Watching League 1 highlights on ITV I would disagree. Our loanee from Bristol City was there last season and said it was all hoof it forward. Some great players in SPL 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birmingham and Huddersfield being two prime examples. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimJams Posted 27 August Share Posted 27 August 3 hours ago, ian__marshall said: Feels like a lazy loan move from the club. If he has aspirations of playing regular PL football the lad needs time in the Championship. Not sure why the club should be seeking guaranteed starts either, if he can't force his way into a championship midfield at the age of 20 based on his ability, the reality is he'll probably struggle to break into our side. Look at how many young players of a similar age are playing PL football at virtually every club in the league. Yes some are especially talented but like it or not that is the level he needs to get to if he wants to compete in this league so should be using this time to prepare himself for the step up, whether that be physically, mentally or both. Surely you have him at Dundee this season, then next season his champ move is probably back to us. In which case that's a positive from a negative. And if we stay up there's options to loan again or bring him in, as well as extending. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aberdeen on the other hand has gone down the shitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Far more likely to pick up a serious non contact injury on artificial pitches.

RowlattsFox Posted 27 August Share Posted 27 August If he's as good as people seem to think then surely he's had plenty of interest from English clubs? Seems a strange choice of destination. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BKLFox Posted 28 August Share Posted 28 August Very surprised we didn’t see another contract extension prior to him going, he will spend 1yr in SCO then only have 1yr remaining on his current deal this could come back to bite us 🤷♂️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
