Mike180279 Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 (edited) I just screamed out in delight when I read the article on my phone. Dobbie signs for Saints....... Cant say I remember much about him - perhaps Ghostie will fill us in on his Albioin Days. He is Six Foot Plus so Defo fits the target man mould Edited May 31, 2010 by Mike180279 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pavel Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 Not a target man and plays best with a target man alongside him.....which we don't have. Had to get someone in with two srikers leaving. Wait and see signing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john1962 Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 I thought he looked a good player when he was with West Brom so reasonably pleased with this. Hope he gets more than two games before he starts getting a hard time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Real Saints Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 Have seen him many times on television coverage, and have been thoroughly impressed. A very good singing, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint1981 Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 Interesting article about him in his local paper. seems like a player who works hard but has a few confidence issues http://www.penrithlocal.co.uk/why-carlisle-s-scott-dobie-deserves-a-decent-parting-shot-1.708700?referrerPath=home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great reporting... http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/teams/s/st_johnstone/8714567.stm The BBC reporting is a joke, I'm surprised they got this wrong though as they usually just go to the St Johnstone site and copy and paste from there. They also managed to screw up this article: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/teams/s/st_johnstone/8714392.stm Stating that Bolton are playing our pre season fixture list. So even when they copy and paste they screw it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryangordon86 Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 Quite pleased with this signing. Should give us something else up front and while he might not be a target man, he's 6ft 1" so we will have some height in our front line Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave mc Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 I actually thought he looked more of a player than Kevin Kyle when they both came on the Scotland scene,so hope he still is!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
101 Saint Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 Very odd signing. Doesn't fit in terms of Del's targets. He is neither a target man nor a fast winger. Is this a sign that we're getting budget for an extra forward or perhaps a sign that either Dinky or Caff are to be unloaded shortly?

I certainly think one or both of those will be off if they can find a club. Three centre backs, four depending on where Dave plays, have signed new contracts, but neither of those spells only one thing to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Three centre backs, four depending on where Dave plays, have signed new contracts, but neither of those spells only one thing to me. Just seems odd. Del's been told to cut the squad size, I believe that the budget will be less and Del has stated that his targets are a new Deuchar, a new goalie and two wingers. I expect that a left back is also a priority, though Del will never admit this publicly. Well, if he gets a big striker a goalie and two wingers, that remains a big squad. Out: Sheerin, Swankie, McLean, Deuchar, Irvine, Morais and Main In: Adams, Dobie + 4 Yeah, we've lost some loans but there will always be budget for loan signings throughout the year. Perhaps, Peaso and Jacko are part of a six month shoot out? Edited May 31, 2010 by 101 Saint Forgot about Irvine - much like Del did!
