manc_don Posted July 18, 2018 Author Report Posted July 18, 2018 Hope the ticket office is braced for the influx of sales on the back of that news Quote
Elgindon Posted July 18, 2018 Report Posted July 18, 2018 Still bouncin' at the Dom Ball news Rooneys got just under 2 years left on his contract.Gotta be more than £50k in it for us surely,as suggested? Quote
donsdaft Posted July 18, 2018 Report Posted July 18, 2018 A loan from fuckin Rotherham, how low can we go? Dominic Ball is an atrocious footballer. Quote
tom_widdows Posted July 18, 2018 Report Posted July 18, 2018 Cos he is the cheap option. Really cannot see him ever becoming our first choice keeper, presume we put an U20 on the bench this season and recall him should Joe get injured. St Boo I'd imagine are covering 100% of his wages in the meantime. If/when Joe leaves we will try to get Danny Ward or Woodman in permanently Odds of that possibly cut today given he is effectively 4th choice at Anfield now....unless Karius is punted Quote
Guest kiriakovisthenewstrachan Posted July 18, 2018 Report Posted July 18, 2018 Liverpool fan at work today said Ward was going to be given a run as 1st choice after Karius made another couple of blunders in their pre-season friendly. Aye. See they've also spent £66m on a goalie for their reserve team Quote
sooth_stander Posted July 18, 2018 Report Posted July 18, 2018 A loan from fuckin Rotherham, how low can we go? Dominic Ball is an atrocious footballer. Who are you looking at AFC signing, old timer? Quote
rocket_scientist Posted July 18, 2018 Report Posted July 18, 2018 Who are you looking at AFC signing, old timer? Your line of questioning is all wrong. Once you gain sufficient experience in life, you will come to understand why. Quote
Jute Posted July 18, 2018 Report Posted July 18, 2018 A loan from fuckin Rotherham, how low can we go? Dominic Ball is an atrocious footballer. This. If he is not good enough to play in third division in England for Rotherham then he is not good enough for Dons. Hell even McInnes played a useless cunt like OConnor ahead of him last season. Shite lazy signing. Edit: Hope to fuck he is nowhere near right back for first 2 games. Quote
manc_don Posted July 18, 2018 Author Report Posted July 18, 2018 Midfield he’s capable, defender he most certainly is not. I hope Dm remembers that. Wasn’t fair on him, the team or us as supporters. Uninspiring signing it may be but wecome back anyway Quote
Dunty Posted July 19, 2018 Report Posted July 19, 2018 Decent back-up, especially if Gleeson not fit for next week, but hopefully that's all he is. If he's playing due to a loan agreement with Rotherham and keeping Lewis Ferguson and Dean Campbell out of the team, then it does us no good. Full-back and a striker still needed. Quote
LA-Don Posted July 19, 2018 Report Posted July 19, 2018 He’s the type of player our squad needs, cheap, and backs up multiple positions. We cannot afford a back up for each position so he serves a purpose. He’s also young and can improve, plus I recall him being decent post split last season. However, and I’m beating a dead horse. We still need to sign 3-4 quality players and if it doesn’t happen and Ball is expected to be more than he is then DM is certainly the one who should get the abuse, not Ball. Quote

Spot on, not balls fault at all Quote
Lencarl Posted July 19, 2018 Report Posted July 19, 2018 Pleased that Ball is back for this season. He walks back into the team as if he was never away, always a good thing. Think this signing from Aberdeen is to appease some of the bed wetting fans before the main deals are done in the next few days. Quote
PompeyDon Posted July 19, 2018 Report Posted July 19, 2018 Adam Rooney off to Salford City????!!!!!!!!!?? Quote
Ten Caat Posted July 19, 2018 Report Posted July 19, 2018 Adam Rooney off to Salford City????!!!!!!!!!?? As long as we have a replacement lined up it really is best all round. Great servant but would not fit into the style DM wants us to play. Quote
ayrshire_don74 Posted July 19, 2018 Report Posted July 19, 2018 what is the style of play ? as i did not see any coherent way of playing last year Quote
Ramperbamper Posted July 19, 2018 Report Posted July 19, 2018 what is the style of play ? as i did not see any coherent way of playing last year Perhaps a reason why Rooney is being moved on... Quote
ayrshire_don74 Posted July 19, 2018 Report Posted July 19, 2018 rooney who started less games than may yet scored more than may... so what was the style of play ? Quote
Ramperbamper Posted July 19, 2018 Report Posted July 19, 2018 rooney who started less games than may yet scored more than may... so what was the style of play ? He's maybe looking for a striker who can do more than tap ins and penalties Quote
ayrshire_don74 Posted July 19, 2018 Report Posted July 19, 2018 may cosgrove should be punted also then Quote
Ten Caat Posted July 19, 2018 Report Posted July 19, 2018 He's maybe looking for a striker who can do more than tap ins and penalties ^^^^^This Quote
ayrshire_don74 Posted July 19, 2018 Report Posted July 19, 2018 ergo cosgrove and may dont fit the bill, they are non scoring strikers Quote
Ten Caat Posted July 19, 2018 Report Posted July 19, 2018 Both can link play and assist others to score. Rooney couldn't.....ergo he's been punted Quote
ayrshire_don74 Posted July 19, 2018 Report Posted July 19, 2018 am afraid the data doesnt support that we scored nearly 20 goals less last season than season before Quote
