underboyleheating Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 Unless he can also play in centre mid and can tackle like Steve Jennings, then no. I don’t know much about the lad, however, looking at his background online he doesn’t appear to be that kind of player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuwell Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 Moult has had plenty of chances over the last couple of weeks and has missed most of them so if this guy can find the fuckin net then I'd happily sign him 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt_oats Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 Unless we're planning on moving a striker on already, which seems doubtful, then it'd seem an odd move to bring another one in. The decision to loan Moore out made sense as he's going to get more game time at Ayr than he would here and at the moment he'll clearly benefit from playing every week and Clarkson is only getting minutes here and there. Moore would have been lucky to see any first team involvement beyond covering an injury crisis.By all accounts Fletcher is close to being in back in contention so that's back to our complement of 4 forwards playing for 2 places. As others have said if we're bringing anyone in then we could definitely use a specific type of midfielder since we definitely lack a physical, robust ball winning midfielder.

sbcmfc Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 Unless he can also play in centre mid and can tackle like Steve Jennings, then no. A look at Jennings disciplinary record would suggest he did tackle like a centre forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malky79 Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 Moult has had plenty of chances over the last couple of weeks and has missed most of them so if this guy can find the fuckin net then I'd happily sign him The same Moult who has scored in both his last two games. Strikers miss chances, give the lad a bit of time. Only saw him in the flesh a couple of times and I wouldn't put my house on him being the next big thing but he certainly doesn't look like a Casagolda either gie the lad a chance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superward Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 Moult has had plenty of chances over the last couple of weeks and has missed most of them so if this guy can find the fuckin net then I'd happily sign him He has also scored 2 goals in 4 starts. If he carries that ratio on I will be delighted. Kaboom. That's a bit tongue in cheek as I do get what you are saying but point is we do not need anther striker.

Lobey_Dosser Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 In isolation, signing a striker with a bit of pace and pedigree would be an obvious welcome addition. Given that we brought in 4 new strikers however, one involving a transfer fee and another likely to be our highest earner, any further additions upfront would set off a few alarm bells.

underboyleheating Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 Moult has had plenty of chances over the last couple of weeks and has missed most of them so if this guy can find the fuckin net then I'd happily sign him Moult has done more in the last few games than some players do in a full season. He appears to be a hard worker and he has also delivered on the goals front, I think we need to cut him some slack. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superward Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 I like Moult. Tries hard and, like I said above has scored 2 out of 4 starts (+ 27 min sub appearance). Keep near that ratio and he will be a hero! Some folk will always focus on the misses. A group near me at FP still wouldnt give Higdon his dues the season he scored 27 because he missed loads as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only do strikers miss chances, but good strikers don't let misses worry them. I thought Moult's finish at Methil was a strike of a guy wot confidence. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuwell Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 I do like Moult, he's hard working and yes he is scoring but I still believe that given the amount of chances he has had over the last few weeks his return ratio is not the greatest. If we are to avoid another season like the last one then we need our striker to be scoring with more of the chances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superward Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 An odd one for me. So we now have 5 strikers + another out on loan. I wonder if he manager has realised some f the current folk are not going to cut it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milo Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 Why? Perplexed and worried by this. Snap. McDonald, Clarkson, Moult, Fletcher and now this boy?!?! How many strikers do we need?! We need a decent midfielder. Where is the money coming from for this also? I wouldn't be giving Barraclough any more scope to bring anyone else in considering how shoogily the peg his jaiket will be on is!

punk_in_drublic Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 Don't know much about the guy. Hopefully he is good because we need to start scoring some of them chances that keep dropping our way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Wispy Flossy Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 Makes the signing of clarkson totally pointless. 5th choice striker - no chance of shifting him on / no one will want him - we are landed with him for 2 seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orinoco Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 i remember the days when fans lapped up new signings with non one hoot of a care about the clubs finances. None of us know where we are with regards to the wage budget, and i am sure we will sign another midfield player. A real pacy forward is something we did not have, but do now apparently. It's upto the strikers to deliver when they start otherwise they will be dropped. Lets get back to the 235 formation! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siebsbarmyarmy Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 Strange but always good to see a new player at the club. I think maybe Barraclough signed Clarkson on advices of others... if he was signed by him that is... and has now realised he may not actually be good enough.
