rb_506 Posted August 12, 2016 Report Share Posted August 12, 2016 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Green_(footballer,_born_1996) Apparently on trial and potentially signing. Ossett Albion's finest by all accounts! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azert Posted August 12, 2016 Report Share Posted August 12, 2016 Continues along the lines of top young talent who has dropped away. Was signed by Burnley last season on a short term deal so obviously has potential 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zorro Posted August 12, 2016 Report Share Posted August 12, 2016 Matthew Kennedy was written off by the forum experts, despite having a better pedigree. It'll be interesting to see how they greet this fella if he signs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mogwai Posted August 12, 2016 Report Share Posted August 12, 2016 (edited) The Gusrdian article about Green is pretty interesting reading. Sounds like he's got a lot of baggage, but seems pretty self-aware about it. The next Andy McLaren?

King Posted August 12, 2016 Report Share Posted August 12, 2016 Signed on loan until January. Not sure all these loans are good in the long term. Would rather get players in for more than 6 months. http://mobile.burnleyfootballclub.com/news/article/2016-17/green-joins-kilmarnock-on-loan-3244100.aspx 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
langlands_killie Posted August 12, 2016 Report Share Posted August 12, 2016 Non league unattached should be very cheap so will hardly be a risk if as bad as some others.possibly worth a go. Hope this though is not the main bit of clark's jigsaw for addressing our issues and now loss of josh 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scouser2 Posted August 12, 2016 Report Share Posted August 12, 2016 hope he is different in style and play than the other midfielders we have .....LC has taken full use of the "loan market" though all of are of a similar age and time playing first team football would have hoped for at least one player out of these loanees with more experience 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piffer Posted August 12, 2016 Report Share Posted August 12, 2016 I'm not a fan of all these loan deals. Similar to Ben Gordon we can find a decent player key to our team only to see him taken off of us. Having said that the most pleasing thing about the deals is like Gordon most of them are short term which means we are not left with players in the second half of the season who have offered little. Given the chance of signing more players I really thought Clark would have went looking for more experience in the side. Hopefully this lad can do enough for us and I look forward to seeing what he can do. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Killie71 Posted August 12, 2016 Report Share Posted August 12, 2016 If he signed a new contract with Burnley he must be a decent player. Hopefully. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skygod Posted August 12, 2016 Report Share Posted August 12, 2016 (edited) "New Player Annoucnment" Two short statements issued by the club on the website today, each with a typo. This one is just in bold letters in the headline.... I wonder if this is another recommendation by Rangers scout and ex-Burnley sporting director, Frank McParland.

bute-killiefan Posted August 12, 2016 Report Share Posted August 12, 2016 If we sign someone I've never heard of, I reserve judgement. If it's Paul Cairney etc, then I cry 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casual observer Posted August 12, 2016 Report Share Posted August 12, 2016 Another wee boy to squeeze onto the subs bench and play keepie up during half times? Or an inspired gem to provide the creative spark we need? Time will tell. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killiefc1 Posted August 12, 2016 Report Share Posted August 12, 2016 Dont want to sound to critical as a havent even seen the boy play and good luck to him but again its like lee clark has a specific type of player he is going to sign young english youth player who hasnt got any first team experience when thats what we need most right now not more youngsters in the squad we are crying out for one or two experienced players and i think we will have a team that will compete. Hope i am proven wrong really do but why not go for someone like dean shiels i would take him back in a heart beat. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

historyman Posted August 12, 2016 Report Share Posted August 12, 2016 I think after having seen the new signings to date the general view was that we could do with some more experience. I can fully understand why fans are a bit concerned and disillusioned as we sign another youngster with no experience of first team football. its like he has a fixed idea in his head that he is determined to implement. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
