Big Wispy Flossy Posted February 6, 2016 Report Share Posted February 6, 2016 Is there any evidence of this magic crowd increase happening previously? As Lobey said, I think people are getting bored of this. From a playing side, it'll be as pointless as the David Clarkson singing. Bang on the money! He doesn't increase crowds. Signing him would be as much a waste of money as the Clarkson or Robinson signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaka Posted February 6, 2016 Report Share Posted February 6, 2016 What happened to these deals that were nearly done on deadline day?! Know it was probably free agents, but we have had all week to get a new face in, yet nothing has developed! maybe, just like the "big name that got away" it was just bullshit and we cant afford to sign anyone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy_P Posted February 6, 2016 Report Share Posted February 6, 2016 Whilst I don't believe there would be any jump in attendance whatsoever because of it I would still happily welcome Faddy back once more. The situation is someway removed from the summer of 2014 where we were kept waiting and waiting all summer and it got to the stage he was chasing his tail trying to gain match sharpness and it took six months to get there. Now it's very a much a case of if he signs, given its been publicly stated on several occasions he's on buttons and is contributing behind the scenes then great! If he doesn't well its not like a regular first team starter has been pulled from underneath us, so we move on with no great loss. I'd contest that if his attempted lob over the Ross County keeper been an inch or so higher and he'd subsequently popped it in the empty net to equalise there wouldn't be as much chat about it being "pointless" or a "waste of money". And whilst in no way comparing the respective abilities and talents of the two it also makes me smile that in the last few days there has been some vociferous defending of Vigurs who often stood accused of not bothering his arse, yet here we have someone who repeatedly voices his affinity for the club and gives it his best no matter how off the pace he might be, being summarily dismissed. Funny old world. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yassin Posted February 6, 2016 Report Share Posted February 6, 2016 Vigurs is a much better player than Mcfadden though, and has been for about 5 years now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ML1 Posted February 6, 2016 Report Share Posted February 6, 2016 Are you fishing Not sure if he is or not but a poor SPFL is the level they are both at , Vigurs it seems can still get a starting slot for someone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love Mcfadden but he's completely past it imo, bar a few occasional flashes in 2013/14. I'd be delighted to be proved wrong, but Vigurs contributed much much more when they were both in the same team.

He's a good player for us but no club who has the money to pay a six figure transfer fee is going to be interested in paying for a guy who contorts himself any time the ball goes near his left foot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... weeyin Posted February 6, 2016 Report Share Posted February 6, 2016 Anyone who thinks Louis Moult is going to bring a big transfer fee needs to readjust their expectations.

I remember your thoughts on Higdon, too. Not a fan of the big man before his record breaking season. Moult is a young striker who has had 6 months at a struggling club. His tally isn't too bad, considering. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... steelboy Posted February 6, 2016 Report Share Posted February 6, 2016 I like Moult but he isn't young he's 24. He's got a lot of good things about his game so he's probably dropped to Conference level because he's one sided. The only teams spending money on transfer fees are the EPL teams and teams who want in the EPL, they'll never go for Moult.

He's 23. And strikers typically hit their around 28/29 (or in Higdon's case with us 29/30) so he's about 5 years from peak performance. Arsene Wenger reckons any player who changes leagues takes a minimum of 6 months to adjust, so I still have confidence we will see more from Moult over the next 12 months. Regardless, he blew your notion of none of our strikers scoring 5 goals this season out the water pretty quickly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
