cidercity1987 Posted June 4 Report Share Posted June 4 Is this the final squad or still just the provisional? I.e can he still be left behind? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petehinton Posted June 4 Report Share Posted June 4 Good news all round. Great for him, and likely increases the fee we will inevitably get for him sooner rather than later too. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baba Yaga Posted June 4 Report Share Posted June 4 Some positive words for him from ex-City striker Lee Miller in this article too. Quote Former Scotland forward Lee Miller told Tuesday's Scottish Football Podcast: "For me, it's a no-brainer. "Bring him into the environment, see how he gets on with the players, see how he strikes up partnerships and relationships. "These youngsters in the first team play with the safety catch off, they play with a freedom and they don't tense up. "I think he'll get thrown in and I don't see why he shouldn't." https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/cglljld4v0vo To be honest I am probably more excited about Scotlands first game against Germany than England vs Serbia at the moment. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were two over originally I might be wrong but I assume 27. Ben Doak pulled out and they already had an injured striker so, unless I missed something, they've lost two and gained one. Given they've lost two attacking players (albeit one a winger), I'd be surprised if Conway was the player to make way when the final squad is announced.

BCFCGav Posted June 4 Report Share Posted June 4 First of all - that’s amazing and a huge well done to Tommy. From a colder, business perspective, if he’s intent on leaving this is really good for us. A goal or three in the Euros, a few headlines, more money for us. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, a Scottish grandfather. His other grandfather is from Chard, mind. And his roots are as Somerset as can be. His great grandmother still gets to home games, although she only has to travel from Patchway - still a good effort when you're 80+, mind. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also have 4 gks in the squad so you'd imagine it will be a gk that is sent home. Unless Scotland want to take 4 gks, Tommys seat on the plane is confirmed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shauntaylor85 Posted June 4 Report Share Posted June 4 Listening to the Ian Gay/Tinnion interview and you read between the lines there is a frustration with him re the contract. I can’t see him being here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t see him being here. Yes. Tinnions body language was very telling whilst discussing Tommy. Last summer Scott went with our best wishes but there seems to be a different feel to Tommys situation. I also think that the no 9 we want to bring in, is Tommys replacement. We will of course be happy for Tommy to stay but I don't think we'll bring bring in the no 9 + another striker if Tommy goes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
