dave mc Posted July 7, 2015 Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 It came from a couple of tweets this afternoon. A freelance called Dave Donaldson and then a tweet by Chris Harvey 'confirmed' it. Reading Tommy's interview with Sky though, it's clear that's not what he was saying. That's what I thought too, he's implying he's going to decide who we sign in 5-7 days,don't know enough about McCabe, if he's a driving box to box with a bit of vision, I'd go for him, of the other two I'd lean towards McCallister,can go passed folk better than Liam and quicker I'd say Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBored Posted July 7, 2015 Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 Can't say I've been overly impressed with McAllister when I've seen him and can't help thinking Craig coming back wouldn't work out. Haven't seen or heard anything of McCabe for ages so can't really form an opinion on him. Better to wait for other options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy Posted July 7, 2015 Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 (edited) The options just get worse from here on out, we can't be far away from looking at players like McFadden again. I'd happily see us sign Craig and McAlister just now, both fill positions we need players, both can play at this level, and both would be happy sitting on the bench from the start of games. As much as I like Swanson and really want him back, I dont think we can afford to turn down decent options to wait and see if he becomes available, as it could easily be mid-August by the time Coventry decide, we can't still have gaping holes in the squad by then.

franco Posted July 7, 2015 Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 Macallister turned us down in 2013 under Steve lomas so it's definetly a realistic rumour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benito Kemble Posted July 7, 2015 Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 Is O'halloran being overlooked as a left sided midfielder? I don't understand why a left sided player is urgent, surely a creative centre midfielder is what we're crying out for?! ex-montrosesaintee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Posted July 7, 2015 Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 Is O'halloran being overlooked as a left sided midfielder? I don't understand why a left sided player is urgent, surely a creative centre midfielder is what we're crying out for?! I see what you're saying, but we've effectively lost Croft and Swanson and not replaced either. Tommy started out this summer looking for a striker and two wingers. We've signed 2 defenders and 2 strikers and we now appear to be looking at Central midfielders, so maybe Tommy has changed his mind. Cummins has played wide left for Exeter quite a bit, so it might be the case that Tommy sees him as the wing option, or certainly in the short term.

PauloPerth Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 SB-we dont make any money travelling far in europe SB -we cant sign anyone unless we get through. Aye right then! I imagine the chairman's comments are a bit misleading/ misinterpreted regarding the revenue from European matches. Whilst we have been really unlucky over the 4 years, having to charter flights to Turkey, Minsk, Armenia and possibly Kazakhstan, I expect with the uefa prize money, and large home crowds that we have still made a bit of money each year in Europe, or at the very least broke even. He probably feels we could have done far better financially from it and have not made anywhere near the profit that might have been expected.

St. Paddy Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 Nooooò. A trip to turkey in our first round. A trip to Armenia in our first round. A trip to minsk after beating a better team... The locations of the teams we were randomly drawn against? Bad luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St. Paddy Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 Oh, my very dear.... I am disputing your alegation that we were drawn to play inaccessible teams due to our inability to win games. facts disprove your invalid assertions. Boring old facts, eh? sorry.

Jamie_Beatson Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 Nothing to do with the football on the pitch Andy-we're discussing the financial cost of having to travel to those far flung locales rather than somewhere easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mysaint Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 get used to it,but it happens to be the truth the distance only counts for the fans who travel the team fly to the what ever destination and run on to the pitch to win the game to fly home afterwards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
