    That's one's definitely fixable. It won't even be that challenging of a repair, just looks bad.

    I would remove all of the extra solder and clean up the remaining pads with fine sand paper. It's okay if pads are completely gone, just install sockets and make sure all of the pins are connected to the traces accordingly. You might need to solder the pins on both sides so I would use SIP machine pins. Luckily it doesn't look like that many pins are even connected. You might need to use a couple small pieces of wire to make it happen, but this is an easy repair.
