As the title suggests.

Not sure what this means though...? Loan? January signing on a free?

Terrible in defence, has his good moments in midfield. Wouldn't be disappointed with the signing, wouldn't be overly excited by it either.

He has scored against celtic

Wow that's hilarious....

Anyway, I'm led to believe it'll be the same back line again tomorrow, so this bloke will probably be at right midfield. Can't say I know much about him, but what emergency has taken place so an emergency loan has been brought in?

On the whole though, it's not really in the midfield that players are needed just, ICT are crying out for a decent centre half to challenge Bulvitis and Munro.

Mr Duncan is out for tomorrow,So he may well go straight in to that position, and the Spl are altering their rules on loans due to the fact that players arent getting games with there being no reserve games. I think the sfl rules have stayed the same though, so ICT cant loan out till the 1st.

I'm impressed with the way Wikipedia keeps their site up to date.

[edit] Aberdeen

In January 2008, Levein told Duff he was free to leave Tannadice and find himself a new club, and he was released on 17 January,[9] after playing 170 games for the club, scoring four times. Duff began training with fellow SPL side Aberdeen and a short-term move to his hometown club was confirmed the following day,[1] seeing him become the third player to move from Tannadice to Pittodrie in eighteen months, following Lee Miller[10] and Lee Mair.[11] Within six weeks of arriving, however, Duff was one of several players manager Jimmy Calderwood threatened to release at the end of the season, due to the club's poor performances.[12] In May 2008, Duff instead signed a two-year contract extension with the Pittodrie side.[13]

[edit] Inverness Caledonian Thistle

In December 2009 he joined Inverness Caledonian Thistle on a month's loan.[14]

Can't be an awful lot of them.... Surely?

As i thought, this geezer can play in, quoted from this wiki page Johnboy, "any defensive or Midfield position" so in that case don't you think that it is an emergency loan which will be used in Defence as to a lot of fellow fans that is where we are short.

I think he might well be used as cover for Tokely as he has played RB a number of times for Aberdeen, however...

...he's been woeful in that position. I rate him highly as a midfielder. Aberdeen/Dundee Utd level, so far better than we've got. As a defender though, he sucks big time. Imagine Don Cowie or John Rankin as a full-back, then you might see what I mean.

Please, Butcher, stick him in an attacking mid position.

Excellent news. Does anyone know if his contract is up in the summer? This deal may be made permanent in January if he performs well over the next month. I seem to remember him being linked with us before in the past, can anyone else recall this?

Its encouraging to see TB is trying to sort out this crisis and hopefully he'll add to it by bringing in a couple of defenders next month.

It can only be good for ICT to be bringing in some experience to help out our younger players like Cox. We have a tough festive programme ahead and if he can help us through that then it can do no harm. I would imagine he will play in the Russell Duncan role.

I think its a good signing for a month. There is no real risk and we aren't exactly setting the heather alight with what we've got so any addition helps. He's a decent midfielder. Reckon he has only played in defence because Aberdeen were short in that department.

He is a decent SPL midfielder and we are a mid table 1st division team currently so bring him on and hope he does a job.

Its kind of like an extended trial somewhat too. Never know, if he's good we might sign him.

I very much doubt we'll be seeing him play for ICT

:029: <-- You

:huh: <-- Me

It's not often I get an inside scoop before a story breaks!

His contract is up at the end of the season but given the length of his loan by the time it expires the transfer market will have opened so we may extend it, should he play well and i hope he does.

Looked good today, moved the ball well and don't think he wasted a pass. Bit hard to tell if it happened at the other end of the park though!

Good signing as cover for a month.

Hardly did a duff pass!

Didn't stand out but he did well

He was okay, but nothing overly special. Probably better than Duncan mind.

Thought he played not bad at all considering he was put straight in to the team,

I thought he played very well, and seemed to read other peoples games a lot better than some who have been there for months/years. He will stir things up nicely for the month.

I thought he was solid. Held the team together well.

He seemed ok today.

I was impressed with him. He didnt do anything to stand out but his passing was very good. He has only been here a day so I wouldnt be surprised if he wasnt at his best. If we extend the loan in January I reckon he could be a very good signing

Maybe the experience we require to help Cox ripen in the middle of the park, and with Duncan out for tomorrow, maybe not such a bad idea.

You must have had your crystal ball out for this one!!

Remembering back to his performances for the Dons against us last season, was'nt to excited about the loan deal, however after his performance in midfield today he may just be the talisman we need to get that department working and the balance of the team in general ticking over??

Was impressed by both his workrate and use of the ball.................and Cox seemed to shine with a more experienced leader aongside. Glimmer of hope for me..............

I dont understand why people on here were critising Duff, when we have players like Stratford, Duncan and Bulvitis at the club. He had a solid game in the middle of the park with cox, and he passed the ball about the park well - thats what we lacked before was a solid midfeild partnership and credit to Butcher for bringing in Duff, even if its only a tempery deal.

Donview--oh , I so missd you me lad> :021:

Now could you tell us which teams(s) do you actually support?

Does Aberdeen fit in there somewhere?

Just asking.

Hi from cold Canada, anyways.

Think "remembering back to his performances for the Dons against US" should answer you're question you old codger !!

Long time since I graced the "Dung Heap" sporting red

Can't say I am too impressed with this. Maybe just emergency cover for a combination of injuries and suspensions?

You just hate anybody who plays for the Dons RIG!

Seems like a very good opportunist signing and we've nothing at all to lose from this yet still folk whine.

Nothing glamorous but he has been about enough clubs to suggest he is a good professional player and if anything will have a positive effect on the team. As a player, I've never rated him but he'll definitely do a job for us and is probably better than what we have at right back
