RandomGuy Posted October 2, 2019 Report Share Posted October 2, 2019 Anderson played plenty in pre-season where we conceded goals for fun, then looked absolutely finished against Ross County. Hes doing well at Raith but hes playing central in a back three, and by all accounts his sole role is just to sweep up and tell folk where to be. That's a luxury you get at part time level, that role doesnt exist in the top flight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Real Saints Posted October 2, 2019 Report Share Posted October 2, 2019 Bemusing that some people would turn their noses up at Efe Ambrose. He would be fantastic for us and there's consequently no chance we'd be able to get him. Hibs fans loved him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ambrose would be a huge earner, and has a reputation for being an absolute clownshoes defender. The fact hes still a free agent with the CV he has should be a massive red flag. sixties saintee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That reputation emerged during his time at Celtic. I think it's widely acknowledged that he was generally excellent at Hibs. But as you say, he'd be a huge earner. We couldn't get near his wages and his expected income probably wouldn't match his ability.

I think if there is an injury to Liam G then Ambrose would be a shout for a short term contract until January. Slightly different topic but surprised to see that saints are back using Stirling Uni for training twice a week as I though we had a quality training area in perth now. Were not there the last time I was in the gym during the morning but appeared yesterday.. If Liam Gordon did get injured must have been later when they were out on the training pitch as he was okay first thing. Interesting that folk seem to have written off the Latvian boy, have to say he looked pretty fit and raring to go. Up and about and in the gym before players had event arrived for training.

Linky Posted October 5, 2019 Report Share Posted October 5, 2019 I'd rather us be looking to tempt Aaron Hughes or Gareth McAuley out of retirement for one last season that look to sign Ambrose. I think an older, hugely experienced defender would be a great addition. Northern Ireland link with Tommy perhaps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tucker Posted October 5, 2019 Report Share Posted October 5, 2019 Time to get an experienced centre half, during the international break,as Robert Thomson has just quoted went from going for Declan Gallagher to going to a guy who's never played a game in his life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave mc Posted October 5, 2019 Report Share Posted October 5, 2019 Duffy was more than decent today,Jason had one brain fart moment,but was ok mostly,we need a better footballer than Muzz in midfield imo,hoping Holt is that man Dave Ferg 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akuram Posted October 6, 2019 Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 How can Livi recruit Dykes from Queen of the South who is scoring goals when we can't. Do we not scout games? Do they pay more? He seems exactly what we needed. HOODLUM65 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In retrospect it looks like a missed opportunity, but its harsh to blame the club for not paying a fee for him almost a year ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linky Posted October 6, 2019 Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 Vihmann looked so badly off pace today even for the few minutes he played, I’m beginning to wonder what the manager ever saw in him.

andy rhodes fancy watch Posted October 7, 2019 Report Share Posted October 7, 2019 He looked very very scared whenever the ball came near him. I've seen 13 year olds with far more composure, that's surely a confidence thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did it really matter what the laddie did on Saturday many had already made their minds up before he even cam eon that he was shite. Think he only made one error when he came on when he headered the ball instead of taking it down but overall he managed to get up to the pace of the match pretty well. Certainly not easy comeing on in that position for the last 10 mins of a game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a young new player settling in you would expect him to have his raw moments. We all want him to do well, it's up to him to actually do that though. The time you're on about you could actually see the fear in his eyes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
