on this and laugh at me down the line But very much appears in the category of a signing you just know is going to be shite and at no point during their dons career do you ever doubt it Link to comment
thedandydon Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Expectations are low so will just have to see how he fits in. Not much to go on and the Atlanta incomings bar has been set pretty low thanks to Gallacher but who knows. Link to comment
Donmacca Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Have to laugh at the club. The Scott Brown our number 8 post is clearly out to distract for the Gurr signing and the reception it's got Link to comment

There’s nothing to suggest this signing will be anything other than not good enough. He’s barely kicked a professional football & he's 26 in 5 months. Link to comment
SupportmeansSUPPORT Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Glass telling Scott Burns he is hoping to get another 2 or 3 signing in. Obviously Gurr has now signed after this interview so that probably means 2 more. We know he wanted Clark Robertson so have to assume he wants a left centre back and you would assume Ramirez is the other one. I really hope he means 2 or 3 more before those euro games but there will still be more to follow after that additionally. If he means 2 or 3 more for the full season we are going to be in for a long hard season. Also, from this i think that those of us such as @Tord31 who were hoping that JET would be our 3rd choice striker are also in for a disappointment too. https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-transfer-news/aberdeen-transfer-latest-jack-gurr-24366234 "Glass hopes to land Ramirez and one or two more signings before the Dons open their Europa Conference League campaign with a clash with with BK Hacken next month." Scott Brown, Declan Gallagher, Teddy Jenks and Jay Emmanuel-Thomas have also joined up at Pittodrie. “We will add two or three,” Glass confirmed. “The additions have already come in. “You see teams adding to their group now but it shouldn’t be forgotten that we have added Scott, Declan, Jay and Teddy. “That is four already so we have done a good amount of business so far. “We are still looking to add. In terms of numbers we could have added another five, six or 10 players. “But we want to make sure we get the right players in who are going to help us. That is important. “There will be enough of a turnover of people in the building and it was important that that happened." 1 Link to comment

Interested to see why he thinks Gurr is the right kind of player required, everything suggests he's nowhere near good enough . Reading between the lines it looks as if Ramirez will be as exciting as it gets this summer. If Ramirez is a bad signing we are in for a difficult season. Link to comment

The only tiny bit of hope i can take from that is that he says "one or 2 more before the ECL game". If it's just one or 2 more full stop then we are up shit creek without a paddle. Need 2 strikers minimum, 2 wingers and ideally a left sided CH. Guessing there may be more movement once clubs return for pre season and we can do a bit of wheeling and dealing. Punt Ojo, Kennedy, hopefully McLennan. And then there's still the Ferguson situation to deal with. Link to comment
Donmacca Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Awful lot of bed wetting happening here. Think I'll join you once this Swedish mob punt us out of Europe. The Glass era has shades of McGhee about it Link to comment
Zander1903 Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 can Cormack afford this experiment not to work? pretty obvious Glass was gonna be his man since we started this american love in but im not worried that its gonna be as bad as McGhee's tenure Link to comment

We've a manager clearly appointed through who he knows over what he's done coaching in the game. The Brown signing is similar to signing Hartley, hopefully with a different result. McGhee obviously have more experience but can see the same mistakes being made Link to comment
RedRichard Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 With McCrorie as #2 maybe our CDs this season will be him Gallagher, Considine and Devlin, and he won't bother going for an alternative to Clark Robertson. And obvs RBs Gurr and Ramsay, LBs MacKenzie (#3) and Hayes. 1 Link to comment

And we’re a bit light in positions. 2 strikers (if Ramirez signs) & weak in defence. 1 Link to comment

Unprepared as usual no doubt Without a doubt it's our biggest game of the season. But i suspect there will be a lot of teams unwilling to part with players under contract until later in the window when they have replacements in. With the exception of EPL teams sending youngsters out on loan. And we need to see how Ferguson situation plays out (haven't seen him in any pre season shots from AFC). Link to comment

Ramirez Not exactly sure on formation but trying to compare probable starting 11 against Rangers in last game to how we could lineup in ECL. Certainly don’t look weaker. If we could get a few quality players in before end of window we might not be in terrible shape of certain players live up to the billing. Think Jet for example could be a cult hero or a absolute disaster with no middle ground. If we lose Ferguson he would definitely need to be replaced with real quality unless Jenks is the real deal?

And if Ramirez is hoping to come here and rediscover his goal scoring form of 4 years ago, Ive no idea who he thinks in that team is going to be setting them up for him. Link to comment
