I'm guessing that the 12 weeks has also factored in a few weeks for him to get back to match fitness. Did anyone go to the event the other night? Did MOH look fine or did any one talk with him? He didn't go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was down for attending but on another thread it stated, he was not there. It could mean, he is putting in extra training. Hope so because it would means he is ahead of schedule. He had a reputation at St Johnstone for doing extra training sessions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are assuming the natural wingers Wales and Berenguer are going to be so good that it will be impossible to drop them but so far after 1 game they have not (I admit it is only 1 game) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jw1739 Posted December 9, 2018 Report Share Posted December 9, 2018 I can't see how O'Halloran can play, or even be considered for selection, in the Christmas Derby - as he says he wants to be - if Baccus is still on our books as his short-term injury replacement. Unless by then we have another long-term injury...and Baccus is approved as the injury replacement for whoever it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neio Posted December 11, 2018 Report Share Posted December 11, 2018 I seem to be the only one, but I hope baccus stays permanently for the rest of the season. He has been pretty good. Tidy on the ball, works hard defensively. He doesn't have the attacking passing range but that's not his job, get ball and pass it to the likes of mcgree and brattan. Will be good to see MOH play, so hopefully we can have both on pitch at same time 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will score goals but his main asset is creating chances. He is always there or there about at the top of the assist ladder at the end of the season. Therefore he needs a striker who can convert those chances, do we have one if Bruno goes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe we need a creative and dangerous attacker rather than a defensive midfield player as we have a few of those. And if some game time tomorrow helps him why not.

He must have been released by WSW before he signed as an injury replacement, but he would have still been a WSW player when the last transfer window closed. He might have to wait until the next window opens, but I'm not 100% sure. @Jovan will probably know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
