At least you’re not in a minority of one. I think he’s done well when he’s played this season. Whether he can keep that going or even if he wants to stay are the two questions.

stuart500 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 White is no too bad as an attacker but poor defensively. I only realised when I saw this thread that he was completely missing today. I suppose that says it all in reality. If we can move him on then Im sure we can find a better use for his wages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dia Liom Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Kind of assumed he had done himself in with the effort of the cup final.

Mr Rabbit Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 He’s done a lot better this year than he did last but we should be aiming for better. I think moving him on now isn’t as much an issue with GMS coming in. Halliday can play left back and GMS can play left wing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Added to Lee already leaving, Moore being offered the chance to go on loan, then you are really cutting back the squad. Added to Souttar unlikely to play this season, Zlamel off if they can shift him (but rumours on here that he is staying till end of season.)

Regal Kingston Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Won the penalty in the semi final. The gamble was worthwhile for that alone. Thought he had a good game against Celtic too.

Hungry hippo Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 White is a good squad player but with Halliday able to provide good cover at LB we would be fine if he left.

Locky Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Am I missing something regarding Wighton? He's finally done this season, what we expected from him, and people seem happy to see him go? We forgetting that we're already in the market for a striker with him on the books? Without him, we'd need 2, unless the one we bring in is guaranteed to bag 15+ goals a season and is available every week. The need for a striker at the moment isn't due to a lack of firepower. We've got goals in us, that's clear to see. As far as I'm concerned, the need for a striker is because ultimately, we only really have Wighton and Boyce, with the latter being rather injury prone. Wighton won't compete for the golden boot, but he's a grafter and coming across as the reliable backup option that all teams need to have.

I really don't understand the hatred some people have for him If he left in the summer, I'd have gave zero ****s. But he's chipped in with his fair share of goals this season so I really don't know what some expect. If he'd still not scored this season, fair play. If he goes at the end of the season, or at some point back in the Premiership, I'd understand. But to bin him in January in a season where he's one of our top scorers, seems bizarre.

Guest ToqueJambo Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 (edited) I like his enthusiasm and bite, and his versatility. He also shows surprising flashes of skill. I'd give him a contract extension purely for his skill in the cup final to help setup Naisy's goal. As good a passage of play in such a big game as I've ever seen from us.

martoon Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 We simply can't afford injury plagued, ageing, bit players. No, I don't know the ins and outs of our budget, or what percentage of it Aidy White gets but, whatever, it will probably be dough we can't afford to waste. Nothing against Adrian, personally, but I doubt very much that he's value for money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He won the (clinching) penalty v Hibs, and his brilliant play set up the first goal v Celtic which turned the whole course of the match. He's hardly had a lot of game time, but you can't say he hasn't left his mark. Put it another way - he's not Damour, whose only memorable contributions have been giving away possession which led to conceding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
