Don Dan Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 (edited) If Hickey is suspended and Souttar injured he will play. I don’t think we have anyone else that’s a left full back Edited August 5, 2019 by Dannie Boy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we signed him I spoke with a Leeds fan at worked and he absolutely raved about him. If we can get him anywhere close to the potential he showed a few years back we'll have a gem of a player.

It's a good question. It would have given him some more valuable game time to get match fit. He will be required to play next week unless CL opts for Bobby Burns or moves Michale Smith to LB and plays Brandon at RB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
