Watching the interview on RedTV and it literally was a call from Warnock the day before he turned up that got him here. So very much a reaction to what he's seen. Bit of a hail mary getting a 33 year old out of a club in but hey fingers crossed. Hope he can do a job.

Could be a goalie and/or defender next week.

@minijc will know?

Yeah which is embarrassing actually when you think about it.

And it shows how it has been killed by those running it. Corrupt cunts.

I think the MLS is really underrated.

Their lowest average attendance last year was still over 12k+ for the new Inter Miami team, highest Atlanta Utd with 45k+. 

Went to the LA Galaxy Portland game last year when I was visiting and was expecting it to be shite.

Pre match entertainment for kids, food/beer stands everywhere, beer marquees outside the ground. Must admit I expected the atmosphere to be lame with their US chants but it was as good as a British game. Had about 25k too.

They’ve had some decent players. Robson was there a couple clubs before he came here. Think Ryan Gauld is doing well there as well, no way we’d be able to take him off their hands. 
 

MLS is odd. As if USA isn’t big enough they stick Canadian teams in it too. Must be some away days. Vancouver away to Inter Miami travelling on a Gothenburg Reds bus.

I don’t know why there has always been this desperation to get the yanks into football. If they really got into it they would be completely insufferable and arrogant about it!

with their infrastructure, finances and population they would probably dominate if they took to it like they do their own silly games

I loved him in his first stint but Shinnie is finished. He’s often a liability in the centre of the park now, unfortunately.

Yeah Gauld is doing really well there but remember how shite he was for Hibs.

Fucking 33 year old winger to sort out this shambles, won't end well, will be slower than a week in jail. We've turned into a freak show with a manager who doesn't give a fuck.

That’s a very good counter argument. 
 

he was so bad I had forgotten about it!

Absolute drivel , he's been playing great recently 

[ERNIE]

Think we are due a bit of luck.Gonna be optimistic since we already have probably the best 2 forwards in Scotland. Junior hopefully makes it all click. .

[Saturday's Kid]

He might turn out to be the 2024 version of Cup-tie McKay.

He was signed in September, 9 games from the end of the season.

Played in 7 of those games.

In MLS as has been pointed oot.

Exactly. So he didn’t manage to get any games in the Canadian league in that time

Thats the spirit, bit of positivity - Neil knows what he is doing (mostly  )

Even if he can make an impact off the bench for 20 mins, thats more than we have right now.

Getting a free kick over first defender would be a start.

[Jazzer08]

Can't see us keeping a clean sheet (although hope that's wrong).

2-2

He played a total of 270 minutes. As you say admittedly MLS but over 9 games (2 cup) it was an average of 30 minutes a game.

He's played at a good level his whole career so should easily have enough ability. 

Hope he's fit enough to make a real contribution as we need a spark of creativity. 

Good luck min

An assist coming off the bench today. I’m feeling it.

Is that after we are 3-0 down after 25 mins? 🤣

This isn't going to end well. It may start well but it won't end well.

More red flags about this signing this morning, particularly from what my source is telling me.
