Ten Caat Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 I think Stewart + Scales is > Stewart + Mccrorie but not by a massive amount. I'm resigned to taking nothing from the game anyway so if they manage to surprise me (and likely everyone) by keeping Timothy out it'll be an unexpected bonus Link to comment

Don_Corleone Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 I think Scales has been pretty good - I think he might be better alongside someone who isn't Stewart. Link to comment

strachanmcgheegoal Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 Yay. Stand in centre half against the nip and no right back against the George Michael lookie likey. Classic us. Expecting classic Timothy. Link to comment

I personally thought that Mackenzie was brilliant at left centre back today. Quicker and stronger than Scales and won't cost us a penny. Would happily give him an extended run in that position.

The Gee Man Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 Still a waiting game to see if Scales stays for rest of season. I assume he’s only going back if someone bids for him. But you would think you would know by now and pretty poor planning by the club Link to comment

Imagine not telling the fans if we have an alternative lined up before the transfer window is even open, or we are happy to stick with MacKenzie after his brilliant display on Saturday. Scales has regressed, therefore I have no issues if he stays or goes. When you speak to Celtic fans they say his problem was consistency - I would agree. Link to comment

I thought he'd already been confirmed on loan for the season when he initially arrived? I get that folk are pissed off about the tactics on Saturday but this is a non story. 1 Link to comment

Wasn’t about us announcing other signings etc, just find it weird that potentially the guy who has played in the back all season could be away in a few weeks and we don’t know. Would have thought we would have something in place with scales loan to say let us know by early December or he stays sort of thing. Link to comment

Why not the same fuss about them? We'd be equally down to bare bones in their positions too if they left. You're making a big fuss about nothing.

He's well down their pecking order. And if they sell him this window there's not much we can do about it, unless we're buying him ourselves. He's decent but replaceable. Link to comment

Dave Bus Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 What’s the mid season verdict on this guy? Is he good enough? Not even our player so is doing a deal worth looking into? Link to comment
Ten Caat Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 I think he's bang average. There would be plenty of equally bang average central defender available to sign on pre-contracts. Obviously Goodwin rates him though. If his price is £500k as has been speculated, he's not worth it. I'd say he's a £250k player at best 1 Link to comment

King Street Loon Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 He's worth a contract. A good player who has been struggling with confidence of late like the rest of them. Link to comment
