BigAl Posted February 4 Report Posted February 4 It is never too early to get this up and running Window opens on 12 June which is eighteen weeks on Thursday Quote
Jute Posted February 4 Report Posted February 4 Rico is probably having a rage induced fit at this very moment. Obviously needs updated to remove Duk and include Dabbagh. 1 3 Quote
DantheDon Posted February 4 Report Posted February 4 I think we need to see how the new recruits are looking over the next couple of months before we can really say what we need come summer. Only obvious ones are replacements for McGrath and McKenzie. Quote

redordead Posted February 9 Report Posted February 9 Watched the young boy smith playing at QOS yesterday and he was electric for the whole game. Might have been having a great game but he looked levels above div 1. Can play both wings and ten Now before we slate D1 remember last week people were wanting Marshall back from cove. This boy is a mile above anyone we have on loan in that league. Quote

redordead Posted February 9 Report Posted February 9 City 21s suggest there's definitely talent there. Quote

Anyway, you're lad sounds perfect, get him signed. Wasn't he supposed to be the next big thing when at Killie, but went down south and didn't make it? Failed to make it at Partick also. However, he could have given himself a boot up the hole since. Quote
Jute Posted February 9 Report Posted February 9 Another to look at from lower leagues is Max Barrie at Peterhead. Saw him yesterday and looked well above league 2 level. Was with us as a youth player but got released. Not sure if he is our level yet but the sort of player you could take a punt on if we still had reserve team football to develop players over 18. Quote

As an aside Marshall looked good in highlights from yesterday’s game against Livingston. Quote

Aye, my doubts around Marshall are his pace, and obviously he's not physically robust enough yet. Looks like he can play fitba. Quote

After last week's defeat there were quite a few people on FB calling for him to come back and drop shinnie and Nilsen. I pointed out there that fyvie is still easily coves best player and we wouldn't want him in our first team now. Quote

RicoS321 Posted February 16 Report Posted February 16 Thought Josh Mulligan looked good yesterday, and his contract expires in May. Wales again looking excellent for Killie. We should have been offering a wild pre-contract in January, but I expect he'll go down South in the summer. Quote
BigAl Posted February 16 Author Report Posted February 16 I've been thinking about Mulligan as well, would be surprised if as a club we weren't giving him a thought or two. As an aside, although I was depending upon TV coverage to watch, I tried to keep an eye on Cameron to see exactly what we would be missing out on Whilst I should allow for the circumstances and that he might not be putting 100% effort into it, I didn't think he was anything special. Wouldn't be surprised for him to become Barron mark two for the Huns. Quote
Jute Posted February 16 Report Posted February 16 Another name I would chuck in would be Hale from County although we would have to pay a fee there. 12 goals so far this season. Thought Mulligan was good again yesterday and impressed every time I have seen him. Quote

Thought Mulligan was good again yesterday and impressed every time I have seen him. Was chatting with a county supporting pal the other day and he was raving about Hale. Who's Mulligan btw? I've had a lot on my plate the past few months and not really been keeping up with football other than the dons. Edited February 16 by tlg1903 Quote
OrlandoDon Posted February 16 Report Posted February 16 (edited) Are we factoring in what we need or just throwing out potential talent? To be realistic, do these players fill a need in our squad? I think rules for Europe require Scot’s in the squad and that’s a concern. We also have a bloated squad and need to move players on. liam smith - QOS - winger/10 - Scottish - for arguments sake, let’s say we sign okkels, we’d have okkels gueye topi, morris, and vinnie. Space for smith? I’d say yes and punt Vinny. Think we may punt Morris too. josh mulligan - defender/midfielder? Who does he replace in the squad? We have shinnie palaversa sivert polvara, even jack milne and Jensen. Ronan hale - worth a look for sure. We have no forwards. Hoping dabbagh comes good, seems like a similar personality to miovski and a very likeable guy. Hope we punt Ambrose nisbet and sokler and it’s the summer of adding talent at the center forward position. id say we need to target a couple of forwards and a winger. Probably a left back too. Other than that we have a large squad and need to be clearing out a few in the summer. We’ve done a lot the last two windows in bringing in, a few need to go. Also hope we bring in/move up some Scottish dons youth. Edited February 16 by OrlandoDon 1 Quote
Jute Posted Sunday at 16:00 Report Posted Sunday at 16:00 If we make Europe we will need to add more Scots also more depth and numbers to cope with additional games. Agree we do need to move on some the dross but we will need a bigger better quality squad. Quote
BigAl Posted 23 hours ago Author Report Posted 23 hours ago If you believe all you read in the rags, then McCrorie is being lined up for a summer move to Crystal Palace in the summer. Players don't move from the Championship to Premier League for buttons and we hold a sell on percentage, so another shit load of cash potentially coming our way Quote
