Spiderpig Posted 23 hours ago Report Share Posted 23 hours ago After tonights performance I'd be offering Armstrong a contract, Big strong target man, puts himself about etc and has scored a few goals exactly what we have missed all season, him up top with Stamatelopoulos might be a good pairing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orinoco Posted 23 hours ago Report Share Posted 23 hours ago Armstrong got some decent service for a change which helped. He offers something, but maybe there is better out there. Watt would be ok as a 10 or attacker wide left. But we have Maswanhise for that, tho does not work as hard as Watt. AP did score goals, but suffered from lack of service.

He's a decent plan B. But we were up against ten men tonight, wouldn't base too much on that. What we should maybe take from tonight's game is that 352 is more effective than 3421 or whatever managers call it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grizzlyg Posted 21 hours ago Report Share Posted 21 hours ago Armstrong contracted till 2027 with Carlisle so imagine they would want a decent fee. Plenty of effort but I am not sure if it meant paying a big fee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yabba's Turd Posted 21 hours ago Report Share Posted 21 hours ago Don't know where else to put this so it's in here. Alexander = Mourinho Mourinho made more headlines when he was asked during a press conference why he had used a different starting XI in 31 games this season. “I have 25 coins, I throw the coins in the air. The ones that stay on the table are the ones that I play. The ones that go on the floor go on the bench. I do it just like this. During the week, I’m having fun," Mourinho said. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuwell2 Posted 20 hours ago Report Share Posted 20 hours ago On 5/13/2025 at 3:14 PM, Ya Bezzer! said: Getting paid at Scottish Premiership wage levels over a career probably still makes you richer than one big move at 18 and then disappearing into a big club youth system never to be seen again. The key is giving youth players first team opportunities and the chance to actually develop a professional career. If we do that we will retain quality youth players, perhaps not all of them but some of them and maybe even most of them. With increasing costs and dwindling support there is basically no long term future without youth development. It should be central in our medium to long term planning at the club. On your first point I’d give three examples off the top of my head Jake Hastie - a one trick pony who done well out of his move to Rangers and wouldn’t have been a first team choice at may premier teams so his move was great for him. Robbie Leitch - left us for Burnley after scoring and making a goal in the youth cup final when coming on as a substitute to then disappear into the Scottish lower league’s. Bailey Rice - chose Rangers over us and the jury is still out on that move. one made the correct move the one didn’t and the third we will have to wait and see in my view. The club made money from one, nothing from one and we will see about the third. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wellfan Posted 13 hours ago Report Share Posted 13 hours ago Armstrong has done well across his time with us and I certainly wouldn’t be upset if we were to sign him up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fergie79 Posted 12 hours ago Report Share Posted 12 hours ago Wimmer has said he has had to make a lot of compromises this season and been pretty clear he expects to play without compromise at start of next season....so reckon highly unlikely much more of out of contract or loan players will be here next season unless Wimmer has problems persuading his initial targets to come here.

joewarkfanclub Posted 12 hours ago Report Share Posted 12 hours ago On last nights evidence I would be trying to secure Seddon again next season. He is probably the best LB, LWB and LCB at the club and has looked pretty decent in all of those positions. Add into the fact that it has been a problem position for us and he seems like a pretty good sort to have around the place, it seems a no brainer to me. Only issue I would have would be his fitness as he hasnt been available to play much this season. However, I dont recall their being any issues with injuries previously, so maybe he was just a victim of the SK Hex! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Tony Watt is with us on a 1 year contract with an option of a further year I shall weep a river of tears that's throwing money down the toilet that could be used to bring in someone that will actually be useful on a weekly basis. Sorry we have retained enough it's now time to use resources on some fresh faces. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but he'll be a free agent in the summer. So he could feasibly sign on with us if he wants to stay and Wimmer wants him to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that but he is out of contract soon enough he has been beating the Motherwell have first dibs drum it's a no value in it transfer. Would rather we sign an Armstrong esk I seen more from him last night than I have seen from Watt all season. Armstrong or Armstrong like player and Stam forward pairing actually has me excited for next season think it might work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Wispy Flossy Posted 9 hours ago Report Share Posted 9 hours ago In my opinion we shouldn’t be signing anyone current at the club and not contracted for next season. We already have a first team squad numbers wise signed up and that many deficiencies the manager will need budget to bring at least 4 players who will improve the starting line up. None of the uncontracted players do that for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted 8 hours ago Author Report Share Posted 8 hours ago I’d like to believe the manager isn’t making decisions off the back of one good game, or even a handful. It should be more about whether a player suits the style he’s building. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeyin Posted 5 hours ago Report Share Posted 5 hours ago I see Lewis Ferguson captained Bologna to their Coppa Italia victory last night. Combine that with Max Johnston being a regular starter for a Sturm Graz side that looks odds on to win another League title, and McTominay and Gilmour with the (very slight) edge in the Serie A title chase, I can only hope Miller takes that as inspiration for a move abroad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
