jags on tour Posted July 26, 2018 Report Share Posted July 26, 2018 (edited) Is Banzo only contracted until the end of August? It doesn’t sound like he’s going to be back by then, I wonder if he will get an extension until next year now, to re-re-re-re-prove his fitness? Lennox out for 8-10 weeks aswell, jeesus.

Hardly awe-inspired, but will provide cover for Penrice at LB, and also at LM. Wonder what the County fans thought of him? A County supporting friend tells me they were crazy not to try to get him back Edited July 26, 2018 by Duncan Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elevenone Posted July 26, 2018 Report Share Posted July 26, 2018 2 of Max’s 8 appearances for County have been against the Jags including the infamous 4-0 midweek mauling at Dingwall. Honestly don’t remember him however to be fair I have tried to erase all memory of that trip. Best of luck at Jags Max. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archies made it clear, he wants his full backs up n down the park. If the lads not up to doing that, then that's the way it goes. What you're not saying there is that Penrice bulking up has had an effect on his efficiency in speed and/or stamina. Folk on here were deriding Archie for not playing James in the latter part of last season.. Anybody who saw him play latterly for the U20s would realise his exclusion from the first team was down to fitness issues. Clearly that was the downside to his loan spell at Livingston where played extensively. Similar in a way to McCarthy after he bulked up over the summer of 2016. Andy rarely played 90 mins for us the season before last but as we know he came good. Temporary fitness problems is just the price we often have to pay to achieve a bit of excellence. Watching him this season it doesn't look to me that Penrice is too far from reaching that achievement. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yellow & Redneck Posted July 27, 2018 Report Share Posted July 27, 2018 Sena played for Pollock the other night in a pre-season game, so don't think that will be happening now. Have to say I am really disappointed in the pace in which players have been brought in this summer. Would have been nice to have them bedded in during the BetFred Cup games before the season proper gets underway. Need to hit the ground running in this division. C'mon Archie!

In seasons past, the call has always been, “We’ll know more once the English transfer window closes.” I wonder how the number of new faces this season - at this point in the calendar - compares with the last few seasons?

pink panther Posted July 27, 2018 Report Share Posted July 27, 2018 The Sena situation is complicated and is linked to a work permit issue. He originally arrived in Scotland on a family permit and still waiting for his own work permit which means he can only sign an amateur contract as this time. He will stay with Pollok until this is resolved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That lad couldn't get a permit but looked a real prospect. Iirc he played right centreback and right back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuart_adam Posted July 27, 2018 Report Share Posted July 27, 2018 Have to say growing tired of the Bannigan will be fit again in four weeks (sounds familiar) and I am also tired of us carrying injured players. We have been more than good enough to Bannigan, and its time we gave him a 6 month deal, pay as you play, to prove his fitness. Like it or not, its football. We cant afford to be the good guys and always carry passengers. Keeping injured players around is partly what got us in this mess in the first place. I have zero doubt that if fit Bannigan is a great player, but after 2 years out and injury again to the same knee, is he ever going to be fit? maybe im being cynical but I honestly feel, its time to move on, or give him a deal that works to our advantage. If he needs to earn a living, give him a coaching post or something, just don’t take it out the player budget if he is never going to be available for us.

Even if Banzo is clear of injury after the next four weeks, it will take months before he is even back to match fitness. Reminds me of the Liam Buchanan saga. "Four weeks, four weeks." And then just wasnt the same player when he came back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could you please expand on that just a little.? I don't get the connection between a routine win against the Binos and the subsequent Cup defeat to the club once known as Rangers.

Operating at the outer fringes of my memory, but have some vague recollection that Eaglesham did most of the legwork (cross/saved shot?) for the goal leaving Paul Keegan with an easy tap in which was well celebrated.

Off on a slight tangent from the subsequent poster, it was Eaglesham who went on a mazy run down the right before squaring it to Paul Keegan to almost miss from 2 yards out. Remember it quite clearly. We also relegated Stirling Albion that evening too. Edited July 28, 2018 by Yellow & Redneck 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
