S-Clarke Posted 9 August, 2009 Posted 9 August, 2009 (edited) Current Killmarnock midfielder, one of their top top assets - 22 year old. Was told by someone earlier (who also gave me the killie forum link to back it up) that we ''Apparently'' were scouting him during Burnley's friendly against Killmarnock on thursday. ''heard today that an English 'sleeping giant' had a scout at the Burnley game watching Bryson. His club who have just been relegated are very interested in Craig and a bid looks forthcoming. The guy left straight away once Bryson got subbed , and sat there in the training top of his team... Silly silly.'' He confirms it was Southampton later on in their thread: http://www.killiefc.com/forum/viewthread.php?tid=48630&page=4 I'm glad they still think of us as a sleeping giant Edited 9 August, 2009 by S-Clarke
SFC Forever Posted 9 August, 2009 Posted 9 August, 2009 Looks like we are casting our net wide if true. That can only be a good thing.
itchen_dan Posted 9 August, 2009 Posted 9 August, 2009 Murdoch was there, he was warming up Kelvin and Bart before the game
Gorgiesaint Posted 9 August, 2009 Posted 9 August, 2009 Murdoch was there, he was warming up Kelvin and Bart before the game Thats because Burnley were playing St Johnstone yesterday, the Kilmarnock game was on Thursday.
S-Clarke Posted 9 August, 2009 Author Posted 9 August, 2009 Thats because Burnley were playing St Johnstone yesterday, the Kilmarnock game was on Thursday. good point...
Verbal Posted 9 August, 2009 Posted 9 August, 2009 We're also supposed to be scouting: Jamie Murphy, 19, forward, Motherwell Dougie imrie, 25, left winger, Inverness Caledonian Thistle Scott Arfield, 20, midfielder, Falkirk Damn - suddenly I'm ITK and Scottish. Doubly cursed.

Doubly cursed. If we end up buying any of them you need to invoice the club!!
Verbal Posted 9 August, 2009 Posted 9 August, 2009 If we end up buying any of them you need to invoice the club!! Nah. I'll just settle for shutting up OBS.
RonManager Posted 9 August, 2009 Posted 9 August, 2009 Nah. I'll just settle for shutting up OBS. Someone who likes a challenge!
Glasgow_Saint Posted 9 August, 2009 Posted 9 August, 2009 Nah. I'll just settle for shutting up OBS. OBS will never be happy!
Verbal Posted 9 August, 2009 Posted 9 August, 2009 OBS will never be happy! Only because I named three Scottish players we're looking at, and you - sitting right next to them - knew diddley squat. The joys of ITK... They're all pretty good, by the way - handicapped only by their impenetrable accents.

They're all pretty good, by the way - handicapped only by their impenetrable accents. Due to location I can be our scottish scout, this will get in the way of my golf but I will do it to help out my new friends - Nicola and ML
dubai_phil Posted 9 August, 2009 Posted 9 August, 2009 Hmmm Suddenly a whole bunch of Scottish talent appears on our radar, yet our scouting system had been destroyed...... Wonder who may have tipped us off on that one? winky smiley happy thingy:-)
SFC Forever Posted 9 August, 2009 Posted 9 August, 2009 Verbal, Livingstone have a few problems, do they have someone we could use.
SuperMikey Posted 9 August, 2009 Posted 9 August, 2009 Damn - they have no money! O rly? I follow Scottish football, Bryson seems to be a very good player, would definately be happy with signing him. A few more players we should be looking at are Andy Jackson and Colin Samuel, both from St Johnstone (my second team). Jacko was out for most of last season with an achilles problem, and had a 'mystery illness' recently, but he's back fit now I believe, and HCDDAJFU! He's young, strong, good on the ball and knows how to score goals. Colin Samuel is a T&T striker who can also play on either wing, who doesn't score as many goals as AJ, but still chips in occasionally. He's 27, which is exactly the age of player that we need to be signing, and would give us some much needed width. Both of these would be excellent squad players imo, and Bryson would certainly add an extra dimension to our midfield. Sign 'em up AP!
SFC Chris Posted 9 August, 2009 Posted 9 August, 2009 Bryson could be a decent signing - Arfield and Murphy could be squad players but wouldn't expect much more than that. Imrie is a horrible wee man. A couple seasons ago he went for a 50-50 with another player and landed on the guy's neck. As the guy lay injured Imrie was in his face screaming he was "at it" etc etc. The match was abandoned and the lad ended up in hospital and had to retire from football as a result. No appology was forthcoming from Imrie for the way he acted.... ***t
thorpie the sinner Posted 9 August, 2009 Posted 9 August, 2009 Hmmm Suddenly a whole bunch of Scottish talent appears on our radar, yet our scouting system had been destroyed...... Wonder who may have tipped us off on that one? winky smiley happy thingy:-) And I bet we are paying that scout 500k a year lol!!!
thorpie the sinner Posted 10 August, 2009 Posted 10 August, 2009 If we could add Craig this week, then that would be happy days!
cjay7 Posted 10 August, 2009 Posted 10 August, 2009 He's only 5ft 7. an inch taller the SG but i cannot see AP playing those two together in this league and especially after he called a need for strength and battlers.
DT Posted 10 August, 2009 Posted 10 August, 2009 He's only 5ft 7. an inch taller the SG but i cannot see AP playing those two together in this league and especially after he called a need for strength and battlers. Maradona is five foot four, by the way. I don't think anyone doubted his strength or battling qualities.

