Mr.Blue Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Excellent news that oboy and Shug have extended their deals. Hopefully a few more to come. I'd love to see us strengthen the squad. Being really harsh and thinking about Saturdays team I think we need a replacement for french, power, blues a day an alternative for big Oakley. Can't see these all coming in as we dont have the finances or space. However if we move a few out on loan you never know. 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...

Could be true/complete nonsense! With this being said, I see some suggestions that Muirhead could be of interest to Killie. When you think about it, it would be a potential now or never for him to make the step up and having probably 2 of the best seasons in his career. I wonder how much of a fee we could command if they came sniffing this month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here, good player for us at this level, but I’m not convinced he’d have what it takes to perform for a team looking to finish in the top 6 of SPFL.

I agree. I also don't think he is irreplaceable for us either if he was to go. I view him as a luxury player who's done well under Imrie and added to his game (set pieces) and would wish him all the best if a club was to come in for him. Unlike Crawford who attracted interest at the start of the season - he would me much more difficult to replace. Just when you look at the top scorers in the league, the only other players that seem to look like they could attract interest are Paton and Fitzpatrick. No one is touching a Dundee United player and neither is anyone going to sign Brian Graham. I just think with his contract running out Muirhead could be a cheaper option to be added to a team in the top flight. To think just a few seasons ago I never wanted him to pull the jersey on for us again. It does go to show how important having the backing and confidence of his own manager (and not starting him at LB) can do wonders for a player. Dougie has shown this time and time again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TopCat Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 Muirhead's all-round approach to the game has improved massively under Imrie. While his contribution from set pieces etc. has been great recently, he always had the raw ability to make that happen. It's his attitude to the donkey work and getting stuck into a physical battle that both Muirhead and Imrie deserve the most credit for sorting out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your appraisal there looks the type of attributes the McInnes would go for: physical battles, set pieces and link-up play are mainstays of Killie's game plans under him.

port-ton Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 Tele saying strapp might stay and that we are looking down south for signings if we can get some fringe players out the door. You'd imagine we'd be trying to get at least one of the wind players out on loan. Boyd and Bearne the likely candidates but if it's mcgrattan then I riot. Good people will do good things, bad people will do bad things, but only with religion do good people do bad things! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TONofmemories Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 (edited) Bearne would make sense given he's on a longer term deal. Mcgrattan would be stupid IMO Edited January 18 by TONofmemories TIME FOR CHANGE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel Martins, appears to be a centre back at Caley Braves (maybe for next season?) Davies has signed a pre contract deal starting in June!

TRVMP Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 Interesting one. The top clubs in the Welsh league are probably mid-table League One. If there was a guy in the diddy Falkirk league with those kind of numbers, Championship clubs would be sniffing around. It's a risk, of course, but if the club's done their homework then hopefully it'll work out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie_M Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 (edited) Dougie labelling it a coup in the quote on the official site so we also get to look forward to him pronouncing that as cowp on his next interview. Doesn't sound like any chance of getting him up the road early so we will be looking on with interest for the rest of the season. Random plucking a nomadic 28 year old rather than someone younger. Stats looking intriguing certainly. Edited January 18 by Jamie_M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You address him by his proper title. 5 The site is supposed to be a place for the extended 'family' of Morton supporters - having an affinity with people that you don't know, because you share a love of your local football club. It's not supposed to be about point scoring and showing how 'clever' or 'funny' you are, or just being downright rude and offensive to people you don't know, because you can get away with it. Unfortunately, it seems the classic case of people who have little standing/presence in real life, use this forum as a way of making themselves feel as if they are something. It's sad, and I've said that before.. So, having been on Morton forums for about 15 years I guess, I've had enough... well done t*ssers, another Morton supporter driven away. You can all feel happy at how 'clever' you are Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
