wellowell Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 O’Halloran chat quiet as he’s still not agreed pay off deal with Rangers so nothing can happen till that’s agreed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmcalpin Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 Surprised by the Murray rumour. Yes, he's pacy but thats about all. I guess if he's played for Hibs that worth a few thousand in itself. Hopefully this is going nowhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd personally take him rather than Ciftci to provide a bit of pace. It certainly has gone quiet as I got told it was more or less a done deal, obviously on holday and waiting to sign on his return!!! personally I think he would be terrific signing if true, As for Ciftci I just don't get it as he played one good game for us against a very poor Hamilton team and everyone thinks he will be the answer to our season, what he will do IF he signs will to increase our wage bill 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gee Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 Think we’ll be looking for a striker with pace to exploit the space left playing with wing backs, Simon Murray makes sense I guess but would rather O’Halloran. Dont expect us to sign another keeper with the guy coming back from Airdrie so expect Gillespie will be our number 1 when Carson moves on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEWELL Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 Yes I'm expecting Carson to be leaving soon. I hope we get Murray he's fast and works hard. Ohalloran will do as well. Hope we're looking to sign a couple of midfielders and a left back. Cifti? No thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we'd need to move a couple on before we'd look at signing another couple of midfielders . Will Bigirimana move on? Grimshaw and Rose have just signed new deals. Will we get a decent bid for Campbell? We also have Turnbull coming through. Irrespective of whether you think we have the right balance in midfield (I don't), difficult to see us bringing in two more bodies there...

gdalli10 Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 Ciftci aye, Murray no. I’d maybe consider Murray if he was free but there’s not a chance I’d pay a fee for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capt_oats Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 £50k for a player with zero discernible footballing ability whose only redeeming attribute is that he runs about a lot? Not for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Wispy Flossy Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 Murray is a lower league player. I’m unconvinced by ciftci but it is was a straight choice between them it would be ciftci all day long Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daver Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 I've sometimes thought Murray looks quite threatening but he appears to have little finishing ability and missed several astounding sitters last season. Not what we need. O'Halloran offers pace and has some finishing ability as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one m in motherwell Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 Signing number two arrives... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lukemfc1 Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 Honestly think Murray would be a decent signing, always looks dangerous running in behind at pace. Think he has a bit better ability than some are making out. I'm a Bowman fan but if you compare the two do we really think he is much better than Murray technically? I agree that we shouldn't be spending alot of money on anyone though. I'm not totally against Nadir coming back if it's on a low wage but there seems to be a lot of fans wearing rose coloured glasses with him. He was shite in a lot of games last season. Yes he got a few goals but he was still often lazy and unfit. There is potential there but let's not pretend he was some sort of revelation, he wasn't.

MearnsWell Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 Liam Donnelly, 22yo NI international defender from Hartlepool. Interesting. Cover for Cedric being sold, and regrettably would appear to kybosh return of Aldred? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lukemfc1 Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 Interesting signing, didn't think we needed a right side defender. Perhaps Aldred isnt coming back or Hartley's away? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilwell86 Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 Wouldn't look into this signing too much, certainly doesn't mean Hartley is away, would say that we won't be seeing Aldred back however. I think last season showed how important having 4 quality centre backs is and I expect this is to fulfil that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scoojy Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 Holy crap! Quality reporting from HITC, whatever that stands for, regarding Ciftci Quote It is understood that Motherwell, who will be keen to find a replacement for Louis Moult after the top scorer departed in January for Preston North End, would be interested in re-signing a player who spent time on loan at Firhill towards the end of last season.

siebsbarmyarmy Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 Guy can play centre half, right back, left back and also defensive midfield seemingly. Hartlepool fans seem upset to lose him which is a good sign. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuwell Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 Looks a good signing who should improve the quality of our squad. Only 22 years old and an internationalist, so hopefully will still develop more and be a sellable asset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milo Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 I’m not demanding we sign an unrealistic level of player but a bit disappointing/worrying we feel Simon Murray is a player we want, and are willing to pay for. I’ve never rated him. Mainly because he’s utter keech! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grizzlyg Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 Some folk seem to think Carson and Kipre away. Well both got 2 yrs left on contract so will only go if proper bids come in. As for Ciftci....nahhhh didn't do enough for me. I think ohalloran would be better signing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeyin Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 Will Rangers not be wanting money for O'Halloran? I'd imagine they'd much rather be selling than lending and he's under contract until about 2020. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
