I think this will be Iain Wilson’s year. Wilson deserves the chance to develop in the first team squad ahead of a signing like this surely... 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would imagine it is his job to scour the country and maybe pick up talent that the gaffer and his contacts would maybe not know much about. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zorro Posted June 27, 2019 Report Share Posted June 27, 2019 I think O’Hara could do a job for us. Unfortunately for him, for £100k there’s players who could do a better job. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chubbs Posted June 27, 2019 Report Share Posted June 27, 2019 O'Hara wasn't anything special but he was ok and he was capable of covering several positions. We should've kept him at the time he left. Now I think our sights are set a bit higher and we give AA time to assess and add to the squad. Iain Wilson is the Mark O'Hara of today with his versatility... however that could also become his failing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Estragon Posted June 27, 2019 Report Share Posted June 27, 2019 I always really like Mark O'Hara when he was with us, felt he showed a great versatility and unusual composure for someone so young. He seems, though, to have a habit of going into a new club like a lion and out like a lamb, which I don't really understand. His early form at Dundee was outstanding, but by the end of his time there he was last seen (by me at least) jogging sportingly alongside his pal Wilson while the latter slid in an unlikely finish in that 3-2 win at RP. Regardless, I would definitely have given him another go...until I saw the cost. As ludicrous as it is when one of our league rivals is rejecting £15m bids as derisory for an injured player, we can't afford to take any chances on a player that's going to cost as (comparatively) little as £100k. Any player that we bring in for that kind of money, for me, has to arrive with a degree of assurance that it'll be worthwhile, and regrettably I don't feel that way about him. Hope he gets a good move and kicks on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piffer Posted June 27, 2019 Report Share Posted June 27, 2019 I liked O’Hara when he was here. IMO part of his problem was he was too versatile so managers shunted him all over. He seemed a quiet guy who wouldn’t complain. I think he could bring something to our side but I wouldn’t spend £100k to get him. I know people will have a problem with us looking at certain players and feel it’s going backwards but IMO it’s a good thing. The transfer market is a big place. We have to use the whole thing to get the best for Killie. That may be a wonder kid from Inter or a reject from Peterborough. There is no perfect formula. AA has to find the right guys for him just as SSC did. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killieboykfc Posted June 27, 2019 Report Share Posted June 27, 2019 Didn't Lee Clark bin him because he claimed his attitude was poor and his off field behaviour wasn't great? Seemed strange at the time as he didn't seem the type from the outside looking in. LC also signed JJ who is a complete wank off the park so who knows what really went on. I would take O'Hara back for a small fee/free but not for anywhere near 100k -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killie89 Posted June 27, 2019 Report Share Posted June 27, 2019 A perfectly solid player, certainly more of a goal threat at the clubs he’s been with since leaving us. But definitely not worth paying a transfer fee for. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was the opposite - someone challenged Clark to that effect and he said something along the lines "no that's rubbish, his attitude was exemplary but I want better players and believe I can get them". As it turned out he was able to get 3 players who I would say WERE better, but 348 who were pish. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killiekranky Posted June 27, 2019 Report Share Posted June 27, 2019 I always liked him as a player and felt he suffered for his versatility when he was with us, similar situation to Rory Mckenzie and look at the player he has grown into. I think he could be a great addition to the squad but not at 100k. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piffer Posted June 27, 2019 Report Share Posted June 27, 2019 I had to watch the highlights to check as I didn’t think it was O’Hara. In fairness to him the whole team switched off but it’s his man who received the ball in acres of space and picked out the pass. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had Balatoni not been at fault for a few goals in the run up to really selling the jerseys that day at ICT. Cost us a pen and the keeper. Watching the highlights on YouTube the goal was Falkirk'sonly real effort of note. We should have won by a couple and thankfully we were much more clinical second leg. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
