Danny 0 Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Latest blog; given this has been a topic of fierce debate, I thought I'd knock up a pros and cons conversation about it all. http://ibroxnoise.blogspot.com/2011/12/buoyed-or-not-by-boyd.html PS: The design is not final, it has been simplified and will be redone in due course. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig 5,199 Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Couple of points Danny... 1. Well written as usual 2. Not as "busy" of a blogspot 3. Not sure you could consider Lennon's comments as "registering interest". More that he agreed he is a proven goalscorer and his Gers background wouldnt put Lennon off signing him 4. In the same way you like to point out spelling errors to others.... Nottingham's football team is "Forest"... not "Forrest" (ala James of Celtic)..... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny 0 Posted December 23, 2011 Author Share Posted December 23, 2011 Couple of points Danny... 1. Well written as usual Ta 2. Not as "busy" of a blogspot I have offers to have it remedied into something final 3. Not sure you could consider Lennon's comments as "registering interest". More that he agreed he is a proven goalscorer and his Gers background wouldnt put Lennon off signing him I'd have expected a more robust rejection of the notion tbh. 4. In the same way you like to point out spelling errors to others.... Nottingham's football team is "Forest"... not "Forrest" (ala James of Celtic)..... I was just testing the semantic crowd... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
54andcounting 0 Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 .... Nottingham's football team is "Forest"... not "Forrest" (ala James of Celtic)..... Funny that,...Forrest is more famous than Forest who won TWO European Cups 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darthter 542 Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Good article.... However, one of your "downsides" is that he only scores against "poorer" opposition...... obviously something that the team doesn't need, coz we've been absolutely bangin' them in against Hibs, St Mirren etc!!! Its obvious that Boyd does have his faults....but at the moment, if Jellyfish is out (for any reason), we will struggle for goals. Lafferty can be a decent goal scorer, but he's not consistent. Healy has a proven record, yet never been given a run in the team. Hemmings is seemingly out with a knee injury fro a good while, and obviously Naisy won't be available anytime soon. For all his lack of mobility/effort etc, Boyd did bring vital goals to the team, which can lift the spirits of the other 10 Gers on the pitch. There is a risk that he doesn't re-live his pas glories, but unless a calculated gamble is taken, we'll never know. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tumshie RFC 0 Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 If Boyd was brought in to enhance the squad then I would welcome him back but if he was brought in as a replacement for Jelavic then I would be absolutely raging 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
