Other positions, especially midfield/out wide are a bigger priority. If RN rates the lad and wants him then as long as it doesn’t hamper the prospects of strengthening the other areas then I don’t see the problem. We’ve signed a solid GK and if we have guys who will score goals then a couple of midfielders will be enough to get us promoted again.

Doesn't mean we can't afford him tbh, likely means we don't think he's worth anymore. Sam was decent for us and when we had a rotation of Walker/ King/ Sam it benefited the team and them as it mean't they could be taken in/ out dependent on form rather than continually played no matter what, but imo Sam was not as effective as Walker for us at that time. We do need his typ tho, a wide, direct player. "we do need his type tho, a wide, direct player" How about David Templeton? Was immense for Hamilton before Burton. Boyce being here could persuade him. Sure it was Ryan Edwards who persuaded Boyce to go to Hearts, plus a bit from Templeton as well i'd have thought. Templeton already knows what Hearts are about and has said in the past that he has unfinished business at Tynie. He's probably about 30-31 now so still a good age.

Bunny Munro Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 (edited) Uche has regressed horribly since he joined us. And it's not just 'teams finding him out', I think he's been coached badly, used more as a battering ram than a footballer. I'm willing to give him a chance under Robbie.

Dia Liom Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 Uche is only 25 or so. He has a shocker last season, despite that he was still one of our few threats at times. Totally hung out to dry, like Berra, - if a player is struggling that badly, and suffering mentally as a result, that's on the managment imo. I wouldn't be at all surprised if Uche makes some posters eat their words. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather we found someone younger with potential to improve. I actually think he is guilty of trying too hard at times. He will do so well to create space and then fluff a pass or a shot as he is so desperate to keep a move going or get a shot away, when I think he'd benefit from chilling out a bit and keeping his head at times. A confident Uche could still be a great asset for us, guess we will see if Robbie fancies him or not and he takes his chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His strengths are obvious, and to us fans so are his weakness, but as you say he was being coached poorly, or asked to not play to his strengths.

No your thinking of the main site for Charles River on the Elphinstone to Ormiston farm Road,they also have 5 stand alone units at East Mains,including offices,labs,barns and actual livestock fields that surround the training ground. I've no interest in what they do with their animals,i've seen it for myself,but seen as your commenting the animals are bred with specific ailments,then they experiment whilst they are still alive.Not my idea of a great quality of life being a Beagle drugged up and rattling in a kennel 24 hours a day.

CJGJ Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 Airdrie seem to have made a good purchase but I suspect the agent is behind the move But Scottish League One club Airdrie have won the race for Thomas Robert in what is a major coup. The single-minded youngsters had offers on the table from Nice and Rennes in his homeland but has snubbed them for senior football. As his agent Mark McKay revealed last month to Football Insider, guaranteed first-team football would be key to Robert’s decision where to continue his career. Similar to his famous footballing father, Robert is an attacking player and is a versatile forward who can play down both flanks as well as behind the main centre-forward. This site revealed in May that Newcastle United, Rangers and Celtic were among the clubs keeping tabs on the teenager with a view to signing him on a summer free.

Read the article and it just says that Gordon is balancing cuts with strenthing the squad. Nothing really critical.

I'm sure he'll be fine for them, has a good record goals wise but honestly don't understand where the clamour for him came from to sign for us. We have a proven Premiership goalscorer who wants to stay in Boyce, a proven Scotland international in Naismith, and a player who should hopefully look better and more consistent than Premiership level in Uche. I wouldn't have been happy if we'd spent 6 figures on a player where we are well stocked when we are battling against 8 million losses at the moment. Same with Nicholson too. We don't need to push the boat out to win the Championship. Arrogant as it sounds but in some games we just need to turn up.
