JamboAl Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 Watched the entire Hearts-Ross County match (yes, I’m a sucker for punishment). IMO, Derek Adams probably doesn’t see Loturi as an SPFL quality player. Ross County has someone called Yann Dhanda who would play a similar role to Loturi but who I think is a better player that Loturi, and probably how the manager sees it himself. I think our boy will be on his way out especially if County stay up and Adams is around next season.

Though I feel Adam’s has his preferred 11 that will take him to the split. Aird25 and JamboAl 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loturi also doesn’t have Dhanda’s pace, nor experience at a decent level. jordan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know. I'm with El Hombre on this one. When I came up, in my little corner of Canada honking=huge/vast. Like too big to be possible for whatever it was that you were talking about. Could be bad, could be good. Hawerchuk had a honking game against the Hawks on Saturday= good. Mosquitoes were honking at Pinawa on the weekend=bad. Of course.....that poster could also be shortening a familiar slang term. "Honking pile of shit!" could become "honking" in a familiar circle of friends. Being economical with words. So, could just be a bad read. Instance where what was meant to be verbalized lost something in the translation to print. Sorry about that, stalling.

Ozzie_the_parrot Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Just so people know honking in Scottish dialect terms usually means that something smells really bad. It's definitely not complimentary in this context. YorkRegionFan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Real Marc Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Honking is a great adjective. Pants is one of my favs too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzie_the_parrot Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 (edited) The deeper background to it in a Scottish context is that the word honk is related to semen so originally it would have referred to a smell reminiscent of a repurposed teenager's gym sock but in more recent times it became anything that smells bad or by extension anything that's just woefully bad. Back in the day if a teenage boy became sexually excited for some reason and people in the immediate vicinity could smell the difference that would be a case of somebody having honked and would lead to all kinds of accusation as to who the culprit was in a similar way to the aftermath of somebody breaking wind in a silent but violent sort of way.

jordan Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 On 1/25/2024 at 1:42 PM, jordan said: County added a CM/DM on loan today. Jenk’s has come in and played 90 in 4 out 4 matches. Also Eli King came in on loan and has also played 90 in 4 out 4 matches. They are the preferred two in the middle. Loturi has featured with both in a midfield 5 though. If they played a relegation playoff today they would likely lose to Raith or Partick (who already pumped them in January). Assuming Adam’s gets the sack, then a season in the Championship wouldn’t be terrible, with Betfred, Scottish Cup, and Challenge Cup he could probably get 50 games under the new manager.

toontownman Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Big win for Ross County today. Loturi going all 98 minutes. Not a great performance though. Hearts were completely on top for most of the game. Unfortunatley I felt Loturi cut a stark comparison to other team mates that looked hungry getting the ball, wanting the ball or moving into space. Seemed very passive and didn't see a ton of the ball. Maybe that was due to his position and role but encouraging he played the entire game. blueseeka, WestHamCanadianinOxford, johnyb and 2 others 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phresh Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 Rangers fans commending him for his performance in County’s 3-2 win the other day, apparently played quite well in their other matchup earlier this season.

dyslexic nam Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 I had checked the fotmob ratings after the game yesterday and he was rated poorly (6.6), which seemed a bit counterintuitive since they were 2nd last and had just beaten a league powerhouse. I know they still conceded two but it seemed weird that a key defensive player would be deemed to have a bad game in a winning effort when they could have easily been overwhelmed. Your comment makes me question the ranking even more. Shway 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