saintsforlife7 Posted 10 August, 2009 Posted 10 August, 2009 anyone got these of football manager ffs Well Bryson is rather good on there so if he was to sign then he's more than decent!
cjay7 Posted 10 August, 2009 Posted 10 August, 2009 no disrespect to CB but im pretty sure he's not Maradona. I was just stating i think we need some height in midfield and regardless of what anyone says if we had to play two midfielder one 5ft 6 and one 5ft 7 in the center of the park we'd be vulnerable.

Height isn't everything - how high they can jump is another matter, Pahars was alright in the air for a small player.

I imagine it would be CB or SG alongside Morgan
Gingeletiss Posted 10 August, 2009 Posted 10 August, 2009 Height isn't everything - how high they can jump is another matter, Pahars was alright in the air for a small player. and Crouch is crap in the air...........
JoeShmoe Posted 10 August, 2009 Posted 10 August, 2009 We missed a tricl letting S****horpe sign Rob Jones from Hibs .. would have been perfect for us
Ludwig Posted 10 August, 2009 Posted 10 August, 2009 I think we should play a narrower system, with 3 midfielders then a front trio, with two strikers and Lallana given room. Then Mills and James given some opportunity to play as alternating wing-backs.
hackedoff Posted 10 August, 2009 Posted 10 August, 2009 Maradona is five foot four, by the way. I don't think anyone doubted his strength or battling qualities. Dont forget to add the length of his arm to that measurement.
Rogerfryisalegend Posted 10 August, 2009 Posted 10 August, 2009 I think we should play a narrower system' date=' with 3 midfielders then a front trio, with two strikers and Lallana given room. Then Mills and James given some opportunity to play as alternating wing-backs.[/quote']James as a wingback, hmmm, maybe he could use his electric pace, I would have time to buy a beer and a pie before he got to the line to put his cross in. he's no full back, let alone a wingback, I would rather he was in the midfield, his lack of pace and tackle does not show up there so much.
70's Mike Posted 10 August, 2009 Posted 10 August, 2009 who was the last decent jock we had on the pitch
Colinjb Posted 10 August, 2009 Posted 10 August, 2009 who was the last decent jock we had on the pitch Neil McCann? No Nigel Quashie? Flattered to decieve Christian Daley? Hmmmm, the 5-0 at Hillsborough...
Crab Lungs Posted 10 August, 2009 Posted 10 August, 2009 who was the last decent jock we had on the pitch Neil McCa.... Oh.
70's Mike Posted 10 August, 2009 Posted 10 August, 2009 Neil McCa.... Oh. Difficult Jimmy Gabriel Was Telfer a Sweaty ?
Colinjb Posted 10 August, 2009 Posted 10 August, 2009 Difficult Jimmy Gabriel Was Telfer a Sweaty ? technically yes. And you need to be very careful on how you define 'good.'
70's Mike Posted 10 August, 2009 Posted 10 August, 2009 technically yes. And you need to be very careful on how you define 'good.' i agree i was just sitting here thinking about the last decent one we had, and am really struggling without wading through IN THAT NUMBER
Minty Posted 10 August, 2009 Posted 10 August, 2009 Colin Clarke and Ted McDougall would be the only two I think of right now... (apart from Telfer already mentioned)
Minty Posted 10 August, 2009 Posted 10 August, 2009 Oh, and Jimmy Steele. But we are going back some time now!
70's Mike Posted 10 August, 2009 Posted 10 August, 2009 Oh, and Jimmy Steele. But we are going back some time now! which was exactly my point Eric Martin George O'Brien
saint63 Posted 10 August, 2009 Posted 10 August, 2009 Jimmy Gabriel was a great player - my hero as a schoolboy
70's Mike Posted 10 August, 2009 Posted 10 August, 2009 Jimmy Gabriel was a great player - my hero as a schoolboy funny how most of the jocks mentioned were Hard Men
REDARMY79 Posted 10 August, 2009 Posted 10 August, 2009 Colin Clarke and Ted McDougall would be the only two I think of right now... (apart from Telfer already mentioned) Colin Clarke was Northern Irish
Dicko Posted 10 August, 2009 Posted 10 August, 2009 Colin Clarke and Ted McDougall would be the only two I think of right now... (apart from Telfer already mentioned) Colin Clarke was from N Ireland (or I have missed a joke there?)
