alanmidd 0 Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 Highly rumoured to be joining on a bosman as McGregor's back up. Don't see the point. Think we'd be better going for someone who is going to push McGregor for his place, not happily sit on the sidelines 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laudbertz 0 Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 Killie have a Graeme Smith too? I remember we had a GK by that name we let go to Motherwell last season, before MacGregor played this season i thought that guy was a much more promising player than him. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gribz 743 Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 And I'll 3rd that motion. But i hope this is silly season again, we need a bigger and better keeper 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,151 Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 Good young goalie actually... I'd prefer we brought in someone like him than a more experienced guy who would probably be quite happy to do a Klos. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
juffery 0 Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 Definately think we need someone with a bit of experience. If we want youth we've got Robinson. Pointless signing another youngster to sit on the bench. Maybe it's gonna be joint deal with Naismith along the lines of sports socks, 5 pairs for a pound! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see where you're coming from but surely the experienced keeper who is prepared to play back up would want a decent wage compared to a young Scot. I really don't think it would make financial sense to bring in a keeper above McGregor as he would leave and then in another season or two we'd be looking for another high quality expensive purchase. Bringing in an experienced keeper as back up would make you feel more comfortable if AM got injured, but that has to be weighed up against the expense of having an experience player picking up wages for warming the bench. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think thats pretty much what Frankie was saying mate. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ascender 352 Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 I don't think we can afford to bring in a keeper who is significantly better than McGregor. i.e. an established international number 1. So having a younger number 2 makes sense IMO. Although we do seem to have a few young keepers on the books now. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
