Scott Robertson

He's had good fortune in his career so far, here's hoping Robertson will be particularly jammy for the Bees
 

Scott Robertson

I can't answer for anyone but I read it as if Ipswich offer the same terms and same length of contract, do you think he'd choose us over them. If he chooses us then surely we've added something that they haven't, maybe an extra year, a hotel until he finds his feet, a night with Kettering Bee or a Smiffy burger everytime he scores......the list is endless but few footballers would go for a League One outfit if a Championship club really went out to get them, would they?

Similar to Donaldson. He had interest from a couple of clubs in the Championship but chose us :)
 

Scott Robertson

It was the way it read as if like for like he would chose us. I would be delighted if he signed but won't kid myself that we held off a host of Championship clubs
 

Scott Robertson

Has he been at training? Anyone been down there spot him? He's ginger and wears a kilt and carries a deep fried mars bar in a Gregg's carrier bag.

My HP bottle bro in law told me he's joining Ipswich !!
 

Scott Robertson

Do we need him?? We've already got Douglas, Forshaw, Dave, Reeves & Oyeleke (potentially).. Wouldn't our budget be better spent on a CB, LB, and another forward??

I definately would like to see another midfielder. We're probably looking at using three in midfield on many occasions and excluding Reeves and Oyeleke at this stage, that only leaves the three you have mentioned. I reckon Kevin O'Connor could spend a fair bit of his playing time providing an alternative option to Logan at right-back.

Assuming that Woodman goes/Bidwell or someone else comes in (probably on loan), it's the centre-back position that concerns me most. I really don't think Dean and Legge complement each other that well and I hope that the next arrival is a central defender.

The rest (hopefully) - midfielder and another striker - can follow in due course.

Your forgetting sicknote and Saunders.

We do not have a leader and box to box runner and tackler and I think KOC will be seen as a RB more than a MF
 

Scott Robertson

Although they both have fantastic potential, I don't think Forshaw is any better than Reeves currently from what I saw last season. With that in mind I hope we're looking for another central midfielder, otherwise we'll lack experience. Hopefully Reeves and Oyeleke can go out on loan, leaving 3 from 5 to play in central midfield when we play the diamond out of Douglas, Diagouraga, O'Connor, Forshaw + New. I think that would also leave us well covered at right-back with Logan, KO'C and Dean (assuming we sign another centre-back).
 

Scott Robertson

We'd miss him, not box to box but gd tackler, gd in the air and always happy to receive the ball

Miss him yes, but not a leader. He is the first one to disappear when we are up against it - sadly! Really thought he would be a leader, but now think he needs a leader along side him to make him play through the though times

That's a bit harsh, maybe not a leader but he carried a very unsettled, unbalanced midfield last year. When the diamond formation worked towards the end of the year he looked a class act and one of the best midfielders we've had for years but he needs support from a box to box midfielder.

Couldn't agree more

I thought this tread was about Scott Robertson not Jonathan Douglas . So do we know if he is signing or not Robertson that is.
 

Scott Robertson

Keith told me he wasn't signing on Monday, over a cold cheese n onion pasty + a king size yorkie at the Texaco.
He's been spot on so far this season, Keith ( 2 out of 2 for me )
 

Scott Robertson

He IS signing. But is he signing for us?
 

Scott Robertson

Aaaaah he was probably just heading back to Scutlund to get some scag and neeps before returning to training the noo.

Article in the Chronny saying this one is dead in the water. Move on.
