Hoofball Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 6 minutes ago, davierobb said: You can script this can't you ? We have become Hearts of a few seasons back. New manager , underachieving squad , massive clear out , massive number of new players come in . Results don't match expectations . Board ask for patience. Results don't improve . Board sack manger, new manger comes in and says squad is totally imbalanced. An averagely competent manger would have that squad comfortably top six. We are 24 points behind a competent Hearts team. If we have a massive clear out and massive influx we will be in the same place this time next year. The Board need to provide an update on new managers search before the cup game . There are a lot of people at AFC letting the supporters down very badly. That won’t happen, the board will hide behind this review or whatever it’s being called. There is be silence until it’s season ticket renewal and then they will leak rumours on who the next manager will be in the hope folk will renew. Link to comment

Medw1311 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Yes Devlin has cost us a couple of goals this season but I seem to remember a couple of goal line clearances that saved us losing goals, sure there was actually one today. Least of our problems. Link to comment
Rico1903 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 4 goals and 7 assists. Fair play to the lad. Link to comment
Daisy1903 Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 He's alright. Nothing more really. Probably given us what we expected. Decent player to have in your team if you've got 7 or 8 players round about him that are better. He shouldn't be one of our best players and unfortunately he probably has been. Link to comment
HaarDon Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 Devlin is excellent and reads the game very well. Link to comment
a don in oz Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 Ok I no doubt going to get slaughtered here but... is it just me or has Devlin looked off form since Warnock came in? He was one of the rare positives in the season for me until then. I expected nothing from him when he came in (knew next to nothing about him but where he was from) but he looked solid defensively and a good attacking threat down the wing. Since Warnock has come in it just feels like he's been wobbly defensively and not as potent attacking (yes he scored today but did he actually create much otherwise attacking?) Dunno. I'm just wondering if the Warnock mind games have backfired on Devlin. If so we can't afford to wait for him to get his head together and Milne - another surprise for me - should be played there imo. 1 Link to comment

Schapenneuker Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 Yes, he's had a few clangers. But his commitment and effort this season in a clusterfuck of a defence has been excellent. He also adds goals and assists, as pointed out. We have a million problems defensively, but Devlin is pretty much the least of them. 1 Link to comment
Ten Caat Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 His fuck up for Hibs' second goal was embarrassing. But he's been consistently decent all season, if we had a back up maybe he could do with being rested for a game or two........but we don't. As others have said, he's pretty much the least of our worries. Link to comment
jamiesd Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 Not his best yesterday but he has a heart and some fight about him. Link to comment

It's more concerning that a free transfer signing from Livingston has done a lot better than the players we forked out money for. Our recruitment has been woeful. Devlin is one of the few who gets passmarks for this season. Yes it was a poor error yesterday but we have much bigger problems than Devlin. Link to comment
King Street Loon Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 The fuck was he doing for Hibs second yesterday. Fucking hell, it looked bad in person, but even worse on TV. He also got away with conceding a penalty as well. That aside he's been a very solid signing and is generally reliable. I'm sure he knows he's fucked up and will look to redeem himself.

I think he doesn’t trust the keeper so hoped it would go out instead of having to defend a corner. Link to comment

1903Fitba Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 Devlin FGS next week. You heard it here first. Link to comment
aberdeen1970 Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 He thought it would go out and he misjudged it. Should have just headed it behind. He got punished for it. Link to comment
Millertime Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 What a real loser "Flattering to deceive" at the beginning of the season, extraordinaire Every bit the journeyman Like Jamie mcquilken but a little bit faster Link to comment
starryfish Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 I don’t think he’s properly fit just now Link to comment

Lol I agree he’s vastly inferior to McRorie, I just feel he’s not as energetic as he was in the early part of the season. He’s maybe one of the players who’s taking injections to get through matches just now Link to comment

Willo flood Posted March 13 Author Share Posted March 13 Good to see the club doing so much work in the summer preparing for the European schedule paid off then Link to comment
sooth_stander Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Should have played Jack Milne then, if Devlin is goosed. Seeing him trying to sprint past their winger tonight was embarrassing. He’s just a poor footballer Link to comment
RUL Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 The one he kicked out of play then blamed McGrath for was particularly bizarre. Link to comment
