DUFCFAN Posted June 3, 2017 Report Share Posted June 3, 2017 (edited) Packs a great direct free kick No he doesn't, he scored a couple of them in the space of two or three weeks, about 18 months ago and hasn't even come close since. We've not had anyone that could be described as packing a great free kick since Barry Robson left us. What's the story with the boy Welsh from you guys? I see he's out of contract and remember him looking pretty decent whenever we've played you, is he gonna be offered a new deal, or is he getting punted?

I see he's out of contract and remember him looking pretty decent whenever we've played you, is he gonna be offered a new deal, or is he getting punted? Welsh has been released. He was a contender for our player of the season prior to picking up an injury. I've heard it's his recovery time after picking up an injury that's a problem rather then simply being injury prone. We've stuck by Sean in previous seasons when he's being injured so that's not the reason he's been released, more a case of having too many central midfielders under contract. Welsh is a quality player, good on the ball with both excellent distribution and positional sense. He was a key player in our promotion season and I'm sure he'd be more than a useful player for United. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandy Posted June 4, 2017 Report Share Posted June 4, 2017 I'd take Akinfenwa (the Beast) as a high-impact sub up front beside Dools on a 1-year contract. Scares the bejesus out of defences with his size. Think Wycombe are releasing him at end his 1-year there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scares the bejesus out of defences with his size. Think Wycombe are releasing him at end his 1-year there? Archie has his system. it's worked for him and he's unlikely to change it anytime soon. However, a system where Dools is less isolated with a fit back-up of a couple players who can chip in 8-10 a season would be good Edited June 4, 2017 by Barney Rubble Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Bunny Posted June 8, 2017 Report Share Posted June 8, 2017 Only loosely connected to the topic but didn't want to start a new thread: I know some folk won't want to pay for the Jagzone option but if you have already but haven't looked for a while, there are some very good interviews with Dools, Archie, Maxie and Gereeee up on the site now (well this last week or so). Well worth watching. Latest by Gerry B is about our youth system. All of them 3-parters so in depth. (No I don't get commission on hits, I have to pay like anyone else). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marco77 Posted June 9, 2017 Report Share Posted June 9, 2017 Oxford are the latest club to be interested in Lindsay. Reports in the Evening Times of a bid that we rejected. Certainly feel he could play at a higher level that League 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rid Skwerr Posted June 9, 2017 Report Share Posted June 9, 2017 A decent acknowledgement by the club of the fantastic contribution made by these guys. A seat on the board, surely, can't be far behind...... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BowenBoys Posted June 9, 2017 Report Share Posted June 9, 2017 That is terrific. Yes indeed. Good to know it's appreciated. In a club our size, we clearly do make a difference. Well done and big thanks to all who contributed money, time & inspiration. Nice plug for the forum too, it may bring some new members to enhance the community. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jags on tour Posted June 9, 2017 Report Share Posted June 9, 2017 might be from the same source but seen us linked twice with Stelios Demetrious of St Mirren and Jordon Forster at Hibs. Forster is a cb/rb, Stelios is a lb, athough one of the sources has since said Stelios has signed a new 1 yr contract with St Mirren, I imagine both rumours are alot shite but nothing much else is happening! Big Tam C and Callum B might persuade Forster if he is actually a target. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yellow & Redneck Posted June 9, 2017 Report Share Posted June 9, 2017 I assume now that Archie has missed out on the three players he had supposedly offered deals to when we finished in the Top-6? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandbank boy Posted June 10, 2017 Report Share Posted June 10, 2017 I assume now that Archie has missed out on the three players he had supposedly offered deals to when we finished in the Top-6? Yes, sounds as if nothing happened although I hope I'm wrong. So much for being able to attract players when we are top six. No blame on Archie, I'm sure if the club was able to sign them they would have done so by now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaggernaut Posted June 10, 2017 Report Share Posted June 10, 2017 Yes, sounds as if nothing happened although I hope I'm wrong. So much for being able to attract players when we are top six. No blame on Archie, I'm sure if the club was able to sign them they would have done so by now. Those two embarrassing horsings we suffered at the end of the season might just have made us look a bit less attractive to players with other options.

scotty Posted June 10, 2017 Report Share Posted June 10, 2017 Great job by Phil and top marks to the club for the acknowledgment on the official site. What would get them real praise would be a permanent link to the forum. (though if you've tried to find the link to Jagzone recently, that may not be much of a benefit!)
