Tzetanov Posted May 30, 2019 Report Posted May 30, 2019 Would be very surprised if Taylor , Main and GMS aren’t paraded next week. Quote
Tyrant Posted May 31, 2019 Report Posted May 31, 2019 Would be very surprised if Taylor , Main and GMS aren’t paraded next week. He'll be like a new signing. Quote
A llad insane Posted June 1, 2019 Report Posted June 1, 2019 Supposed to be after McGeough again, not getting much a sniff at Soonderland. Quote
Ten Caat Posted June 1, 2019 Report Posted June 1, 2019 As are Hivs. And of course the Retard have linked him with sevco as they now seem to do all our targets....let's face it sevco haven't got enough midfielders...……………………….. And I hope to f@ck someone else gets him. Massively overrated. Couldn't get into a Sunderland side that was unable to get out EFL1 and on £8k/week. Can't see Sunderland paying up his contract but if they want to ship him out on loan they'd need to stump up minimum 50% of that....if it were to a Scottish club more likely 75%. Have seen others say he'd be an upgrade on Gleeson. Maybe marginally....more mobile certainly but as I say....I hope he goes elsewhere. If we are to sign a Hivs target then please let it be McNulty Quote
KennyFuckinPowers Posted June 1, 2019 Author Report Posted June 1, 2019 Think McNulty is signing for Coventry Ten Caat. Side note, the winger allegedly already signed a pre-contract is Ryan Hedges. I know absolutely nothing about him. A quick look on Wikipedia though, He's been capped 3 times for Wales since 2017 and more recently played 50+ games for Barnsley, scoring twice. He's 6ft 1" though, pretty tall for a winger. Quote

KennyFuckinPowers Posted June 1, 2019 Author Report Posted June 1, 2019 Peter O'Rourke now reporting that we have agreed a deal to sign Hedges. This is a snippet from the Daily Record though. Aberdeen have agreed a deal to sign Barnsley winger Ryan Hedges - according to a report. The 23-year-old was a vital member of a Tykes side which earned promotion to the Championship last season. The Wales international is available on a free after deciding against extending his stay in Yorkshire and is currently undergoing a medical with the Dons, claim Football Insider. Hedges has earned three caps for his country since Ryan Giggs took charge. It could be a double boost for Aberdeen with New York City unlikely to make a move for Gary Mackay-Steven after .a change of formation. Apparently undertaking a Medical, or is due to undertake a medical. Quote
Elgindon Posted June 1, 2019 Report Posted June 1, 2019 Know nothing about the boy,but mildly surprised he's chosen here ahead of the championship,but welcome aboard to the loon.Got to be an upgrade on Rooney/Stewart/Wilson on the wing Quote
BigAl Posted June 1, 2019 Report Posted June 1, 2019 Like Elgindon I can't claim to know too much about him, but at a good age, full international and his club wanted to keep him, so sounds like he could be ok. Apparently got MOTM on his international debut Quote
baggy89 Posted June 1, 2019 Report Posted June 1, 2019 Lad in my under 14’s is a big Barnsley fan describes him as a “decent winger, played for Wales for a while, didn’t get much game time this season” Quote
Slim Posted June 1, 2019 Report Posted June 1, 2019 Surprised Hibs wouldn’t be in for him if he’s a good player available on a free from Barnsley. Sounds promising enough though and still quite young too. Quote
Ten Caat Posted June 1, 2019 Report Posted June 1, 2019 Sad reflection on how far Scottish football has fallen that Barnsley are even mentioned in the same breath as us. 30 years ago every single Barnsley player would have crawled all the way up with 2 broken legs to sign for us. Anyway welcome aboard loon. Not sure if this confirms GMS has had the stay/go decision taken out of his hands by the club? Notice a few Barnsley fans saying he's often injured.....aye DM does like a loon that's well acquainted with the A+E department. Quote
Guest kiriakovisthenewstrachan Posted June 1, 2019 Report Posted June 1, 2019 That's nonsense. I can't think of ONE poster on here who "harps back to the 80's and is unwilling to let go of the past". Quote
Jute Posted June 1, 2019 Report Posted June 1, 2019 Mate who is a Barnsley fan described Hedges as “not a bad player, wasn’t a regular starter for us but good impact sub”. Played for Wales in recent friendly against Trinidad which I watched and cannot say that I remember him from it but he was apparently man of the match. Quote
manc_don Posted June 2, 2019 Report Posted June 2, 2019 At least hedges sounds promising, but hopefully he's not another crock Quote
Elgindon Posted June 3, 2019 Report Posted June 3, 2019 Bit of confusion with the 'not a regular starter',along with the 'pivotal' player comments.Had a look and he played 25 times last season.Cant find the sub appearances but he averaged around 35mins a game going by stats. 17 off the bench according to p and j Quote

Quote
KennyFuckinPowers Posted June 3, 2019 Author Report Posted June 3, 2019 Get the impression he's shown a bit of potential and for one reason or another, not really fulfilled it, I read he's Injury Prone and I also read that he makes little to no impact when he starts games, he's usually more effective as a substitution. Supposed to be unveiled today, we will see. Quote
RicoS321 Posted June 3, 2019 Report Posted June 3, 2019 There's a lot of potential in yer wingers fae down South like, so it's an interesting signing if it happens. It's entirely different down there if yer a McGinn style winger and those types often struggle to fit in due to the more physical approach. That said, if we're looking at Main and the like then he'll struggle to fit into that more direct approach too. The biggest concern is that, at 6ft1, he's going to be nowhere near tall enough to keep an Ash Taylor pass from going out of play. Quote
ayrshire_don74 Posted June 3, 2019 Report Posted June 3, 2019 guess this might be someone with potential or maybe thats the filter russ richardson has on his fm database.. lets hope its not a forrester mark 2 Quote
Ten Caat Posted June 3, 2019 Report Posted June 3, 2019 guess this might be someone with potential or maybe thats the filter russ richardson has on his fm database.. lets hope its not a forrester mark 2 A Forrester mk2 should see the entire management and scouting teams binned. Overall fan reaction to this one seems to be "meh". That he is a full Wales cap has to be to his advantage though....they'd destroy Scotland at the minute. Although if there are and Welsh versions of Donsdaft tuning in....he's English by birth Quote
Slim Posted June 3, 2019 Report Posted June 3, 2019 Simon Church was a Welsh international when we signed him too. Quote
afc1903mad Posted June 3, 2019 Report Posted June 3, 2019 Simon Church was a Welsh international when we signed him too. I though Simon Church did a job for us at the time we needed cover for Rooney. 6vgoals in 13 games was nae a bad return. Quote
BigAl Posted June 3, 2019 Report Posted June 3, 2019 I though Simon Church did a job for us at the time we needed cover for Rooney. 6vgoals in 13 games was nae a bad return. I agree min, thought some of the criticism directed his way was a tad OTT. We've certainly had a lot worse than him playing up front in years gone by. Quote
