It's average news at best. As far as I can tell, that rumour comes from someone replying to the original tweet asking if it's an ex-Motherwell player and then a pretend ITK account putting 2+2 together and coming up with Hastie. Agreed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jc, big Dave and Pressley spring to mind for us. Stewart, Hastie and Jones at rangers atm. Yeah fair enough, but you would have thought he would perform well on loan like Docherty did in his loan spells. Not against the signing, but not one that excites me personally.

I suppose the point is that Hastie is a gamble. Too many punts in recent seasons. If we get three quality signings over and above him then fair enough.

I will be very interested to see what brown gets away with while with Aberdeen. If he gets standard non OF treatment he’ll be sent off every 4 or 5 games. He is visibly slowing down and will be found out when he doesn’t have decent players around him. His first instinct will be to do too much and that’s a recipe for disaster. Shame.

GMS would fall in that category and hes been pilloried (is that a word?) by fans. Hastie did well for Well on loan but hasn’t done anything since.

What I’d like, maybe not exactly on point, are tried and tested players such as Campbell or players who have been improving and have a strong chance of continuing to improve such as McGrath at st mirren. We probably aren’t in for Hastie but a guy who was good a couple of years ago, then failed at Rangers and became a bench warmer at Motherwell is maybe too much of a punt given RN said he’s trimming the squad. Although I’d add that if we get a couple of the former, there’s maybe room for a few high risk but high reward type transfers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SidewaysFitba Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Felt that better teams would be easily able to play through us this season, thankfully, we didn't play many better sides. Halliday makes a better LB than he does a defensive mid. No use putting McEneff there, seems a waste. Maybe Campbell could play there if Hearts do sign him. Alternatively, Liam Bridcutt could play that role. 18month deal or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
