    McGregor has been far more productive for us.

    neither are good enough though.

    Seems a decent chap but he is not yet at the standard required by our once great club,and the same goes for most of the squad.

    McGregor is a CAM or even CM, you can tell he doesn't like playing out wide. When he has played this season though he has always tried to do something getting involved but definitely not enough quality to be near our 1st team.

    Seeing what signing for us meant to the guy i think he is one fan who is maybe feeling a bit overwhelmed by it all, now its starting to sink in what playing for the club you support is like.

    Hope he can turn it round.

    He looked like he didn't want to be out there on Saturday though. Couldn't get rid of the ball quick enough. Looks totally devoid of confidence, surprising considering how he looked 3/4 months back. Wonder if there's something going on in the background, maybe some personal issues. Hope it turns round for him.

    Its the one thing that makes me think its not all happy happy behind closed doors....the lack of (give a *) by the team during some games.


    But then we have players signing new contracts and praising the manager....so i just don't * know.:smiley-laughing002:

    Loan him out to a championship in England side,if he can't do well their either then punt him. I was happy when we signed him hoping to see some of these tricks n * during games but he's been really poor.

    Knew he was an SPL level player when he signed but was pleasantly surprised with the initial impact he made. Perhaps now just levelling out.

    Know know's he might get back on track, look at how Forrest is back in fashion after being written off for so long.

    Wingers are never consistent, he was well known for being inconsistent at United so just need to find a way to get him going again and maintain a level of performance. When in form he is a quality winger that will add goals & assists.

    Inconsistency is being good one week awful or non-existent the next. He has been non-existent for 3 months, that's just called being *.

    I think he is. Pretty sure he spoke about being at games in his first interview when we signed him

    Know a few guys from Thurso, heavy hun land. Obviously very well known up there and apparently was a Rnagers fan when he was younger but can never be certain about these things. Aye definitely a Hibs fan.

    We always get these rumours. I don't care either way but he's openly said what he is/was and he must be the happiest hun I've ever seen to pull on the hoops:56:

    As for him this season, if he doesn't shape up then I'd loan him away in January. I don't mean this in a bad way but I kinda hope it is a personal/behind the scenes issue, as we then know he'll be back.....i for one don't want, or we can't afford the luxury of guy's like this cutting about, making zero impact for 3/4 month's at a time..

    They're different up there though. Very unlike deepest darkest Ayrshire and Ards!
