montheton Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 9 hours ago, SassenachTon said: When we first took French on at RB, I watched a pile of Dundee footage on YouTube from last season. It's honestly like watching a different player, especially regarding his pace going forward. His leg break was a really bad one. Either he's not up to full fitness as PT says, or he's possibly lacking the confidence to get really stuck in, subconsciously protecting himself from another serious injury. He's very highly thought of by Dundee supporters. I seem to remember 20+ years ago someone with a similar bad injury coming back a shadow of his former self (RH winger / midfielder). Can`t really blame them as these things could be life changing on and off the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

montheton Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 No, not Mahood (I was only a few yards away when that happened, heard it snap! Horrible) It was another wee winger, can`t remember his name. Â Was really excited to see him back but had totally lost his edge, scared all the time. Shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LargsTON Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 (edited) Who was the boy we signed from Stranraer that had his leg broken against Partick right in front of the shed? Was a sickener. Think Hugh Murray was the culprit.

AyrshireTon Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 8 hours ago, TONofmemories said: Stephen Stirling Signed at the same time as Gaston, shortly after they'd faced each other in a play-off, and was a very promising player. Was never the same after that tackle. Wouldn't go in for hard challenges. Murray was sent off twice at Cappielow that season - the first for the tackle and the second because the Cowshed got to him, rent free etc. McGhee needs some support, there's no-one backing him up. Hayes playing it forward, Bell being forced to do it all alone, now forward from Marr, here's Ritchie, still Andy Ritchie, look at the control... That is a marvellous goal from Andy Ritchie. Twenty minutes on the clock and Morton's supporters come alive. A goal which epitomises the control, the arrogance, the cheek of Andy Ritchie.

SassenachTon Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 (edited) Lewie, Lewie Lewie ...... I've always loved how he takes a massive breath before answering a question, and seems to make it last for the next question as well. He then takes another massive breath for the next couple. What a boy. Â Edited January 26 by SassenachTon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RossMcC1874 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Makes sense I can't see him really getting game time here with the options we have. Not really sure what will happen with King there is clearly talent there but I can't help feel that time is maybe running out I know that seems strange to say but for me I don't really know where he fits in or his best position. Don't know what Imrie would be looking for if we did bring someone in I can't see it personally think he will be looking to tie the long term future of players rather than looking for anyone else, starting 11 seems to be picking itself most weeks with still good depth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post GiGi Posted January 30 Popular Post Share Posted January 30 King is 19, hardly time running out. Just no place for him in the team at the minute. 3 Â Peter Weatherson is the greatest player since Ritchie, and should be assigned 'chairman for life'Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
