Always looked half knackered to me and that had the effect of making himself look disinterested.
But as we often go back for former loan players I wouldn’t be surprised if we offer him something.
Not only would he go missing in games, but when he would try he’d go over the top and end up getting booked.
He likes to run around after the ball for about 30 seconds and then just gives up.
Can't really remember any game where I thought he stood out. Was one of those players where I'd literally forget he was on the pitch - having said that with a question mark over Sercs it might make sense 🤔

For anyone on here with Sky Sports Football, you can watch Brian Graham strutting his stuff for Partick Thistle now.
They’re winning 3-0 on aggregate btw. Celtic and Rangers await them next season.

The two injuries seriously impacted Taylor Perry’s two seasons here. He’s still only 21 so possibly still lots of potential for development.

Freestone and Bonds were both underwhelming until they were 22/23 and them blossomed. If he’s relatively cheap, I’d give him a go.

Partick’s turn to be cannon fodder next season then.

Spoke too soon. It’s 3-3 on aggregate now.
Nine minutes of injury time coming up.

Tidy ground btw at Ross County. Whaddon Rd could look a lot like like that with the right vision and investment.

Jordan Tillson also playing for Ross County.

From the camera angle, it looks like FGR's ground with the terracing behind each goal and big stand along the side. I'm assuming the side the camera is on is actually the main stand though and not an open terrace.

Jack Butland off to Scotland with Rangers and Rob Dickie more locally to Bristol City apparently.

Very doubtful. We’ve got two left (wing) backs already.

terrible game though! Reminded me why I hate watching Prem/European football. Get sick of all the cheating and constant hassling the referee..

TBF it was the Italian fans attacking them before the game, but yes, disgusting behaviour chucking missiles at a player trying to take a corner..

The same player who later gave away a penalty and then played Bowen onside for the winner. No doubt there are a few West Ham fans who think what they did helped them win the trophy.

Probably. We only won the World Cup because of West Ham after all.

Dillon Phillips and Tom Sang released from Cardiff. Conor Wickham too.

I'd take all 3 if we could

Very little chance. Championship wages are way above what we can afford.

Based on career trajectories all 3 could be dropping down a division and Sang hasn't had many games for Cardiff so it's not totally unrealistic

Didn’t Duff try to sign Sang on loan last season ??

According to rumours in the press he did but Sang went to St Johnstone. Dillon was in Belgium. I'm still backing Ham Town. If/when Alfie goes we might have some money in the budget.

When Alfie goes any money in the budget needs to be spent on a goalscoring replacement.

Won't get too much if the figures being kicked about are correct

Apparently us and Bristol Rovers were also interested in him.
Not sure how serious that was and could be just lazy journalism because of the geographical proximity to Cardiff.
Think his roots are on Merseyside.

I didn’t think he was too bad as a RWB, certainly showed a bit of potential.
