Hey Bhoys, hows you Ed? I am just wondering why we haven't taken a gamble on Joe Gormley from Cliftonville. I mean he's hardly Europe standard but in terms of the SPL he would do damage. I watch him often enough with the reds and think he should we worth punt we'd get him for next to nothing and if he was a failure then it wouldn't be a big loss.I mean we are better buying the best bargains around us instead of branching out trying to get foreign alternatives that can't settle, for an example in recent times Pukki, Balde, Scepovic, when we should have got Gauld and Russell

{Ed007's Note - Sorry mate, that's the first I've heard of him.}

I'm not surprised Ed, i'd say more of the Belfast Bhoys would knoe him, like he's only 24 Played 133 games scored 85 goals,not a bad return in any league

{Ed007's Note - I seen his goals return when I looked him up, that's impressive no matter what league you're in. He might not be CFC standards but I'd imagine he could do a job for another SPFL side.}

BelfastBhoy i'm all for giving players who are virtually unheard of a chance. Its a problem I have with our scouting system, it overlooks lower leagues and club is missing out on some good players who would do a better job than some players we have in squad.

For me Andy Robertson is a good example of failings of scouting system. 3 years ago playing queens park and was not so long ago linked with Arsenal
