waltzer83 27 Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 What's happening here with the lad? He was deemed not to be trusted under walter last year ie hardly got a sniff! And find it absolute baffling that he got a new contract a know we were short in numbers but what's the point? Am going to be honest and say the few times he did appear last season he wasn't that bad so what's going on? Anyone shed any light as to why he's still here and again getting completely overlooked even to come off the bench! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterD 7,436 Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Honestly don't know why we kept him on when he isn't getting any chancesHe will get a wee run out against Chelsea then that will be him for a while probably Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrangemouthRSC 832 Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Should be given a chance,but dunno why they offered him a new deal,unless didnt expect Hemmings 2 play as well in pre-season.He will get a run out 2morro hopefully Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck_Fickens 425 Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 He's just here to make up the numbers but, at the same time, he certainly has talent and the ability to come on and change a game. Deserves a chance, even if it's just a Nacho Novo type role. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amac9 2,060 Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 I think we all knew that he was not going to feature a lot but I was at least expecting him to have got some game time by now.Hearts - Needed a goal. Didn't get on.Malmo FF - Needed a goal. Didn't get on.St Johnstone - Could have got some game time the final 15 minutes.Malmo FF - Needed a goal. Didn't get on.I think the fact Hemmings got on before him in Malmo when we needed a goal says it all really. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

swanseabear 25 Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 His club record is shocking, a good bluenose, but not good enough. His record at Sunderland, Leeds, Fulham et al. proves that Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxiblue 18 Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 should have been given some game time by now,its not as if we have an abundance of optitions when looking for that inevitable equaliser.....WATP Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrinceMurat 1 Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 We probably could have had Conway for about the same wage. Not an amazing player but somewhat better than Healy and much more useful and a better all round investment. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueDaughter 172 Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 He will also contine to play ortiz over wylde who could really help us with his pace and proved himself last season....but he doesnt want his first signing to look like it was a shit one. He should at least play ortiz in his natural side Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gers31 246 Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 it was just a waste of money giving him a deal and not playing him and same goes for the old crock beattie get him punted Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im afraid we may not see that though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie1807 146 Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 I get the feeling Ally isn't playing Wylde much because he's yet to sign a new contract. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueDaughter 172 Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 They said on superscoreboard the coaching staff said its beacause they are not sure he is poised enough to get the balls in the net. Think that is ridiculous as ortiz hasent even touched the ball let alone try for goals. Wylde is fast he can run with it and deliver it to the likes of jela......he proved that last season Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
djbroxybear 660 Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 I get the feeling Ally isn't playing Wylde much because he's yet to sign a new contract.If that is the case mate why have him on the bench if you have no chance of playing him.

It's nit like Ally doesn't rate him, he wouldn't have picked him for the cup games he was in charge of last season, weird. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
G.E.C. 18,859 Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 Again, I thought he looked alright in the cameos he made last season. Needs to start the league cup games at least. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
