    Im sorry but a horrendous footballer. Didn't look interested at all yesterday. One incident I noticed in particular was Johnstone breaking into the box from the right, looking for someone to hit with the cross and this lump is flat footed hiding behind a couple of defenders instead of peeling off or trying to find space. Anonymous, * & I genuinely find it astounding someone with such woeful control and awareness has made it this far in the game.

    I still like him. If we can get him in for 5 million I wouldnt mind seeing if we can develop him.

    He's like a juiced up Darren Jackson

    That's my take on the situation. He did originally look a good player and had an initial impact.

    His thread was full of sign him up comments for a while.

    It has been a massive dip in form recently.

    I hope he enjoyed his loan and trophies, back I don’t want him anywhere near Celtic next season.

    Reading he has a"sore knee" and is a doubt for Saturday. Could have played his last game in the hoops thankfully.

    I'm not surprised.

    He'd need to wear a deep sea diver's helmet to hide those ears...

    5 million? Darren Jackson? Juiced?

    I've literally seen it all now.

    That's why Ewan Henderson was in the first team squad.

    Aye pretty much same thoughts as everyone else, great pace and physicality when he chooses to use it but shocking first touch and control. Gave us a wee boost after Xmas when we needed it though but would be looking elsewhere for a permanent player.
