Is that tom davies formerly of everton?


In the comments on FB someone says it isn`t.

The formerly of Everton Tom Davies is now at Sheffield United. There`s another who is 33 and was last at Tranmere.

`Why is it offensive to call someone a Djokotard?"

Are you serious? Is it acceptable to call people retards?

Silly comment.

My guess would be he didn’t put the two together rather than thinking it’s ok to use that word. Assume the best, not the worst!

Can you not just start a thread in off topic and put this petty pihs patter in there?

St J have signed a prolific gs from the welsh league. Seems to be highly rated but difficult to judge how well he will do over here.


Louis Lloyd - watched him play for Caernarfon v Newtown back in October. Looked decent but the standout player on the pitch that day was Josh Lock for Newtown. 21 year old TNS attacking midfielder. Ironically, got loaned to Caernarfon in January after his stint finished at Newtown. Looked like he could move up in the game, suppose needs to establish himself at TNS first who are obviously head and shoulders above the rest of the Welsh League.


Ahh interesting. I wonder if it’s a league we have looked at. Probably pick them up for pretty nominal fees.


Declan McManus went to TNS for about 70k according to Transfermarkt, and looking at his numbers (132 games, 95 goals, 26 assists) he’s clearly been banging them in for fun. He`s just made the move to Coleraine now but it does make you wonder.

Some folk are quick to turn their noses up at the Welsh league or the Irish Premiership, but goals are goals and if they’ve got the attitude and fitness to step up, why not take a punt?

Especially given the market we’re in, we’re not going to be spending six figures. A proven finisher like McManus at the right age and price is exactly the type we should be targeting. That level’s no walk in the park either physical, tight games, similar in ways to what we face week to week.

It’s the sort of deal smart clubs make. Let other teams be snobby about it – if they’re scoring goals and fit the system, bring them in.

Did we not just sign a guy from the Northern Irish Premier League? And we apparently paid a six figure fee.

Here is the latest group at the PFA trials in England:-



Quite surprised to see Angus Gunn in there.

Nicky Clark Signed for Ross County on 1 year deal


Not sure this really improves them, but does it signal the end of Hale’s time there??

A lot of (Pie & Bovril) rumours state that he was a really bad egg in the dressing room and was behind a lot of unsettling rumours during his time at St.Johnstone.

When I have seen him play, since leaving us, he doesn’t seem to have the legs anymore. I know TV can be deceiving, but he looks totally done.

Wouldn’t be the signing I’d want, but it’s another that’s sure to boost the Ross County wage bill, and he may even be an extra player to keep GMS company in the stand 😂

Eamonn Brophy must be really out of favour at Ross County. I remember we were linked with him when James McPake was manager. I see he`s still only 29.

How many games did he manage for Falkirk last season? Was it one? Think he’s done.

The last couple of years hasn`t been great football wisefor us to say the least, but I can say the players have been decent guys, honest professionals trying their best.

In the not too distant past we`ve had our share of toxic personalities, grown men with ruinous habits etc.

I would like to continue with doing our diligence on the players we bring in.

I don`t know Nicky Clark, he did well for us, for all I know he could be a decent enough guy, but playing wise he`s done, we`ve missed out on nothing,

I’m not sure if Clark will still have goals in him at this level or not. It’s a gamble.

He was a decent penalty box striker when we had him although offered precious little else. Sort of player that was fine if you are controlling games, getting plenty balls into them.

Interested to see if he is still as dangerous in the box, I hope he isn’t.

Yeah I’d agree with that. I’d actually take McManus back in a heartbeat. There will likely be a good few gems in those leagues, such as Kearney. Though I’ve obviously only seen highlights and a short cameo vs hearts, I’ve got a really good feeling about him. A similar type of player on the left would be perfect!

You would have thought the Irish premiership would roughly roughly have been a similar level to the Scottish championship 🤷🏻‍♂️ I certainly wouldn’t turn my nose up at any player because they were playing in a lesser known league/nation. Everyone has to start somewhere

With Kearney arriving thats RWB done with KRH as back up- the midfield sorted ( Lennon says so) - Otoo as LWB ( lennon says so) and I assume Ngwenway as back up ... I think we can expect:
1st team keeper ( strong pedigree) plus a back up
1 striker of note
Seasoned CH as its a young defence
and we are done

If still here Fisher and we get a CH then out on loan
Sutherlands out on loan
Andrew Tod on loan with a view to January being game fit

We could end up looking at Archie Mair? Former Scotland U-21 GK who has been at Norwich with a few loan spells. Him and Tobi would be good competition for the No.1

Not sure I would take McManus back, worked his socks off but was never prolific and took the wrong option loads with us. Looking at his record in the Scottish championship he has 28 goals in 160 games so it’s a level he’s hardly excelled at.

Ripped the Welsh league up though, to me that suggests the league is poorer rather than him improving. It’s maybe more the equivalent of league 1 level.

Coventry who’s creating our goals and chances from the centre of the park this season? Gilmour, Oakley and amade are more defensive. Lennon tried to get Easton, he knows he need quality in there to unlock defences.

The post below replying to me is by one of .nets finest champions of mediocrity!

Lennon isn’t ruling out the possibility of a return of Victor Wanyama. Goalie we currently have on trial is from Bournemouth https://www.removepaywall.com/search?url=https://www.dunfermlinepress.com/sport/25322978.dunfermline-neil-lennon-victor-wanyama-aims-add-experience/


Going to hazard a guess that the goalie may be Callan McKenna, formerly of Queens Park.

We love Dunfermline We do!

"We’re still looking for a striker, a centre-half and wing-back, but we`re in the middle of July, so I know two or three weeks away from the season starting in the league, but that`s plenty of time to get the players in"

In addition to the goalie Lennon mentioned the above.
