Their Jerry built stadium

If we paid fees they’re not Bosnans 😋

Celtic have off field issues which will cost them. One well documented. the other maybe not so prominent just now but bubbling under

Don’t think aribo & bassey were bosmans

When building a team I’d always follow the SAF approach:- 1) go out & get the best goalkeeper you can get who will gain points & not cost you games 2) check any player’s attendance record before signing him Recently we’ve seen McGregor cost us lots of points but doesn’t get dropped. And signing Souttar & Ramsey(on loan) puts a big question mark at 2)

Nothing wrong with Bosmans & loans if you know what you’re doing

Exactly what Shearer said on MOTD not so long ago. Simply having VAR doesn’t solve all problems. It’s how it’s used. And by whom.

I think there be a lot more of those players leaving than you seem to suggest. anyone who’s contract is up will be moved on. anyone going into their final year of their contract will be moved on ( or will try to move on to get some sort of a fee) except maybe Morelos

Watching the game from my seat in the SJ rear yesterday I couldn’t help but feel I’d seen this old movie too often. We dominate possession but create little. The ball goes down one side then back to the middle then down the other side. And maybe same again if we don’t needlessly lose possession. And ditto. Then the ball eventually goes into the opposition penalty box and gets cleared easily as we don’t have enough bodies in the box. And certainly not ones who will anticipate and attack the ball arriving in the box. For me our biggest failing is we’re simply not good enough to play one up front in the SPFL against a packed defence. Whether we could go to 3-5-2 or 4-4-2 is up for debate. And once again poor goalkeeping cost us yesterday. Why won’t the manager play Jon McLaughlin?

I’ve just seen the goals on tv since I got back from the game, McGregor is woeful at their first. It’s not even a great shot is it?

We signed five players in January ( including Souttar) None have made an impact as might have been expected That’s a big worry for me

Not dropping McGregor has been a huge mistake by GvB

And after the departures of a number of players out of contract in the summer and those entering the final year of their contract where will we be?

We could have played til midnight & not scored second half. Disappointing to lose to such a poor Celtic team Roofe nowhere near the player when he joined us.

For me Sakala could be the key today. Sit him on the shoulder of their last defender and knock long balls over the top to use his pace . It will force them to defend deeper

It’s important we start the game well. They’ll come flying out the traps at 100mph. We must be ready for that but they can’t keep that up for 90minutes. I hope Ramsey plays. His class could be too much for them alongside Kent

Maybe if the Aussies like the yahoos so much at Ange’s homecoming they’ll want to keep them 🤠 would do us a favour. think the Irish losing interest in them nowadays

I’m glad that’s sorted. Our board were naive if (& it’s still ‘if’ for me) we had contracted to participate in this tournament They need to realise we have few friends in Scottish football & most of those who tried to bury us in 2012 are still around. Getting involved with the yahoos is unwise at the best of times. They are a vile club with a vile support who will try everything to portray us in a bad light to deflect from their own misdemeanours which significantly outnumber ours.This tournament would have given them an opportunity to do so Our PR needs to improve too

A poor commercial deal which doesn’t produce revenue which might be expected. Castore the main one

How can he be good at his job when signing lousy commercial deals?

Do u think the Castore deal is a good deal? Bisgrove even himself admitted there had been problems And how much do we get per annum from tomket tyres etc ? We’re not getting the return we should be getting from some commercial deals in my opinion

Have actually officially announced we’d be taking part in this tournament?

Has the club ever come out & publicly stated that we’re definitely participating in this tournament in Australia? What I got told is that we’d got a couple of offers including this one which presumably paying the most money. but has there ever been an official announcement?

Regards Castore, nothing would surprise me

I think it’s been circulating in the media they’re getting a bigger fee. If that’s the case we should reconsider our position. And yet another question mark against our commercial department
