Dont think we need him as we have Cregg and McBride taking turns at the Matty Jack Role now.

Nope. :tin hat:Tin hat on here but I thought he was overrated. I honestly believe that if he'd been with us longer, his limitations would have been found out. The same as they have been at the other clubs he moved to.

Of all the players that people campaign to have brought back, this is the most ridiculous.

He wasn't that good the first time we had him and he's been around the clubs, why would we want him.

Didn't he already come back for a trial and not win a contract?

thats what i was thinking? was it under mixu? thought he was decent enough once he got fit and up to the speed of scots footie, however his running style always made me think 'he's never a player' if he was as good as his uncle then he wouldn't even get a sniff here, shame.

Come on chaps! Rocky had a decent season for us and provided bite in the middle and enjoyed his time here. Sadly, he put the King's shilling first and has failed at every club since then and is not getting any younger. That (and the failed trial two seasons back) would conclude he is now a busted flush of a player, so A'deen are welcome to him, though I suspect McGhee might see his limitations.

But lets not take away what he did have in his ER spell.

Wasn't even a season, Bob.

Totally agree - not a road we want to go back down.

McGumpty, on the other hand, MAY be getting a tad desperate..... :devil:

I would, thought he was fantastic when he came here a few years ago. If he earns a contract up north then it will be interesting to see how he gets on.

Good player when here under TM. I think we should be looking to the future and not the past now and Cregg and McBride are going to be that future :greengrin
