    Very costly gamble for someone so injury prone which has failed terribly. Complete waste of a wage. Wont be missed in any way shape or form.

    Up there with one of our biggest let downs and failures of a signing for long time, there has been a good few contenders over the years to be awarded that much sought after accolade, but my vote would certainly be for Bryson by a country mile.
    Waste of a wage and wont be missed at all, cheerio Craig and dinna lit the door hit you on the erse on the way oot the building.

    No manager ever gets it completely right in the transfer market, and we accentuate our failings quite rightly, but in the past few years:

    Gregg Wylde
    Calvin Zola
    Stephen Gleeson
    Myles Storey
    Chris Forrester
    Craig Bryson
    Callum Morris

    These guys have all been signed and let go early in their contract with no doubt a pay-off. That’s a damning indictment on our scouting/transfer policy.

    I'm sure the McInnes pay off early list will be much longer than that. Off the top of my head add Langfield, Quinn and Stevie May

    Will be glad to see the back of him - not sure why, but I never took to him at all.

    On the rare occasions he wasn’t injured McInnes seemed to feel obliged to play him even though he was useless.

    I would think Devlin must have a similar percentage of unavailability due to injury during his time at the club - I wonder if we’ll ditch him too?

    Not sure we can have Langfield in the “early release club”, he was here for about 100 years FFS. And I think Quinn wanted to leave, he was not a disaster, I think that was genuinely a contract ripped up for free instead of a pay-off.

    I’ll give you Stevie May though, we are probably still paying 1/2 of his wage.

    Should Tansey not be on that list?

    They were all nonentities as well, the only one I was happy we signed was May.

    Crocks are of no use to us whatsoever

    It is what it is. Let's just knuckle down and get that third place in the bag.
