cushynumber 25,178 Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 i despise Naismith more because of the interview. I would want Davis back because of his ability, but can't reconcile that with the disappointment when he left. All in all, I would rather we forgot about these people and moved in our own direction now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lloyd 10,756 Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 A midfield 3 of Mccrorie Mccarthur and Davis would be okay. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Specky Forum Organiser 64,530 Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 The guy was our captain and he abandoned us when we needed him the most, he is a disgrace. 3rd only to Naismith and Whittaker in the judas stakes.

LaudrupsPatrickBoots 13,510 Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 The only one out of all the ones that left that I would take back and it's only because he's miles ahead of what currently have in his position. And I mean he's miles ahead of them as in the player he is today, not the player he was when he left. I know some on the forum struggle to differentiate between the 2.

cushynumber 25,178 Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 is being a better footballer than the others that left a good enough reason to take him back? does self-respect go out the window if a person is EPL class? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southampton stumped up to just avoid the hassle. Davis is as bad as the rest. That said and I don't blame anyone that wants to have a go or shoot me down in flames, I'd take him back because he's a top, top player. Probably better player now than the one that left us and we need that sort of player in our central midfield i.e someone that can run with the ball, skip past a man, create a chance from nothing - our central midfielders are OK but they aren't Davis and they/we are too reliant on our wingers for any creativity instead of central midfielders going past a man or taking major responsibility in the final third. So for Davis, I'd swallow my pride and take him back because he's simply an outstanding footballer. I don't like it or what he did but the facts of the matter is he's a top player. Simple. Don't blame anyone who doesn't want him back for the obvious reasons. Totally respect that. Horrible that it’s come to the point we have to swallow our pride just to get a top player. Times have changed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkle 53,573 Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 We ( the club) need to stop looking backwards. They all left us when we needed them (some more acrimonious than others) and that should be the end of them as far as we are concerned. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Times have changed. Correct. So unless the likes of KIng comes good with his promise of 30-50 million quid on player investment, we need to take top talent where we can get it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably sums up my thoughts on the subject just about perfect that but I personally don't care what others think about that my point of view on this. I make no apology at all for the following. My thirst for 55 far outweighs my distaste for the manor of his departure in this particular instance. So there it it is. I know I don't speak for everybody but fuck it I think thats what the vast majority crave above all else now and there's no shame in that Imo. The signing of Stephen Davis would signifiy our intensions and you had better believe it would also put the cat right amongst the pigeons across the city. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leeds_Bear 8,110 Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Re-sign him and play him on the right like Walter did. Get Lafferty for left wing. Fuck it let's sign Beattie while we're at it.  Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inigo 32,526 Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Assuming Goss goes back, Rossiter is fucked and McCrorie is seen as a defender long term, we'll definitely need a midfielder. Even at 33, Davis would be a good option for a few years. We lack quality in midfield and we'd struggle to get someone of Davis' pedigree normally. I'd prefer a younger player, but it'd have to be a proper quality one to be preferable to Davis. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need an RM sliding scale of cuntishness. Naismith being a 10 cunt and Sandaza being a 1 cunt. I'd say Davis is a solid 5 cunt, but at 33 I have to agree with Murty. Also, do we need another CM?!

Inigo 32,526 Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Engine room options of Dorrans, Davis, Jack and Docherty would be pretty decent. With Holt as a backup to the backups. Lacks physical stature is the only thing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
