Mediocre Pundit Posted September 1, 2015 Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 Apparently signed on loan from Dundee United until January. A bit out of the blue but should give us a good option up front - fast and direct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarencegarter Posted September 1, 2015 Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 Very surprised at that. Seems a decent player and they paid 150k for him only a few months ago. Now an attacking mid in and a full back and hopefully we can turn our season around! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Murray Posted September 1, 2015 Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 That looks a very good signing. Very happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mediocre Pundit Posted September 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 If Saunders could stay fit, and if previous injuries haven't taken too much of a toll, he would be a decent signing. Those are two big ifs though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lindau Posted September 1, 2015 Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 Muirhead is a great signing, though it's a bit strange that Und are loaning him out to us, given the amount of players they have shipped recently. Always looked good anytime I have seen him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaggernaut Posted September 1, 2015 Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 Looks good. Presumably he won't be allowed to play for us against the Arabs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Dastardly Posted September 1, 2015 Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 Is Saunders more of a central defender than a rightback ? I know that he has played both, but what we need most is a fullback (unless Hendry is off to Everton) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Passenger Posted September 1, 2015 Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 (edited) Saunders is made of glass. We were linked with him a couple of years ago. Seem to remember his signing for County being greeted by sighs of relief. Edited September 1, 2015 by Dark Passenger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Scimmia Rossa Posted September 1, 2015 Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 Muirhead is a great signing, though it's a bit strange that Und are loaning him out to us, given the amount of players they have shipped recently. Always looked good anytime I have seen him. I gave up trying to work out what Utd are doing. Lost the plot. Good news for us though. That's a cracking signing.

Norgethistle Posted September 1, 2015 Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 Good footballer, and really nice guy (I'm good friends with his Dad over here) He has the speed and shooting from distance we could need, can also play as the link up between midfield and attack (where he plays for Scotland U19) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleeding Gums Murphy Posted September 1, 2015 Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 Good footballer, and really nice guy (I'm good friends with his Dad over here) He has the speed and shooting from distance we could need, can also play as the link up between midfield and attack (where he plays for Scotland U19) Like to see him as the link player off Pogba. Stevo coming in off the left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lindau Posted September 1, 2015 Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 A quick look at Pie and Bovril shows that the Und fans are raging at McNamara loaning him out to us. Jackie doesn't have his troubles to seek at the moment....lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagfox Posted September 1, 2015 Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 Looks good. Presumably he won't be allowed to play for us against the Arabs. Probably not But on a positive point his first game will be against Dundee and DAB players love a goal against the Dees Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lady-isobel-barnett Posted September 1, 2015 Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 Looks a good loan signing. He's at an age where he needs to be playing and he's already established in the top league so makes sense McNamara sending him out to us. That's assuming McNamara was only going to use the lad sparingly in the months ahead. Could also be a confidence thingy. Been evident in the games we've been playing we've not been making many goal chances. By all accounts if Muirhead doesn't chip in with goals himself he'll create the chances for others. Pity he'll miss two games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThickAsThieves Posted September 1, 2015 Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 Shame it's only until January. Seems a good prospect with a bit of versatility in the forward positions - although he prefers to play as a striker, there's no reason he can't get ahead of Doolan and Pogba in the pecking order.

Alan Murray Posted September 1, 2015 Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 Might be one or two going out on loan if we are bringing in two more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lindau Posted September 1, 2015 Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 If we could get Stanton in and a full back/centre half if Jack does go, it would be a good transfer window for Archie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy Incognito Posted September 1, 2015 Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 Sounds like a bit of a coup. I'm surprised at Utd letting him go too, he is a highly rated youngster if it is the same lad I'm thinking of. Then again, it does seem like a madhouse around Tannadice way at the moment! I mind Muirhead scoring against us when he was playing for the tractor drivers a couple of seasons ago - a last minute equaliser for them, IIRC.

Boyd has his penalty saved by Gallacher and again no one from us followed up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
