Was just scouting the Aberdeen board when i seen a comment asking who Foster was.
He earned a Scotland call up so you would think it was all good news.
I mean no disrespect for this next part.
But since he joined you guys, you look like your shipping a lot of goals and not getting the results you need.
Whilst we are not that much better in terms of actually winning a game or getting a fluid attack going without Fosters wing play. We had not shipped a goal at home in over 5 games till this weekend and are unbeaten in all competitions since he has left.
Since a lot of the goals we lost were through him it seems that by getting rid of him we have a renewed strength about our defense. Whilst your teams defense seems to be picking up his bad habits. Coincidence? or is there maybe some truth in this?
How do you guys think Foster is getting on

Foster has played well enough in a team that had lost its way. He has played in so many positions since he arrived that it would be cruel in the extreme to blame him for our recent misfortunes our main deficiency has been in our Centre Backs which has been a problem area for us for a couple of years now its funny but most of our CB's are left footed, something other teams are lacking, but none of them can really play on the right side of defence.
About the only negative I heard about Foster last night was he fell over whilst trying to get back to help out our full back and this resulted in a goal, had he not fallen it might or might not have been a goal who knows but at LB Foster has played well and when he has played at RB most of the goals we have shipped have come down our left flank as the player we had there (loanee from Man City)is a very good attacker but gets caught up the pitch too often, Foster attacks as well as he does but manages to get back to help in the defence far better than the other.

Sounds like hes stepping up his game, Hopefully he can keep up the performances and you guys can get the CB pairing you deserve and retain your place in the Championship. Best of luck for the Games ahead
