Yet as you chose to ignore he still set up Nisbet for a great chance which he missed. What’s so hard to understand about that.Quote:

Is that not because normally there are plenty of reserve/development games where a player in Allan’s situation would have spent a while building up game time in those matches before he’d be considered ready for the first team? We’ve not been able to do that.Quote:

I think Ross has a game plan that doesn't really allow for flair players.
Well someone better tell that to Jack Ross as he seemed to have space in the team for Allan before his illnessQuote:

He’s been training for long enough now to suggest he’s fully fit, his interview said the same, so no reason why he can’t give 100% for 15-20 minutes. Match fitness is a different matter obviously. Plus we have more scope for subs than we had in previous seasons.Quote:

This is a baffling and incompetent decision. We are letting our best player (arguably one of the best creative midfielders in Scotland) go on loan at the most critical point of the season with the Scottish Cup on the horizon too. Decisions like this just annoy the fans.
Nonsense.Quote:

We are keeping him?Quote:

Not seen any but I could take a guess at “Buzzing”. “Can’t wait to get started”. 😂Quote:

Not sure why that's relevant in regards to my point about not knowing an occasion when a player if his age and experience goes away to another team to get back into another oneQuote:

Good point. I don't knowQuote:

Therefore Scott feels that strengthening his fitness and continuing his recovery in the Championship is a sensible option. We feel that it was appropriate to continue to support Scott in his recovery by sanctioning the loan move."
Sounds like a competent decision with the players best interests at the heart of it..............
Not for the remainder of this season we are not.Quote:

All managers lie, it wouldn’t be the first time Ross has. He likes to keep players onside, I get it, but I don’t believe him when he said he wanted to keep him as part of the group. He said the same about Mallan, he said he didn’t want to sell Shaw.
:agree: my 10 year old understands it.Quote:
