Calderwood dross.

Good news though, hope he keeps up his form this season.

Did it say how long?

 

Think he's improved a lot this season so hopefully he keeps on improving.

 

Agreed, he's stepped up to the plate this season. I thought he was much improved last season. 

It's not just Barca and Chelsea signing up their current stars and planning for the future.

 

Nice one Ricardo. He'll not be expensive and he's been one of the most consistent this season.

 

Good work AFC. That should get the rest of our superstars thinking about committing too.

 

We'll guarantee top six every year at this rate.

Meh sums it up for me.

Patersons dross.

Been as good as anyone this and a lot of last season.

 

Good to have about the place it seems. 

Average player at best and a sad indication of where we are as a club when we are reduced to keeping players of his limited ability.

I think he's doing alright for a player who, as you say, is definitely of limited footballing ability but does have genuine pace, an asset. A player I would have not given a shiny shite about leaving in the not too distant past but has definitely upped his game this past season and a half and I am, on balance, pleased about him staying.

 

Aye. Been very unimpressed with Foster the past few seasons but think he's grown up this season. He's been one of very few consistent performers which is exactly what is needed when largely the same group of players are being asked to adapt to a new regime.

Foster could very well be a future captain of AFC and never thought I'd say that until recently

Local lad, maturing, establishing himself in the team. If he continues to improve why not? He is as stupid as dirt though.

Strong opinion to have. Source/experience from which your opinion originates?

I had formed an admittedly fairly uninformed opinion of the lad simply by watching him play fitba. Then was told of some remarkably thick headed behaviour whilst at school by a few of his contemporaries. True, he may have, much like his fitba, improved from there but I'll stick wi daft.

Hadn't heard that one, can you remember any details?

The intelligence level of dirt is unanalyzable due to its lack of sentience. The comparison is therefore purely figurative and requires no source or experience.

I think this thread demonstrates the 'experience' that Foster is as excellent and terrific as dirt...which again, is a qualitatively unanalyzable term when describing dirt.

Two foul throws in the same match.

It involves detention and shoes. All I'm saying on the matter. I remember the pre-season friendly in Elgin afew years back when a few of us were shouting "SHOES" at him at pretty close quarters.

Two foul throws in the same match.

 

 

no wait...I've done that!

There's no chance Foster will be captain of AFC, surely.

He's the 3rd choice so far isn't he?

I suppose it's good news!

Yas!!! The broom cupboard! Means we'll get a whopping great fee for him! :-/

3 and a half year deal!

My opinion on the loon is that he is one of those players, who, under Calderwood would probably never have stoppeddeveloping, however, MM seems to be the man who is used to either getting more out of average/poor players or further developing players and getting them to play to thier strengths.

 

Foster has been fairly solid this season and seems to have screwed the nut, to the point where I can see the above happening if he continues.  It is often the case that defenders dont mature until slightly later than other positions, so a three year deal and we may see the best from the lad.
