Think other areas need more urgent attention. However I read Garry Mccallister saying we were rebuilding from the back so is the spine of keeper, centre half and centre forward what they're going for....think that was Souness' philosophy I think replacing every area of the pitch is a priority. Getting a top quality keeper is a start. We now have the best keeper in Scotland by a mile, which admittedly doesn't count for much. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forza 7 Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 never highly rated Foderingham, considering he has conceded nearly 20 goals against Celtic maybe? All keepers are prone to howlers and he has had good moments. but if we were talking about getting rid of him I wouldnt lose sleep. Nice to see McGregor back, hope he can play consistently and to the best of his ability. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrGaryValentine 85 Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 McGregor is the current Scotland number one and he knows what it takes to win at Rangers. Great Bosman signing. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tannochsidebear 2,429 Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 Delighted to have McGregor back with us. Still a top keeper, and if he is even 70% of what he was when he left it will be a 100% upgrade on our current options. Probably be on much the same money as Wes, so we have already made a change that will earn us 8-10 points a season for free. It is not always the amount of cash you spend, but how you spend it! Now if we can get this "reported" £3M for Wes we can certainly use that better in other areas. Wes would make a decent backup at the top end of the English Champ, or first choice lower down the champ or league 1. His inability to stop long shots, and make the big saves at crucial points in big games means he has no chance of becoming a top keeper. He has served us well and tried his best and I wish him nothing but the best and will look out for his results where he ends up, but it was always a level below what we needed to compete properly. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooponthewing 1,139 Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 (edited) I can’t believe it’s taken all this time for me to finish off the OP......”Shags ten birds a night”.....

You could argue that a good, organised & vocal keeper is the glue that hold the defense together....definitely a good signing!!! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

colinstein 294 Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 who has watched McGregor playing this season ? I haven't so I don't know how good he is Is he a better stopper than Wes or does he command the box more ? what about distribution from the back ? Anybody watched him ? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo79 15,299 Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 Wes is going and I think he has wanted to go for a while. McGregor is highly thought of by Hull fans and is definitely a better keeper than Wes. An improvement and hopefully the first of many. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't have any stats as such ,but he's one of the players that is up for serious consideration as Hull City's player of the year. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
