Also think Ola John would fit in quite well for similar reasons always remember his pace and skill. he kind of disappeared not even sure where he is now.
He did that on the pitch too

Was too inconsistent. Wingers generally are but he was another level
Scored a banger up at Bolton when he was here. From memory he was extremely hit and miss and complete inconsistent. He has never hung about at a club either so potentially an attitude issue.

Good chant though.

Full Dutch international, so clearly talented if not consistent. How many clubs in this league have had both a full Dutch international and a Brazilian in the past 5 years?

Hendo has informed us of this. I am not sure Leon was suggesting Ola John is actually an Uber driver........ :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

I was more concerned with his level of fitness problem. Seemed incapable of making any effort for more than 30 minutes.

Since we got relegated we’ve had three full Dutch internationals, all left wingers, with a total of four caps between them.

Sounds like Southwood is having a great game away at Ibrox

Cracking experience for him and good signs for us

Certainly wouldn't be against him fighting for the number 1 shirt next season.

Kept a clean sheet in a 1-0 away win.

Maybe not number 1 next season, I don't think Rafael will be removed from his position quite so quickly. But he will certainly be the back-up 'keeper with cup games his chance to shine.

What is good, however, is that if Rafael picks up a medium to long term injury, I have no worries about Southwood coming in.

Its a great result for Hamilton and for him, in front of a large crowd. I think a promise for him to play cup games and being number 2 would persuade him to hang around for another year

Interesting from JLow today. Thinks it'll be a quiet summer transfer window based upon loans and fees. I thought we were largely out of the woods FFP wise, but clearly with the way we structured the Joao, Puscas and Ejaria deals last year, we're not likely to be big spenders. But then it looked like we had no money last summer, until we suddenly did.
