Beast Boy Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Let's hope that somebody thinks the same of Oshinawa.... Difference of course being, Gowser played very well for us on numerous occasions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I.T.K Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Could do a job! I dont see him being first choice but he would be a good player to provide cover when needed until the end of the season. I assume hes unattached just now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bungalow Bill Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Is it the fashionable thing to say that Gowser is 'average'? I never thought that when he played for us. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Seems to be. He had an ungainly running style, apart from that he always seemed a decent, and committed rb to me.

amadjambo Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Athletic, aggressive, composed, experienced, good solid defender, decent going forward, good in the air, physically strong, quick, a natural leader.

cardboardcutout Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 As competent a defender as Paterson and not afraid to get stuck in! We confuse ourselves with teams that pay 2 or 3 times as much as we can and the reality is that most of the time we can't be overly fussy! Osh or gowser?

Rudiboy Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Maybe isn't the best player to wear the jersey but by god was he a winner. Just what we need IMO. So many of our players look like they couldn't give a sh1t! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Don Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Was Gowser a great player ? No. We had better in the team and he wasn't and isn't the most skilled footballer. However. Would I want Gowser back now? Yes, because even after saying what I have about him he would still improve what we have at present. Not only that he bleeds Hearts. He's a PHM and knows exactly what it means to pull on that Maroon jersey, and with that he hates the vermin. Imagine we had Gowser, Berra in the team along with Hughes and Souttar I've no doubts that would be the best defence in Scotland by some distance. Nursing a large one now at that thought.

Deevers Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Take him back in a flash. Maybe not the greatest footballer ever to wear maroon, but boy what a great attitude and love for the club.

uniwildcat38 Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 This change in the Chinese league rules regarding foreign players could impact on Gowser. I wonder if his team might consider paying out his contract to make roster space for signing another non-Asian player? http://www.theage.com.au/sport/soccer/australian-players-in-limbo-after-chinese-super-league-foreign-player-rule-changes-20170116-gtspfd.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwidoug Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 I'd have him back in an instant if only for scoring my favourite Hearts goal in my 68 years on this planet. Seem to remember his dad was under a real cloud in Scotland. Hope that is all sorted out and Ryan is dealing to the OF in the next couple of weeks.

His team nearly got relegated last season as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
