Think he's got a decent day job and unlikely to want to go full time. I don't think the lad would still be at Arbroath if that wasn't the case, but you never know. Certainly always looks the part.

Sounds like an Irish back 3, O’Brian, O’ Ware and O’ Connor. Imagine the reception at Ibrox! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont remember a clamour of thistle fans wanting to keep Nesbit.... that's football for you. Look at shankland and what he has done since being written off. Easy to be wise after the event. If Slater goes on to represent Scotland I'd be personally delighted. The same applies to any player who leaves us. Who knows maybe McGinty will go on to be an internationalist.

If you're asking about Nesbit, then I can't make a personal judgement as I never saw him play for Thistle. Going by accounts of fellow fans (including a few on here) and the player himself, he didn't make the most of his opportunity at Firhill though. If your question is about Craig Slater, then he's been unlucky with his injury and hasn't been able to force his way back in for a meaningful run of games under McCall, which has probably led to the parting of the ways. He's a decent player though (imo), and his attitude cannot be faulted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have kept him , played at a higher level than most of our players, played 70 odd times in the Premier League, been capped 10 times at u 21 level . There is obviously something there , I would imagine signing for Queens Park is just a stop gap to get playing time . Wonder if Accies fans are saying McKinnon couldn’t get a game for us but walks into the Partick Thistle first team Edited January 28, 2020 by jlsarmy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if Accies fans are saying McKinnon couldn’t get a game for us but walks into the Partick Thistle first team Harkins and miller have a far higher pedigree than craig I'm afraid, but they are going/gone. Obviously age a factor. Even Saunders has an international cap and he is on a shoogly peg. Most fans agree the window comings and goings look positive, but not all will be convinced of course. McCall is looking to the future not the past. He will either be a football genius or fail dramatically. Let's hope it's the former. Generally speaking are you in favour of the direction we are taking or not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
