Those were the names mentioned. In terms of Kyle Lafferty I know he wasn't endorsed by all HMFC fans but he did fit into the way we played well, and scored goals against many more clubs than simply Celtic. Everyone is entitled to their opinion and in mine if he were to come back I think he would benefit us in general and also specifically benefit Uche an awful lot. Uche, in my opinion, is struggling to play the role of our sole striker at the moment and having someone else up there to share the work with him would be a big boost. But we'll just have to wait and see how it pans out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

i wish jj was my dad Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 I would take Gordon. Lafferty has burnt his boats though. No idea about Wallace. He only seems to have played 5 minutes this year. If there is anything in this and we are also in for Bryson we will have an older team than Doddie's Dad's Army.

Deevers Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 I believe that Lafferty has been told to find another club. Gerrard didn’t want him there in the first place. He was a Dave King signing to show that they could still pull in players from other Scottish clubs to placate the Orcs. I know that members of Lafferty’s family were unhappy at him leaving Hearts. I reckon he still has a couple of years at the top level left in him. I would have him back if it were an option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jodami Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Are we under a transfer embargo where we can only sign ex players? Novel punishment but I confess I missed what we did to deserve this. Lafferty is a no from me, principally due to the fact I never felt he contributed that much team wise. I thought some of our ITK types said Levein wasn't enamoured with him anyway so they were happy to get rid (which was brilliant business by the way).

stan Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 5 hours ago, AlphonseCapone said: He done great for us and that was to my surprise. Do I think we'd get that Lafferty coming back? Nah, just feel like we got the best out of him and his career will keep going down the way. I also want players that are honoured to play for us, I reckon he'd expect us to be honoured he is playing for us again. He did really well when with us, no doubt of that - best goal scorer in years. I think part of the reason was that he was incentivised to do so by the opportunity to get a big move onwards from Hearts. That incentive would be missing if he came back and I fear we would be getting the current Lafferty rather than the lethal and motivated one we saw last time.

Martin_T Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 His motivation last season was to catch The Rangers eye and earn a move back to Ibrox, with that gone, I suspect that we'd get the player who was frequently underwhelming and often dropped from the starting xi for games out with Celtic.

Okay, I was saying that his effort levels against the diddies made that look pretty bad by comparison. Anyway, his one game partnership with Uche looked like it might have bore fruit, but I honestly dunno if we'd get a Kyle Lafferty that wants to play football, or a Kyle Lafferty thats bored and uninterested. Big risk IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rudi must stay Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 (edited) If he's interested then definatly He knows where the goal is, and I also think he did a good job last time, goals v Hibs and Celtic, so he's a bit of a whatever off the pitch who cares. That's the industry But the first point is crucial, wouldn't want him taking Hearts for a ride.

whodanny Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Unlikely stuff, but yes , I'd take him back, as a back up. He knows where the bag is, he knows the Hearts treated him good, he now knows the sevco took the pish out of him. He's just the sort to get angry at them and do the business for us, maybe.

AlimOzturk Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 We got money for him, he wanted to go to his boyhood club. It has failed for him I don't think he left on bad terms with levein.
