Homme Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 2 hours ago, BackOfTheNet said: Well many will argue he cost us the Aberdeen game with his sending off. Gnanduillet never cost any points Or goals technically, but that doesn’t stop people slagging him off. Incidentally, which is not something I’m doing with Halliday, I’m simply stating the club could and should be aiming higher in terms of quality. I don’t know why thinking Halliday just isn’t very good is an opinion that gets so many people’s backs up. That's some serious straw clutching.

Japan Jambo Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 2 hours ago, BackOfTheNet said: Well yes, performance is down to opinion. To a degree. But this forum is full of different opinions as we have seen in this thread and others. I suspect this management team will want to offer their mate a contract, of that I am sure. I, personally (and in my opinion) think that any money that we’d spend on him can be better spent elsewhere - such as giving Haring more money to extend, or McKay to extend for example. Then when the recruitment team try and improve the team in the summer (as we should always be looking to improve) then we have current first team players like Smith or Haring or Devlin or Ginnelly be the players that have to fight for their place. Or maybe we spend the money on Cochrane signing permanently and he can be the utility player that at his age will know he won’t necessarily play every week. I hate the whole Rangers thing and I haven't been Robbie's biggest fan but if keeping their pal on board continues to have us at third in the league, with a cup run and a squad that now doesn't have any passengers then hey something is working - barry on I'm enjoying what I'm seeing and they are earning my trust.

Sertse Posted January 23, 2022 Author Share Posted January 23, 2022 I feel confident we'll see a couple signings next week. RN said in the post match interview he's looking to get a couple players in, he's very good at playing down transfers. If we were humped and couldn't get anyone I'm positive he'd be saying "well we have a strong squad, don't have a need to improve etc". My impression was they're both in the bag.

All roads lead to Gorgie Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 The way we are playing right now should be an incentive for players to sign especially with European football looking likely. Yes getting in the team won't be easy but we are a club on the up and joining us right now would be a good move for players with ambition. I hope if we are competing for targets they or their agents see this and we secure more quality to bolster the squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still think it will be towards the end of the week. But it wouldn't surprise me if we announce 3 signings on deadline day. I reckon we will sign two strikers (one of which can also play attacking Midfield) and a centre back. With Souttar out the door.

Andy Pirlo Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 Sat right in front of Joe Savage & Big Jig (before jig moved at KO) at the Talbot game…Jig says we are after more than £500k from Rangers. Savage said we were never in for Oshaniwa or the boy from chesterfield, said it is agents trying to get interest in their players and just using our name. His words were “national league, not good enough for Hearts” the feeling I got from him is we will not sign anyone unless they will really improve us, we will not just bring anyone in. Can see us using Gino as the 2nd striker & keep Henderson here. Savage btw…top man & was shouting the team on all game 👍🏼 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s maybe better than Stewart but he’s not been good enough to get a game for partick and has been punted back out on loan to a team lower down the leagues to get a game. Neither Stewart or stone is good enough just now to cover for gordon if the worst was to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
