That's a CV of someone you don't need...

Didn't Sam Foley have an horrendous relegation record too at one time ?

Very generous of you 😁

Will Ruari Paton be back in the fold?

I know i'll get pelters but I think Ojo is a good player; its wasn't that long ago when he was getting rave reviews on here.  As Hppers said - he was in a sh!te team last year and everyone was having a lousy time.

Have to agree, though, with Crossdale, Garetty, Byers and Walters he'd be 5th choice at best...

Time to go

Got a feeling he'll be surplus , whilst we could argue he never had a proper chance is he going to cut it at League one if we go up?

I'm not so sure myself and that would be a shame. Also a shame for the lad not to be involved now with us at this exciting time and just getting splinters in his ass at Tannadice. 

My feeling is that Ruari would suit the better standard of football we are playing now, and will be necessary in L1.  Early season, the ball was just being banged up to the front in the hope that it might just stick.  Our football now is a different level to the early season.

Just thinking the same thing DB - I think his style would work better in league 1 than where we are now - personally, I dont think he will have the chance to show it as likely he will be off - but id love him to stay and be given a fair crack 🙏🙏🙏

Quite, even if I took a kindly view of his record, look at who he's competing against at the Vale... Sorry but adios.

Croasdale won't play next year if we get promoted.

Thats a very sweeping statement, care to tell us why?

Is that based on the fact that Stockport let him go when they went up? 
He’s been fantastic and is integral to our team. For me, he and Tolaj will probably be the first two names on the team sheet.

At the very worst he deserves a chance in League 2, rather than being written off. We have used him in a completely different role to Stockport.  I can see why they didn't want him as the central holding player as his distribution can be poor. Walters is better than him already in that respect.

Have to say I’m glad he didn’t come back. Not the worst player but with interviews like these ones he keeps doing seems a very self serving individual. Frankly he doesn’t get in over any of our existing midfielders in any case. My guess he’ll be transfer listed or loaned out somewhere like Tranmere if Croz gets it permanently.

On subject of loanees Diamond Edwards now returned from his loan not that I think he has much future here either. Worth a punt but it’s not worked.

We signed 2 players from Academies and one John has been a real find,the other Edwards as you say hasn't worked so yes signing players released from an Academy is worth a punt in the hope we uncover another John

The problem is, who would you drop to get him in the side. Tolaj? definitely not. Stockley? I think you need his or Curtis alongside Tolaj for their ariel presence. He would be in the same position as he was earlier in the season as a bit part player coming on as a sub.
