davemclaren Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Just now, Tom Hardy’s Dug said: I’d rather we had Conan than Aberdeen because we know Goodwin can get a tune out of him in a crap team. On other matters - Robbie will be keeping things under wraps but I bet him and the coaches are disappointed they didn’t get the 2 or 3 rumoured/expected additional signings over the line this week before leaving for Spain today. He will hope for movement quickly I am sure because having as many new players as possible in a foreign training camp is the best foundation for new players bonding and gelling with what they need to bond and gel with. We can’t buy every good player unfortunately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye he scored a couple of crackers,but so did Dougie Imrie.😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He started poncing around, doing all these tricks and turns trying to look like the superstar. I eventually had enough and went through him. He spent the rest of the game playing hide and seek 😂 Haha superb. I was a Lampard - couldn't do many tricks but I could take it past my man, had a powerful shot, and could ping passes around pretty accurately. I probably should have worn Nike Tiempos or something like that lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to see more 9's, 5 weeks away now from day 1, 8 weeks to Europe and around 10 to window closing, I daresay I will need to wait until week 9 at least Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ribble Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 3 hours ago, jamboinglasgow said: To put things into perspective, this time last year we had only made the loans of Stewart and Ginnelly permanent. Before the start of the League cup games we had only added Cochrane, and then before the start of the league season we had signed Beni. This season it looks like we will have at least 5 players signed before the end of June. In addition to that, most seasons when we bring someone in later on in the window they are behind us in terms of fitness due to Scotland starting a week or two before other leagues, this year players coming in that aren’t free agents will have been doing pre-season with their current clubs due to the World Cup meaning everyone starting earlier this year so if we do bring in players late in the window they should already be up to full fitness Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Sanchez Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 This is not said through maroon tinted specs but I cannot for the life of me see why anyone would choose Aberdeen over Heart of Midlothian. Even for an extra couple of hundred a week. It's bewildering if it happens. Absolutely embarrassing to see Boyce being linked with them.
