Greg Taylor

I'd be happy if he signed and was happy to play back up. I'd expect he would get a lot more gametime than Ralston - if we get into champions league groups I think 20 games a season wouldn't be unreasonable to expect.

Realistically he isn't getting the biggest games if KT is fit, however realistically KT isn't going to be fit for all the big games!

 

I'd imagine whoever is back up to KT to play a lot. I think he will be fairly well protected. In fact I'd expect the back up to come on most games they didn't start.

 

Completely agree.

Whoever is number two left back after the summer window is going to have to be decent as they'll be called on a lot.

They'd probably need to be of Taylor's quality.

Shame that Taylor is threatened with Tierney's arrival and is now looking to move on. He'd have been a perfect deputy, but it is a demotion. He's been lucky we haven't scouted properly in that area for years.

 

As things stand, LB is something that the club does have options at in terms of back up, with Anderson and Frame both there - both of which have been vrafting pretty good reps so far and are 20 and 18 respectively, and not to forget Montgomery also, who admittedly has had his injury concerns of his own, but he is also only 22 himself, and the club haven't written him off or released him etc for a reason.

Certainly, none of which are ready to be considered as first choice, and not saying that the club could look to strengthen in that position as a back up to KT, but there are a few options there with another year of football under their belt, so will be curious to see what the club and BR are thinking in terms of a secondary LB for next season.

 

If Schlupp does well, we'll maybe look to extend his stay..

Get Anderson a loan in Scotland in the top division and send Frame to Austria in his place.

 

And looking to * off cause it's the first sign of serious competition for his place

 

Steady player but in all honesty, happy for him to move on. Steady, but to many times he has looked the weak link. Tierney is undoubtedly an upgrade, just need another decent lb too, maybe schlupp, maybe not - who knows

 

Not really fair... Every player that's come in there's a section of the fans immediately said it was an upgrade and he'd thankfully be benched, but he saw them all off. Not even close, either...

But with Tierney it's different, because he's adored by the fanbase. After years of it, going against a player who is better and has all the fans behind him. Not too difficult to see why he'd either want the money or to move on to be 1st choice elsewhere

 

Not really, he’d be very aware that Tierney usual amount of games being available leaves plenty of games for him.

Before then we signed Bernabei for £4m or so, he easily seen off that competition but at the time we all assumed with that outlay he was coming into the first team. * going back to Boli the same.

Tierney’s clearly better and if fit will play, but not the first competition for him and one that leaves plenty of games for him.

 

Suffered from a lack of competition and feel he’* his limit. More than happy having him here as competition/option with tierney next season, he gets a raw deal a fair bit but for Scotland, he’s more than good enough.

 

New bathroom looks good

 

Nice one, always wanted to see where Taylor takes his jobby

 

For * sake Crow, you've posted some irrelevant * over this years but this might take the crown

 

What's the betting Taylor is a multi millionaire now.?
He can afford this luxury.
