You forgot about Daly and Kyle. Now they were players.
I try not to use the squad building during those years as examples. It was reflective of the mess the club was in!

The keeper was diving all over the place making heroic saves and didn't have a hair out of place. Like Roger Moore in The Saint after a bit of fisticuffs.The keeper on the other hand, bar the snide haircut was decent.
only one i can think of is Duke box, loved that boy.I'm not having a go, but can you name one "third option" striker of that ilk that's ever been good for us?
If you play with that sort of striker, you need to build a team around them, and they better be good enough to deserve that. Think Hateley, Prso, Jelavic - all miles better players.
Lafferty, Thompson, Velicka, Gayle, Garner, Herrera, Ostenstadt - all brought in to be an "option", all failed.
Is she no his ex bosses ex wife?At least his women is MILF tidy.
Probably nothing else to say on the man.
people go on about this 3rd option or something different. That's not how we play it's not our game so I fail to see where he fits in as we don't play hoof ball like Aberdeen or Livingston ect.

He struggled against what is quote easily the best CB pairing in the country who cost the best part of 7 million
That wouldn't be our ask of him if we were to sign him.
He has looked on the whole a pretty competent football player in games against us.
The notion of being as dismissive of players on here at times is quite odd.
'Pretty Competent' ??
Sorry mate - can't see it myself
I agree that's dismissive though
Must have missed the last few games against Livvy....
Helander owned him
As I have said on the handful of occasions I’ve seen dykes he has caused us and the poets problems with yesterday being the exception. However on that small sample I can’t say if he would be good enough for us or not and agree he doesn’t fit into our style of play.Dykes is a big battering ram, nothing more. A competent defence dealt with him without breaking a sweat. He would probably play about 30 minutes a month for us coming on as a substitute because Morelos and Defoe are on a different planet. If we were, God forbid, in dire straits and both of them were out then Stewart or Kent could play up front in an emergency.
Dykes is an Australian Steven McLean. You don't need to be a lumbering oaf to play as the big man up top, Morelos plays that role better than any striker we have had since Jelavic or Prso becuse he and they are actual footballers.
Can only imagine the people advocating this signing are those who within five minutes of a match at Ibrox are screaming "GET IT IN THE F.UCKIN' BOAX" until their eyes are bulging out of their heads.

However a player like him would come in handy even if only for 30 minutes a month.
Look at the first game v the poets. They hemmed us in and we couldn’t get our midfield going so we resorted to having to hoof the ball high up the top park to Defoe and Morelos and they won every header. Our normal style of play was out the window that day so another option on that day could have helped imo.
Few decent keepers in the leagueThe keeper on the other hand, bar the snide haircut was decent.
Men against boys stuff. If you match Livi’s physical presence they have nothing else in their lockerHelander owned him
Took a few.Not really the speciality of a striker I'd want in my team. His long throw ins were shite by the wayI am sure I saw dykes taking one of the long throws today. I wondered what the point of that was.
They looked long enough to me. He’s a pretty average player but there’s no point in making up stories just to prove a point.He's not very good and his long throws are not very long.
Play that style for us and he would be suspended half the season.No, whether dykes is good enough I don’t know as I’ve only seen him a total of 4 times. 3 v us and 1 v the scum. My opinion is that a big rumble who’s decent in the air up front would be a decent 3rd option to have.
She is the wife of Queens ex club captain Jim Thompson.Is she no his ex bosses ex wife?
We going to have him on the bench instead of Defoe?If cheap get the boy signed in January , might make the difference as a sub coming on last 10 minutes when the panic button is pressed , big guy presence in the box is something we do not have
