weeyin Posted May 24, 2021 Report Share Posted May 24, 2021 I like Dunne, as long as he's not trying any Hollywood passes. He's a defence first type of full back that I prefer. I also enjoy watching him give opponents a 10 yard start and then strolling up beside them with a "not this time, mate". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ll have a list of our new academy graduates soon (our biggest intake in years) and some new faces in the squad too.

C&A not the shop Posted May 24, 2021 Report Share Posted May 24, 2021 I imagine he's been invited to pre season training to see how he's holding up. Continuing our arrangement of not casting injured players adrift. As for young players, thats just the nature of the game. I thought Hussein might have stayed on based on previous hype but evidently not. From our youth cup winning squad how many have went on to play at a decent level? Cadden, Turnbull, Campbell and Hastie. Even a cup winning youth squad is going to be mostly made up of players that don't make it in the game.

Kat Posted May 24, 2021 Report Share Posted May 24, 2021 I really like Dunne, if he could maintain his fitness and remain injury free he would be a great asset. That's the main concern though as he never played last season, I think he played 6 or 7 the year before and had some issues in the first half of the 18/19 season so he probably made around 30 appearances in the last three years I would imagine.

Goggles & Flippers Posted May 24, 2021 Report Share Posted May 24, 2021 Some absolute dross being released, no tears shed here. Many should feel fortunate to have picked up a paycheck playing the game rather than putting a shift in any other job. Thought Foley may have got an invite but can only assume (and hope) that targets are identified with the new head of recruitment and from GA's existing knowledge of lower English leagues. However, all this is tempered by the business already announced which is underwhelming and was mostly received with a "aye?" from the majority of our support. Saying that I thought we did astute business last summer and it went to shit soooo ...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over the last 4 years he's been a great guy around the club but played 3 games in 2 seasons. Its one risk that I don't think we need to take. Also with Lammie, McGinely, Carrol who are all left footed its not a position we need more players (none of them are world beaters) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
middleeastdave Posted May 24, 2021 Report Share Posted May 24, 2021 Have to say probably needed, out of the loanees I would love to see Robert’s and Kelly back although I believe QPR have let one of their goalkeepers go to Middlesbrough so maybe Kelly might step up? I also suspect Hastie might be back for another season on loan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJC Posted May 24, 2021 Report Share Posted May 24, 2021 Killie down, perhaps Lafferty will be looking to stay in the top flight right enough? On a side note it will be strange not having Kilmarnock in the top flight next season. They've not been in the top league quite as long as us but with them being a similar sized club you always kind of took for granted that they'd be there.

Still naw. 14 different clubs in 16 years suggests he's not exactly making a positive impression with his employers. Unless, of course, the teams are so overawed by his talent they don't feel worthy and move him on to avoid embarrassing themselves. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Clubs should now vote out those plastic pitches in top Division. That result now has 11-1 playing on grass. So if they vote along those lines, job done. If Dundee get their vote delivered on time that is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see us signing him as I suspect we'd struggle to meet his wage demands, but he's definitely a player that would be worth taking a gamble on if it was possible. We've been needing a goalscorer since Moult left almost four years ago now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next year will tell if Kilmarnock made an error with Tommy Wright , will also tell if Motherwell made the right or wrong choice. Im reassured by the fact most of whom I wanted punted appear to getting punted but its a huge close season for GA to get his team up and running.mm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
