Looks like they spend their time also posting drivel about potential signings Not sure there’s a correlation between the guys who hate Isma and the posts on this thread about Temps to be honest.

I wouldn't be moderating our recruitment plans based on that performance in isolation I didn't say it was him specifically Whether the Celtic result was a freak or not remains to be seen. I didn't say we should modify our recruitment plans based on that performance in isolation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andy81 Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 Templeton would add to an area that needs strengthen. Not seen enough to know if he is at a level for the first team, or a back up? Pre contract would seem sensible, then see if Hamilton may accept £25/30k for deal to go through now! If we are spending £200/300k it needs to be be for a player that is an absolute stand out! Templeton certainly isn't that especially when available for free on the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lovecraft Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 Maybe Templeton is one of these players that loses interest once he has a long contract? He wasn't injured the whole time at Ibrox was he? I thought he was just dropped? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasn't injured the whole time at Ibrox was he? I thought he was just dropped? He had an injury problem that nobody at Ibrox could solve. He only got it sorted out once he left them and has been more or less fully fit since then. I would take him back in a minute. Extract from an article about his problem. Doesn't say a lot for the medical/physio team at Ibrox. “When I left Rangers we didn’t know what the problem was. I was without a club so didn’t really know where to turn or what to do. “I spoke to Dave Baldwin and told him I was going to retire at 27. Thankfully he said that wasn’t happening – we’d find a cure. “He eventually put me in touch with a surgeon in London who a few of his other players had used in the past. And sure enough he got to the bottom of it. “I don’t know why the medical people I’d seen up here couldn’t sort it. But he put a camera into my knee and could see the issue. It was a tear of my medial ligament but the deep portion of it. “If I’d got that during my previous operation they might have spotted it and things could have been different. We could have saved months of my career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our defence is solid and young Brandon or Smith have proven extremely capable at left back. Focus on Midfield and Attack please. At all costs. Can't disagree with what you say but I still think the imbalance affects the team.(left back). We all know the script. You can take the ball quicker and more naturally on the side suited to the player. Thus the ball is played quicker and more efficiently. Neither of the lads above use their left automatically. They always come inside whereas when you are natural to a side of the park you can go outside or inside and still be a threat going forward.

Of course the balance of the team is affected when we play without a natural left back in the side. That said, my reply was to the poster who appeared to suggest that sorting the left back position was the most critical. I disagree with that viewpoint 100%. It’d be nice to sign a left back and the balance of the side would indeed be better but I can think of 3 positions I’d rather we strengthened in first.

Watt-Zeefuik Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Brandon has filled in admirably but he's an inexperienced right back playing at left back and we've generally had to shift the formation to provide cover for him. A more solid left back who could give us more stability there and a bit more forward initiative could help us solve our scoring problem by getting the ball to the forwards.

They can be as blase as they like but the fact is the club needs to concentrate on recruiting players better than Walker and others who have left in recent seasons. This is something they have failed miserably in doing and the recruitment has been a catastrophe. He will only be forgotten if we get better in.

Papa Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Mixed feelings about this one to be fair. Walker was one player who in recent seasons could get me off my seat. On the other hand for a self-confessed fan to treat his boyhood heroes and its fans as he has done is beyond the pale and frankly unforgivable. No mention of a sell-on clause either. If he returns for a half-time interview I for one will not be applauding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
