    It’s one of the bes nicknames I’ve ever heard, even Mag pals have credited it.

    The lad has been superb. And even when he isn’t scoring, he’s contributing.

    Shame he wasn’t given the number 9 as he’d be fully justifying it.

    Didn't realise he had this title, I was calling him the Ross Ness Monster in the match thread on Saturday, close but no cigar.

    Agree, as I've just said on the Charlie thread, we have an embarrassing amount of talent at the managers disposal.

    Clocky was always shouting for Parky to play them , Dan Neil has stood out the last few games, that guy is going to go far if we can hold onto him, and Embos class is getting better every game, if these last 3 signings come off i hope we can keep everyone happy so all the cup runs will be paramount having good progression

    So much more to his game than Wyke, also seems like a better finisher. Wyke was excellent one touch finisher last season but would usually miss the target if given time to think.

    Also seems to have the right attitude.

    think we all saw last season that ross stewart had so much more movement than wyke, what we were not convinced about was his ability at finishing due to him not having a great many chances...i think he has cleared that up now.

    heading and finishing with either foot is looking good, one v one is pretty good, taking more than one touch and scoring, good...i would have been and still will be happy if he manages 20 goals as i think the rest of the team will chip in with a good few between them but i honestly think he is capable of many more, here's hoping he gets a good run this season and can steer clear of nasty injuries.

    He reminds me of Quinn in a lot of ways.

    We’re laughing if he has even half of the positive impact Quinn had here.

    He has a long way to go but definitely a promising start.

    Which is a better nickname anyway . . . . at least it has his actual name in it, and any reference to that cheating arsehole Drogba shouldn't have any place in a nickname for any S.A.F.C. player :emoticon-0148-yes:
