Johnny B Posted June 8, 2022 Report Share Posted June 8, 2022 I do not think we were ever going tpo sign 2 new keepers and he did have to sign one ASAP Parish was an obvious option as back up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stumpy1949 Posted June 8, 2022 Report Share Posted June 8, 2022 Hopefully this means Ross is going out on loan as this is what he needs at this time in his career. For whatever reason he did not play much football last season and that can’t happen again so sitting on the bench as No 2 won’t help him.

Was mentioned earlier that they want a Championship loan move for him. Believe he needed wrist surgery last season whxib stopped that happening.

Rob Posted June 8, 2022 Report Share Posted June 8, 2022 Amazing how Charles-Cook was joint top scorer in the Premiership last season with 13. Astonishing no one scored more than that. How many was it Hendry scored in half a season, 8 plus 1 in the playoff, if we had him all season he might have been top scorer in the league. Shame we won't be able to afford to sign him again as his stats show we had one of the most clinical strikers in the league.

They are looking at signing a new first choice keeper he is a back up maybe second or even third choice. Are you being serious??? You do realise even as a back up there’s a good chance he’ll need to play at some point. The fact we don’t have a number one makes this decision even more worrying.

Hopefully if they send him out on loan they will hopefully have a recall option as Parrish and Lawlor as our keepers we are doomed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially after all the rubbish he brought in last season. Not sure Tommy ever had to overhaul the team to this extent in one window. But then he didn't have the absolute disaster windows that Davidson has had, and certainly wouldn't have handed long contracts to the likes of Crawford and McPherson. We absolutely need at least 4 very good signings if we are to improve on last season. At least 4! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I understand it, the loan system would allow us to recall him in January. Not sure about the emergency rules for goalkeepers though.

Cagey Posted June 9, 2022 Report Share Posted June 9, 2022 It betters believe that this guy has been given a contract extension. I can only assume Saints are hoping to sign a number 1 and Parish is a cheap option and quite happy happy to sit on the bench. Let's hope like **** we can pick up a decent number 1. Not looking promising so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am in complete agreement with you! should never have been considered to be resigned, If McGregor resigns for rangers then we could have gone for McCrorie on loan and our own youngster as back up, both fighting for the position, Not a back up who wanted to leave but we manage to persuade to sign a new contract!

Classic Davidson signing really - a player who is not good enough for the first team of a club that's worse that us. McGhee seemingly was not enough of a fan to actually play him in the first team very often. If this is our first signing it's going to be a long transfer window.

Correct me if I'm wrong but Lawlor is contracted to Scumdee until July 2023, therefore we would be paying for him. Oh dear this really isnt looking good.

It looks like we're paying a fee for Dundee's second choice 'keeper as a replacement for our Scotland International. Looking forward to when we sign Charlie Adam as our new centre midfielder because McGhee thought he was ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graeme S Posted June 9, 2022 Report Share Posted June 9, 2022 I said a bit back that the first signing of this window would be pivotal and show the club's intentions for the coming season. IF Lawlor is the first signing, (and a Scumdee mate tells me he's honking), it's very disappointing. Add to that, I see that Chris Hamilton (YPOTY at Arbroath last season as a defensive/holding midfielder) has just put pen to paper on a three year deal at Dunfermline. The player himself said he'd had interest from Saints - hopefully not one of CD's "4 or 5 signings ready to go straight into the first team". Seems we've been slow off the mark again for whatever reason, the only sure thing is that absolutely none of it will be CD's fault. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We paid fees for Cammy MacPherson and Ali Crawford in January, when we could've signed both to PCAs and got them for nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
