    Yeah was a strange signing as he was never gonna be good enough to take over from Hart which should of been priority when signing keeper last year

    I notice he is Down Under with his Mrs but we aren't getting hourly updates on her Instagram. I wonder if Brendan had a word about keeping it professional on social media if he wants to make a good impression and get back in the match day squad. Lets face it he should be our no 2 but something rubbed both Ange and Brendan up the wrong way.

    Who cares tbh. Bain seems to be the preferred back up and Hart is number 1. I'll be surprised if we see him play for us again.

    I presume he cares. He is a better keeper than Bain but we can and should be looking to upgrade both.

    Well he was going for free and he is a decent keeper so i can see why he was signed.

    Probably a better shot stopper than Bain but that's about it. I was never convinced by him even at Dundee Utd. Thought we needed to aim a lot higher

    I'd rather we just * them off by signing quality players that will improve our team rather than signing bang average pish to sit on their * for 3 years picking up thousands of pounds

    He got injured at a bad time fairly early on and lost his place, had a somewhat falling out during his recovery I think as well

    I think a bit of style as well in that he's more a stopper.than a sweeper.

    Only signed him because he's a handsome big guy.

    We signed him as back up, and probably so the Huns wouldn’t sign him if we’re being honest :56:

    if he is better then why is Bain number 2? He's a mince keeper and id say keepers of his level should only be signed if home grown so they don't take up European squad space.
