manc_don Posted June 27, 2016 Author Report Posted June 27, 2016 Certainly sounds like he fits the bill. Fingers crossed he performs as well as the rest of the irish contingent at the club! Welcome aboard Quote
BigAl Posted June 27, 2016 Report Posted June 27, 2016 A Stokes has signed up to the cause. Welcome on board Quote

BigAl Posted June 29, 2016 Report Posted June 29, 2016 Not strictly AFC now but Goodwillie looks off to Plymouth Argyle. Really not much lower his career can sink now. What a waste of a talent. Quote
baggy89 Posted June 30, 2016 Report Posted June 30, 2016 Had a text of a Plymuff mate earlier asking my opinion. Told him I'm delighted as means Cheltenham have an even better chance of back to back promotions if their frontline is going to be Goodwillie and Reid. Dan Holman will score at least 3 times as many as that two together. Quote
Reidzer 1314 Posted July 4, 2016 Report Posted July 4, 2016 Seems Khalid Aucho has been released by his club to come to Scotland for his trial. Be interesting to see where this lad end up. Quote

I noticed something on twitter over the weekend about wishing him good luck. Is that what that was about? Very interesting! Quote
Reidzer 1314 Posted July 4, 2016 Report Posted July 4, 2016 Yeah it seems he had negotiated his release from his club in Kenya. They seem to think he is headed to us on trial, so hopefully we hear something this week about it. Quote

In other news, Super Kev is joining up with Caley for a trial. Never wanted to see him at another Scottish club Quote

manc_don Posted July 6, 2016 Author Report Posted July 6, 2016 Greg Stewart admits he may have to leave Dundee to further his career. Yes, it lies further north! Would be very pleased if this happened. Quote
Reidzer 1314 Posted July 7, 2016 Report Posted July 7, 2016 It may just be wishful thinking but I can see us making the move Greg Stewart. Quote
wi_09 Posted July 7, 2016 Report Posted July 7, 2016 I would like to see us sign Stewart too but unfortunately I don't think he will end up with us. If he is to leave Dundee then I have heard the Jambos are more likely to get him than us. I was surprised at that as I wouldn't have thought they could afford the sort of transfer fee for which would Dundee would let him go. Quote

I was surprised at that as I wouldn't have thought they could afford the sort of transfer fee for which would Dundee would let him go. Would be surprised if Dundee would sell to another Scottish club. Cannot see any Scottish team being able to afford to offer a deal that would make it worth while for them to sell. Quote
tlg1903 Posted July 7, 2016 Report Posted July 7, 2016 The only way we could afford stuart would be if we made a big sale. Quote
manc_don Posted July 11, 2016 Author Report Posted July 11, 2016 Aberdeen midfielder Peter Pawlett may be allowed to move on loan to Championship side Hibernian. (Sun) I wouldn't be against this at all. I've found his contributions at a bare minimum (bar that goal last season). It's a massive shame but he's just not living up to his earlier promise. A loan stint might just get his confidence up again. If he does go though, we need to bring someone else in or we're still not achieving any squad depth. Quote
Reidzer 1314 Posted July 11, 2016 Report Posted July 11, 2016 Yeah I wouldn't mind seeing him leave to be honest. Seen a couple of posts from St Johnstone fans on other forums claiming we have an interest in Murray Davidson. Quote
Reidzer 1314 Posted July 12, 2016 Report Posted July 12, 2016 Willo Flood again being linked with Dundee Utd today. papers claiming he could be a Utd player by the end of this week. Quote
manc_don Posted July 12, 2016 Author Report Posted July 12, 2016 Willo Flood again being linked with Dundee Utd today. papers claiming he could be a Utd player by the end of this week. I know he's not available for the game on Thursday, but I'd suggest while we're in Europe, we keep him. He was one of the better players last week. Quote
Reidzer 1314 Posted July 12, 2016 Report Posted July 12, 2016 Yeah I would imagine we will hang on to him as long as we are in Europe or if we sign a replacement. Quote
manc_don Posted July 13, 2016 Author Report Posted July 13, 2016 AFC caused quite a stir on twitter yesterday when folk didn't hear the full pre-match conference from DM. No transfers incoming just yet, but there are a couple things on the burners. Hope to fuck they're a center half and a proper central midfielder! What position did O'Connor play on the weekend, it was at the back was it not? Quote
Reidzer 1314 Posted July 13, 2016 Report Posted July 13, 2016 I know he came on at the back against Brechin but not sure about the weekend. McInnes is always shrewd on his transfer dealings. He may say nothing is imminent but the wheels will be turning behind the scenes I am sure. Quote
wi_09 Posted July 13, 2016 Report Posted July 13, 2016 What position did O'Connor play on the weekend, it was at the back was it not? He started at CB with Reynolds with Jack on the right & McKenna on the left IIRC. I thought he looked strong but his passing across the park when not under any pressure left a lot to be desired. Hard to judge in friendlies though. Although with shouts like "Win a header" coming from your keeper when the opposing keeper has taken a goal kick and then winning said header this lad could do well. Quote

He certainly said his preferred position was at the back. In other news Cammy Smith joins the Arabs on loan. Surely we must have someone joining imminently as this leaves us short. Quote
