RicoS321 Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 Did well in his second spell. If he'd been a new signing without the baggage of his prior stint, we'd have been disappointed to see him go. Good luck to him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wee toon red Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 As things stand we’ve zero strikers, so I don’t any need to panic about signing JET. until we see the rest of the forwards we won’t know if he’s meant to be the best of them or a backup option.

HaarDon Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 Hedges was excellent yesterday. He was taking on players and succeeding. Not afraid but also has the skill to back it up. That move past 5 players was superb. We need him so bad.he's by far our best player. Still dont get why so many people rate Ferguson. That miss was shocking and we wouldnt miss him if we get someone else in to replace him. Doesnt matter now and I'm sure the huns dropped down the gears after 2-0 but 2nd half we were all over them. Some very nice moves by us which is promising. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tup1 Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 Ferguson has been absolutely woeful recently and a large part of the reason why we are so shit. He will be in the huff about McHun getting sacked. He's another hun that needs chased from AFC as soon as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me it’s because we have been here before with Main. When he signed plenty where saying he is just a back up but we then had to play him due to injuries and loss of form. No point in having a back up who is not going to push those in first team and not someone one who you could happy to have playing week in week out if circumstances pushed you that way. If as Livingston are saying a fee is involved then definitely one we should not be touching as far as I am concerned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaarDon Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 At the moment JET would be first team quality for us. He has 100 times more composure than any of our shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donsdaft Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 He looked a’right against us. A real pain in the arse. But I haven’t actually seen him against anyone else, or for that matter ever heard of him before the recent cup game. I’m never that keen on players as big as him but he looked nimble enough.

Ferguson improved in the games since McInnes left, his workrate certainly increased and he was getting in the box far more regularly. In my opinion he was struggling with the extra workload so late in the season and probably the change in training regime. His final ball/shot just seemed to be fairly weak like he was running out of steam (Hayes too). His effort against the Tims was a good example of this after Brown's pass. I think he'll be a much improved player next season with a good preseason in him. I really hope we keep hold of him and he proves himself worthy of a move. I could easily see a team taking an expensive punt on him in the summer, but I don't think he deserves it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are offering £2m now with 3 months of window to go fair chance they will come back in with higher offer before window shuts. Meant to add also confirmed Hoban is not being offered a deal in the article. He proved me wrong by staying fit for most of season and although form has dipped recently I would have offered him another deal. Not convinced those we have coming in are better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He obviously sees something in Robertson. He’s trying to sign him. It’s just no-one else can. At least the physio will be busy, with Robertson being signed & Devlin being re-signed.

RedStarTorphins Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 Selling Ferguson for £2.5m+ is sensible IMO. My concern is we have a rookie manager rebuilding a team & squad, and is doing so with not a huge amount of knowledge of the British market, so are we relying on Russ Richardson, who’s record as Head of Recruitment is patchy at best? Going to be an interesting next few weeks. Fuck knows what team we’ll have on the pitch come the start of the new season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slim Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 I had a look on a Rotherham forum the other day, the consensus seemed to be that Robertson was their best defender when fit. Unfortunately “when fit” happens as often as it does for Mikey Devlin for us seemingly and he has a bit of a reputation for being a hypochondriac/fanny.

Slim Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 If a big fee for Ferguson allows us to offer an enticing contract to Campbell from Motherwell, I’d be happy with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaarDon Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 If we sold Ferguson for £2.5mill would anyone take a chance on Griffiths for a year contract if persuaded? We could be just what he needs to resurrect his career. Or he could still be a dick and fuck us over hmm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
