The.Moog Posted Wednesday at 17:38 Report Posted Wednesday at 17:38 (edited) I don’t actually recall us trying to replace either of them properly for years. Certainly for goalie it was usually stop gaps and injury cover (and yes they were horrible in the main). Instead we took the easy option of new contracts and stuck with the status quo as making up the numbers was good enough for Milne. But hey, as the late queen once said, recollections may differ. I agree with your last paragraph which also describes Gogic perfectly, a guy who’s been a far better performer in this league than Olusanya will ever be. More Gogic types to steady the ship please, and way less Olusanya’s… Edited Wednesday at 17:41 by The.Moog 2 Quote

TheDonbytheDee Posted 19 hours ago Report Posted 19 hours ago (edited) A fair few rumours around that Mitov will be off this summer. Hope it is just shyte, as I like our cup final hero and our keeper signings have been sketchy,at best, over the past 30 years. Edited 19 hours ago by TheDonbytheDee 1 Quote
The.Moog Posted 12 hours ago Report Posted 12 hours ago (edited) I wouldn’t chase him out the door, but he’s been another one who’s been a bit of a disappointment overall. Not the worst signing by any stretch, but not a resounding success either. He wouldn’t be on my list of “must keeps”, though he’s nowhere near the top of my list of “must go’s” either. His big weakness is his kicking, which lets be honest, is horrendous. My mates a saints fan and one thing he said they’ve always had under Robinson is really good keepers. So maybe lets see what he can come up with. Wonder if Gogic can play in goals… Edited 12 hours ago by The.Moog Quote

I'd stick with him, unless he is looking to move, as always get the fear with our keeper signing record and our recruitment team doesn't inspire me with confidence. Folk saying we would get £2 million for him, not a chance we get anything like that. Quote
TheDonbytheDee Posted 9 hours ago Report Posted 9 hours ago Robinson wants Shinnie to stay, but has said he won't be a regular, which is fair. Also seems a little truth in the Mitov rumours. Be another interesting window. Quote

Panda Posted 4 hours ago Report Posted 4 hours ago I'd keep Mitov, who I still think is an excellent goalkeeper, but depending on Suman's progress from his injury it may be worth giving him a chance. Not really convinced by the other fella we signed in January. Shinnie - I said last week I think that it's probably best for him to leave, more for his sake. However, I certainly won't be sad to see him stay, and his versatility off the bench at LWB and midfield, plus his obvious influence in the dressing room, are all good things. The regular nonsense about "his legs are gone" get disproved just as often, and I've no doubt if managed correctly he can still play at a high level next season. Robinson also didn't rule out in his press conference getting Lyall Cameron on a permanent deal, although he didn't sound too confident about it. Quote
OrlandoDon Posted 3 hours ago Report Posted 3 hours ago It’s hard to judge a keeper when your defense is so poor, particularly dealing with crosses, and the keeper makes more poor decisions than normal since he’s forced into doing things he’d not normally do. I’d also say our defense this year has been the worst in quite a long time. Mitov isn’t as good as Lewis, but better than clangers, so could be better could be worse. Not fussed if he stays or goes. Don’t think the new boy was any better or worse, so if we sell mitov we’re at least not stuck with nothing, although I’d certainly expect us to sign a new #1. 1 Quote
