Strangely not

6ft 6 Defender

Here's hoping an Ash Taylor rather than Anthony Stewart.

Never, ever said Celtic were likeable or anything like it. 

Aye I was being a cheeky wee prick with that one

The sort of behaviour has previously seen members of staff returned to ashtray duties.

I said many times that I didn't think he was a good natural footballer. Needed a written invite to shoot too often and shirked physicality. Yes he was the best of a bad lot and a decent finisher but nothing special. In fact I think duk helped him hugely.  For a man that tall he never scored a header either. 

God I took stick for it but since he left us the proof has been in the pudding. 

I don't think he's any better than nesbit and I don't think he'd improve the mentality of the squad as I don't remember him ever really putting his body on the line for the team. Nice to have in a winning team but not someone you can rely on. 

Gotta love a bit of healthy revisionism . I think we can all agree he’s a rat bastard but to suggest he wasn’t that great anyway when at Pittodrie is some impressive psychological management.

Back to the point of the thread

 

Signing confirmed.

Five in now if you include Ronan?

[OrlandoDon]

Another signing with character and leadership clearly mentioned. Plus much needed height. I wonder if this is the end of molloy, especially since he cannot win a header.

not concerned, but keen to see  some creativity signed. Obviously Ronan is one if that’s a done deal, but wingers would be nice.

It is reassuring to see that Robinson immediately realised - right, whole new defence. Also, 6 foot 6 tank signed up - this guy might even overtake Gogic in my/Moog's mancrush rankings. No way this guy disna win a few heiders, right?

Molloy is a decent back up but probably shouldn’t be a first pick. He’s useful as a back up LB in certain games where you don’t expect to be forcing the game and more likely to be defending

Hopefully he does the job for us, but signing players from the lower leagues in England worries me. We’ve been burnt too many times. It’s a bit uninspiring, I’d expect players to be going to the o’s rather than from them. But fingers crossed he brings some much needed leadership.

I'd argue that defenders from down South are generally a good fit for the SPFL. We've had some bad ones, of course, but we've had decent success too. Being 6ft6 is a very good start, and could be the defining starting point of the Robinson era. A very Robinson signing. 

The interesting part is that he's left footed. That suggests no room for Knoester, if we're going for a back four. That would be a boost for Milne, who could be allowed the space to develop alongside a guy who'll most likely target everything entering our box. We could very easily have opted for a right footed giant to accompany Knoester.

[The.Moog]

6 foot 3 right sided CH - Mayo

6 foot 6 left sided CH - Happe

Back-ups in Tobers (if finally fit) and Knoester unless we get a good offer in which case he could be away.

Cheerio Milne & Molloy at CH.

Proof of the pudding will be on the park of course, but its a resounding yes from the Moog jury so far in that Robinson has identified a glaring weakness (wasn’t hard tbf) and has has done something about it early doors.

Just need Gogic back there now to complete the set…

Was there any estimation as to how long Knoester would be out? First thoughts were it was a really bad one.

[The.Moog]

Said he’d be out a couple of months so will miss the league cup group games but might be back for start of season proper, though that might be a wee bit optimistic…
