wellfan Posted May 31, 2024 Report Share Posted May 31, 2024 Nicholson was always going to be an easy signing for Kettlewell, and a 2-year deal seems reasonable as he did more good than shite during his short-term deal. Kettlewell still needs to replace Spittal's goals and assists, as I don't see that type of player in Nicholson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grizzlyg Posted May 31, 2024 Report Share Posted May 31, 2024 Happy with Nicholson also. With a full pre season then I think will be a good asset next season. For those not happy can I ask who do you want us to sign because as far as I can see every player we sign is written off?. We all remember the outrage when Bair signed and that hasn't turned out too bad. Give the lads a chance 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wellsince75 Posted May 31, 2024 Report Share Posted May 31, 2024 At 29 he shouldn't be passed it. I'm more enthused about him staying than I am re Halliday. He has shown some very decent skill and has had an impact on several games BUT it''s been limited and often been anonymous in many games. Is he good enough to replace Spittal ? Time will tell but we should remember the 'aw naw brigade' when we first signed Spittal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Halliday has struggled, we can all see that but I don't think Nicholson has been that bad. Wasn't fit enough initially but give him a pre season and I think will be good. I think SOD is still worth keeping. Maybe not a first team start but definitely squad member 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Other than a few moments against Livi he did nothing. The 3-3 game at Pittodrie, the home game against Celtic and the last two games he was utterly hopeless. He's no pace and a history of knee injuries. He was overweight when he joined as well so you can't even say he's a good pro. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevie73 Posted May 31, 2024 Report Share Posted May 31, 2024 I’ll go then, need a goalie, Ross Laidlaw Ross County, had a couple of mistakes against us but pretty solid, a strong commanding CB Alex Lacovitti, playing now at Port Vale played under the manager before, the boy Phillips at St Johnstone kicks everything that moves. A fit Van Veen 😂, two full backs maybe Gent 🤷🏻♂️, I’d take Montgomery for a season only worry is the boy is quite injury prone and a decent winger with lots of pace. That will do to start.
