Toby Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Lyon stays every other **** that's shat the bed time and again should be punted as far to **** from our club as possible ... is the correct answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bewilderedbeast Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Apologies if posted already, but heard that Gaston has signed. PSC with Dunfermline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreamOakTree Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Most posters on here have been saying that JJ doesn’t get the best out of our players, which makes it difficult to assess who would be worth keeping, especially if JJ leaves. I would like to see Gaston, Millar, Lyon, Oliver, Strapp and Johnstone (if fit) stay. Also Kiltie if possible. Iredale could also improve under a proper manager.

Iredale could also improve under a proper manager. A few of those would be ok at League 1 level but keeping 7 of this year's losers in the Championship would be admitting defeat before a ball is kicked. Morton will probably keep more than seven and we will suffer accordingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morton will probably keep more than seven and we will suffer accordingly. The problem has mainly been a duff manager rather than the players. I wouldn't be too disappointed if we kept most but then again I wouldn't be bothered about losing them either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TopCat Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Whilst I agree we shouldn't be hanging in to too many, that's a bit harsh on those listed. Only Millar has had a full season and even then you could make an argument for him having played far too many matches. Johnstone might turn out to be a cracking player at this level but we can't afford to take such a big risk on a high earner if we're going with a really small squad.

Any Morton player who thinks they've contributed as much as they possibly can this season needs a boot up the arse. You address me by my proper title, you little bollocks!

TheGoon Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Would anyone sign up Waddell if we’re still in the Championship? Out of contract and seems interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevie Aitken's Love Child Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 Yeah if Waddell wasnt't offered a new deal by Dundee then sure, I'd be looking to go and have a chat. He definitely has raw potential, and his form has suffered like most of the team under the buffoon in the dugout, but I see potential in there.

Charles_Joe Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 I thought they could only claim compensation if they offer him terms equal or better than what he’s on and he chooses not to sign it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EanieMeany Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 If I was another team, I'd look at the biggest majority of our squad and go "aye, they're alright, I'll take them" but it'd be hard to be enthusiastic about too many staying after the way things have went. I've probably said it before, but we've got a squad of players that mostly consists of alright mid-table Championship players. With a run of the mill manager getting the basic level out of each of them, we'd be on the coat-tails of the play-offs and probably just squeezed out in the end; with the right manager, which could or could not have been McKinnon, getting a bit more out of them, we'd most likely be fairly comfortable in 4th place by now; with a really shite one, we'd be exactly where we are now. We'd probably get on better if the players weren't still trying to work out what Johansson wants and just ignored him: all you need to do is look at the way the midfielders stand at the half-way line, desperate to push forward and clearly being told not to.

If Buchanan is going to sign up for next season then I don't think we can afford to bring in Waddell. Their strengths and, more importantly, weaknesses are too similar for them to play together. They don't have 90 minutes of concentration between them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madton Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 Prob depends what League Dundee are in next season. If they come down they might offer him something but can't see them keeping him if they stay up. If JJ is the manager next season, i don't think it really matters how the squad looks, we will be rank rotten again! 1 win in 13, 20% win ratio, 26 goals scored and 41 conceded in his 29 league games, It's getting ridiculous now that he is still our manager!

so72 Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 Dundee have just announced a list of 8 young first-team players who they will be releasing in the summer. Waddell's name isn't on the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
