All the young strikers are either not ready, out on loan or injured. And that's it. After losing Isma we haven't got any other options.

jbee647 Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Despite the fact, that many on here won’t admit when they might be wrong, this does prove there is a player there. Won’t make much difference to Sammon now, but hopefully the next signing who hasn’t proved to be a world beater after his first two games just might be given a little longer to prove himself. fact is Connor Sammon was written off by some before he kicked a ball for us, and by far too many after his first game at Tynecastle against Infonet. Would be a useful squad addition right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasn't given 5 minutes by some of the dumbos sitting in section C . He would be handy to have in the squad . Suspect the guy doesn't want anything to do with us and who can blame him ? .

Whilst being rejected by the PE teacher is one thing, it says a lot that Levein could have brought him back in two windows and refuses to do so. Probably driven by his wages for starters.

OTT Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 I wouldn't take him back. I think its all well and good being able to do it for a smaller team with smaller demands. No disrespect to Partick but we saw the same thing with Dennis Wyness and you could argue similar of Danny Swanson. Both looked shit hot playing for teams with low expectations but fold when there is a level of expectation. I'd hope we can capitalise on his goal run and see if Partick want to make it permanent.

Watt-Zeefuik Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Not at all convinced that he'd maintain form if he came back, given the difference between the way Partick plays and the way we play, but I'm delighted for him. He couldn't find the goal with a GPS unit when he was with us but he always worked hard, never hid, didn't complain, and kept his head up. I hope he helps keep Partick up and maybe makes us a bit back on a transfer at the end of the season. All the best to him but don't think bringing him back to Tynecastle is the answer.

However, apparently it’s all about scoring goals and nothing else. Hes not a ****ing target man. Who gives a **** how good he is at heading or jumping if he’s playing the ball in to dangerous areas, making incisive passes, occupying defenders and scoring goals. He didn’t hide in games, he went out there each week and tied his best despite getting zero help from his ‘partner’ and had to put up with cat calls from simpletons. His goals for Partick are in the same league as we are playing, and in spite of having worse players around him. That is a stupid argument. We are paying the guy to score a goal a game for another club plus assists. It’s ****ing idiotic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only reason I actually agree with you that he probably wouldn’t maintain it, is down to the high proportion of puddle-drinking ‘experts’ in our support who think you support a team by booing players in the warm up, or when they come on as a sub.
