GraP 1 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Might have missed it but have we stopped trying to sign him & I see we are linked to a 33 year old former brentford midfielder on a free. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSuedeSambas 56,413 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 You would think that if we sign Douglas then the interest in Eustace will end.Of the two I think I'd rather have Eustace but both of them are probably equally capable of holding in midfield for us at the level we are at just now.Is anybody else apart from Radio Scotland running with the story? Everywhere seems very quiet - nothing about it on any other sports news websites and barely anything on social media either. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaudrupsPatrickBoots 13,540 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Jonathan Douglas is 2 years younger and played 46 times last season compared to Eustace's 14.Maybe we've just decided he was the better option. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozblue 4,332 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 If the story is true about us approaching Jonathon Douglas, then I think the proposed signing of John Eustace is dead in the water. Perhaps Eustace couldn't prove his fitness. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raligt 2,544 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Brentford only said 2 days ago that Douglas was free to leave to maybe we have switched interest now that hes available Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Al 55 9,526 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Eustace was on trial to prove his fitness after knee surgery, that was the last we heard. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Al 55 9,526 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Douglas is the better optionIs he? I've never really heard of either of them. What type of player is Douglas? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilliamFyfe 1,438 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 He has another 2 weeks here? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueballss 3,036 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Is he? I've never really heard of either of them. What type of player is Douglas?yeah as i don't know if it is still the case but he was dating Natalie Sawyer!! wouldn't mind bumping into her at a game at a distance seems quite consistent and combative, not as injury prone as others mentioned and given our track record.....

Smile 26,624 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Maybe he's not going to make it so taking another option. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iakona 2,313 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Douglas is banging Natalie Sawyer from SSN. I'm sure she keeps his engine running! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
onefootwillie 1,519 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 I still think we will sign Eustace if he proves his fitness but if he doesn't then Douglas would not be a bad option Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMax399 4,012 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 I'm not sure Eustace would be able to play at the pace MW is looking for (certainly not at the level we played at for the first 30 minutes or so on Tuesday). Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaiser1041 9,107 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 I'm not sure Eustace would be able to play at the pace MW is looking for (certainly not at the level we played at for the first 30 minutes or so on Tuesday).and that's a sheer guess ?

Wullie72 151 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 I'm not sure Eustace would be able to play at the pace MW is looking for (certainly not at the level we played at for the first 30 minutes or so on Tuesday).Don't think he would be asked to, he'd be there to stop play and pass it as soon as he's won it back.

Been around a bit but a real competitor and will add bite. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
