We should be all over Lennon Miller at Motherwell before the ugly sisters are.

That ship will have sailed. Even if it isn’t the Old Firm, he’ll be off somewhere than can pay much more than we can.

Say sike 

[aberdeen1970]

Aye we need to sign them younger and play them younger of we want to attract /keep them post brexit. 

 

I think we'll see more young Scottish players getting games at our clubs over the next few years which isn't a bad thing.

Said it before he’s never the keeper he was at Dundee Utd if he’s behind Scott Bain in the pecking order there.

Imagine clamouring to sign Scott Bain’s backup ffs

Lazy recruitment if we are just homing in on Siegrist tbh. Must be plenty other keepers out there as good or better than Siegrist.

I can guarantee it won't be the 'old firm'

Explain how this is regarded as "lazy recruitment"?

Surely lazy recruitment is paying massive fees for cunts no one has ever heard of before?

500k for Gueye, 300k for Richardson & 400k for Morris is what I would class as lazy recruitment over someone who's played in our league for another team..

Danny Ward was third choice behind Bogdan at Liverpool ( who was absolutely shite)

I would take Sigriest, from what I recall he had a presence about him and wasn't afraid to come off his line and deal with balls into the box.

Have you just arrived in Scotland from Timbuktu?

Half of the EPL are looking at him. 
Maybe 2 years ago but to be honest the boy has done the right thing and stuck at a team where he plays every week.

[Glass half full]

Seigrist sounds a bit too big a gamble. No regular football for a few years now.

Ward is a serial back up! He was livid when scmichael left Leicester and he had to earn a living

Danny Ward was like 21 / 22 when he was here?

Seigrist is 32 and hasn't played in a competitive game of football for about 3 years.

If that’s their target for a goalkeeper at 32 yrs old,  hasn’t played for 3 yrs .    Can you imagine the manager they are looking at, the one we have now is here for a million pound paid vacation, and does he really give a shit what kind of state AFC is in.   Cormack and his cronies need jailed. 

[Ten Caat]

Siegrist signed for the Tims in late June 2022. So actually about 20 months with almost no top team action (he has played in a couple of League Cup ties for them)

Couldn't afford him.

[Ernie McCracken]

I wonder if the summer 2024 transfer window will finally be the year when people who simply point out the club are making an arse of it are no longer  called out as pant pishers? Or is convincing one's self that blindly supporting and defending the clubs failing approach to squad building somehow equals rational intelligence, still too strong a lure?

 

 

[Who gives a Duk]

I seriously hope some of better players, miovski for example, do not have some sort of relegation release clause or we are even more fucked.

Well a lot of them already look like they don't give a toss if we are relegated judging by their performances for most of the season

[Who gives a Duk]

Agreed. More thinking we’ll get fuck all for Miovski if we go down and we are really banking on a big fee for him to rebuild the team. Not that I trust the FMB to get the recruitment remotely right! 

[RabidGiraffe]

If we get relegated we are proper fucked for a recruitment strategy because first we need to build a team that can get us promoted at the first attempt in a league that plays "mannie's fitba", and then cycle out most of those players for ones who can get us back to the top end of the SPL and challenging for euro spots/cups.  It'll set Dave's masterplan back three or four years.

[Who gives a Duk]

Yep. Fucking depressing thought.

Hearts are the example you can bounce back. Others have been relegated and done well on promotion. Let's not throw the towel in yet. This team have shown they can put a shift in like second half v m'well. Just not enough times to be confident though.

playoff vs Utd would be epic tho

Only if we won 

[Ke1t]

I'll be happy if we can sign wide players who beat the first man with their crosses, rather than just knocking every single one off the nearest defending player. 

Oh, and defenders who can, you know, fucking defend. 

Two of each. 

 

[Andy_123]

Doubt we'll manage to make a head start on any potential summer business until we are mathematically safe from relegation

Get the new Manager in then win our next 3 games then we can start thinking about next season

What, we're not allowed to until then?
