Ketsbaia Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 I swear to god, we're having a massive N-O piss up when this shithead finally leaves (and we have a better replacement!) Mainly so the alcohol can black out any memories of his time here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 I've little hate for Simpson, he's not good enough but everyone at the club has known that for well over a year. It's not his fault he's been our first and only choice back there for so long, and knowing he's going to play every week has probably led to complacency and arrogance. We've got decent value for money out of him, but it's long since been time to move on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketsbaia Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 The question is: do we keep him for 6 months and let him go for free, or do we try squeezing money out of some gullible club? I don't think any small fee we get would be worth the loss in squad depth. Also, who can we convince to buy him? (.....all this is if Debuchy signs, of course!)

It's a good question, even if we sign Debuchy and he's great, it doesn't change the fact that if Simpson goes we're back to square one in terms of squad depth. We need someone else who can play right back for more than one half in an emergency, and can push Debuchy for the future. Preferrably a younger player IMO. Edit: forgot about Tavernier.

Dave Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 In fact if we get Debuchy I'd keep Simpson and send Tavernier out on loan again for the rest of the season, to a club that agree to play him exclusively at RB if possible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klaus Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 We will look so much better as a team with two full backs who can attack and overlap with confidence. Santon is not a great defender, but his ability to run with the ball and take on defenders is very important to how we play. Hopefully Debuchy offers this on the right.

Mistle17 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Get rid of this little runt ASAP, get Debuchy in and use Tavernier or Abeid as back up. Or, still, put Ferguson at LB and Santon RB if needs be. Any of those options would be more beneficial to us than having Simpson playing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. Simpson would still be decent backup especially if it meant Tav. got some more experience. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Slippery Sam Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 How many times did Simpson clear the ball off the line last season? Two or three I think, unless I'm mistaken? Perhaps he contributed a fair amount to our 5th place last season. Anyway, it's not his fault he's not good enough for NUFC; the budgetary constraints on the team/club are ultimately responsible for his time here.

Gallowgate Toon Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Fine to keep him here until his contact runs out tbh. He's decent as back-up, although I doubt the board will see it that way. I think this is a definite indication that he's on his way out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
