What's the big shout for what will potentially be panic buys
The league is over
It was in truth over after a handful of games so let's not talk about signing centre half's that are either not good enough, Injury prone and past their best (Porteus, Katic, Evans)
Take our time and build for next season as I am sick of the circus that has become our club.
08 Jan 2025 13:15:53
Because we still have a cup and progress out of the EL.
08 Jan 2025 13:21:52
Davy, what would the panic be bringing jonny evans in on a short term deal until the end of the season mate ? None IMO ? He's still a very experienced centre half, who let's be honest would cruise it in our league ?.
08 Jan 2025 13:22:33
We need a cb signed, but I'd be signing better and younger, get him bedded in for next season.
08 Jan 2025 13:30:45
Sink or swim. Nsiala thursday see how he deals with Simon Murray chasing every ball he needs to learn fast.
08 Jan 2025 13:33:32
I agree Star. it takes a while to settle and Evans is the definition of short term if we have him until rest of season. I would rather play King and give him a chance where he doesn't get battered by ECL opposition or Nsiala to see how he handles it.
08 Jan 2025 14:04:48
Totally agree my star, however u seem to be overlooking e knows our songs.
Evan’s is very slow, will make proper look like Allan wells.
08 Jan 2025 14:06:32
I thought Propper was an experienced defender. just saying
clearly the Scottish game isn't for everyone.
08 Jan 2025 14:12:55
SWS, how many have came up here to 'cruise it' in our league for both Celtic and ourselves and came up short?
There is a long list, will start with Arron Ramsay and let others fill in the rest.
08 Jan 2025 14:47:03
Big dado I don't think Nsiala will start on Thursday. probably Propper and King if Sterling and Balogun injured.
08 Jan 2025 15:16:03
John, davie weir wasn't fast at all but his positional sense was excellent and that's the same with jonny evans mate ? Where propper is faster than evans for me isn't the thing, it's evans positional sense and ability is way superior than propper mate because evans like weir can read the game so well ?.
08 Jan 2025 15:19:37
This now should be about getting sorted for next season. Evans isn't the answer for next year.
08 Jan 2025 15:50:21
John you’re showing your age mate, Alan Wells ?.
08 Jan 2025 15:51:27
Evans would be a terrible signing, too old, too slow and would be on half decent wages even at his age. Either we get a decent enough young guy in our we give our younger guys the chance. Can't exactly do worse than what our current defence is doing.
08 Jan 2025 15:57:24
Probably correct angus but i'd like to see if he's got anything. King can't be far ahead of him surely?
08 Jan 2025 16:10:13
Coops ? correct
Johnny evans would be the best defender in Scotland. No doubts about that.
08 Jan 2025 16:35:05
Stevie that is just pure and utter bs no he wouldn’t not even close ?♂️ embarrassing post.
08 Jan 2025 17:08:33
I seem to remember Clement wants a young guy. Get him in now, whoever he is, he won't be perfect but will adjust in time for the start of next season. That makes sense.
08 Jan 2025 20:03:12
Dado given a conversation ion another thread I may well be wrong though and would be reasonably happy if I was.
