Madton Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Im torn on Tiff staying. He is only 19 and has shown his potential with some good performances last season but at the same time he will probably want a first team wage rather than a fringe/development one seeing as he played most of last season and I think we could use that wage to bring in a more established wide man, cardle for example. For me he is not at a level where he should start for us yet and should he sign, should be viewed as the 4th dev player. He will still get chances of course, but not as much as last season.

Mr.Blue Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 A brilliant signing. Still a few more signings to come but I like what McKinnon is doing. There's a storm on the horizon And for that I can't see the sun For I'll keep a waiting on the pavement For the ice cream van to come Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need better than Tiff. Wasn't impressed by him last year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rex manning Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Would love Tiff to stay. His pace and drive are good qualities to have. Yes he struggled with his end product and decision making at times last year, but he never hid and there's definitely a player in there. I want a pretentious signature too.

Scott Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Gaston New Kilday Buchanan Iredale Millar McAlister New Oliver MacLean Johnstone Subs: Scully CB New full-back Tidser McHugh Thomson Telfer Still hope we can get Quitongo signed up but not fussed if he goes. We have a decent spine to the squad now from back to front with decent options on the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 I doubt Telfer will be on the bench. Pretty intrigued to see how Ray is going to set us up. Just hope he doesn’t go 4-3-3. From what I’ve seen of his sides he usually likes to go 4-2-3-1. Telfer can play in the same role Oliver does so he may well be a starter with Oliver on the bench or out wide although that isn’t Oliver’s preferred position.

Telfer can play in the same role Oliver does so he may well be a starter with Oliver on the bench or out wide although that isn’t Oliver’s preferred position. If the three midfielders just behind the striker stay narrow to allow for attacking full backs then you could conceivably have Oliver and Telfer in the same line-up.

Madton Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 With him going with 18 quality players, rather than say 20-21 good players, I can see a fair bit of rotation this season. If you look at the middle 5 positions( assuming we play 4231/4231)- we already have Tids, Telfer, Maclean, Jim, Millar and Oliver with presumably at least 1 more to come in for that area. They will all expect to start games which is what we need, strong competition can only be a good thing. Would like to see. Gats. New New Buchanan Iredale. Miller McAlister New Telfer MacLean Johnstone. Scully. Kilday. Tidser. Oliver Thomson McHugh New Striker! 4 youths as backup! As long as the new players are of similar quality to the new recruits, I'm confident we will be up there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TONofmemories Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Still sceptical of going a season with just Iredale as the recognised left back. Whilst he had a good spell, he's still relatively inexperienced TIME FOR CHANGE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HamCam Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Still sceptical of going a season with just Iredale as the recognised left back. Whilst he had a good spell, he's still relatively inexperienced I would have thought Strapp was the backup. Both relatively inexperienced but they will only, hopefully, improve with game time.

Malt Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 I'm more concerned we have no right backs. Iredale proved he was excellent at Left back and Strapp gets good reviews. The loan move would have done him well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The loan move would have done him well. Mckinnon said the other day that he missed out on Gary Miller, so he's definitely in the market for at least one right back.

The loan move would have done him well. Iredale is an excellent attacking left back, but I still think he needs to develop defensively and hopefully being first choice can give him the amount of game time needed to develop. I'd like to have a look at Strapp in the friendlies/League Cup and see what his level is at the moment. If Strapp isn't ready for Championship football then having Iredale as the only left back would be a risk. You address me by my proper title, you little bollocks!
