Can't believe some Polish mugs are paying us 500k euros for Bates. Zero puts the kybosh on that. Tips off the Polish . Link to comment
ERNIE Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 400 k is madness for a Scotland International who Rangers did not want to lose.. Link to comment
DandyWarhol Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 P&J now saying £200,000 for Bates with a sell on clause too (very optimistic) 1 Link to comment
Andy_123 Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 Maybe it’s a deal worth up to €500k including all add ons etc which he’ll never hit because he’s pish Link to comment

Tord31 Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 I do wonder if this has come out of the blue or in the pipeline just keep coming back to think Coulson is a poor signing and we could have just taken in one more defender Link to comment

I don't think he's untalented, but I do think he can be a bit clumsy and his concentration seems to drift too often for my liking. Also prone to giving away stupid needless penalties. Link to comment

YorkDon Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 Bates could never get his head round the fact he can’t get away with cuddling and shirt pulling opposition players in his own box unless he’s wearing a hun top. Link to comment

Dave Bus Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 I don’t think there was any need for the Coulson signing, why not just stick with Hancock, he’s looked good ? And we know MacKenzie is good enough at lb as well. Jonny Hayes can cover too. 1 1 Link to comment
Tord31 Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 We've reduced the amount of defenders this summer particularly centre backs. Out: Ramsay, Considine, Devlin, Gallagher, Bates In: Richardson, Scales, Stewart, Coulson It felt like we were light last year with Ojo, Brown, Hayes and McCrorie picking up loads of minutes in defence 1 Link to comment

Tord31 Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 So if Goodwin wants 22 and 2 for every position in a 4231... GK - Lewis and Roos RB - Richardson and McCrorie (allows an extra CM) RCB - Stewart and Milne LCB - Scales and vacancy LB - Mackenzie and Coulson CM (2) - Barron, Ramadani, Polvara and vacancy Behind Striker (3) - Besuijen, Kennedy, Hayes, Duncan, Roberts, Lopes Striker - Miovski and Ramirez to be loaned out - Hancock and Ngwenya to be binned - Bates, Watkins and McLennan Link to comment

A player that makes the same basic errors every week and cannot keep his hands off the opposition doesn't equate to a "a player in there" in my books. Wish him well but I'd grab the money and run.

CCB III Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 Good business for everyone. Big club and a good move for him. As usual the utter fuds on Twitter who've never kicked a football in a straight line are sticking the knife in the geezer. Some things just don't work. The toxicity isn't required. He's leaving, it didn't work, that's that. "haha he's shite" every time a player leaves is fucking boring. 7 Link to comment

Torry Tosser Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 Lots of players have gone to clubs and it hasn't worked out,and many times certain managers don't fancy certain players,that's the way it is. Bates confidence must be low when a manager turns his back on him in training. He's definitely not shite,or he wouldn't have been at Hamburg,and Legia are decent sized club as well. Good luck to him. 1 Link to comment
aberdeen1970 Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 Aye, good luck to him. I felt sorry for him most of the time he was here as his confidence looked shot Just Watkins and Ramirez left from last summer's rebuild and they aren't exactly in Goodwin's plans. We'll soon be able to pretend it never happened 1 Link to comment
